Our backyard this time

 This is the look of our backyard this time. It is carpeted with yellow pecan leaves. We have one big pecan tree at the backyard and every winter it loses its leaves. It is a big job cleaning it up and time consuming. But I don't complain even if it is every year. The kids always help me doing the clean up as well as hubby. With the help of our leaf mulcher vacuum, it is much easier to get rid of them.

 We always use the mulched leaves in our vegetables garden and flowering plants too.
 As you can see, our pecan tree hasn't finished losing all its leaves yet, but it's almost there. We have to wait until most of its leaves will be on the ground before we can start doing the big clean up, otherwise, we gonna do a repeat clean-up, which I don't want to do. However, my  David has other plan in mind for he can't wait the clean-up day, and he started raking and piled the leaves since Wednesday to Friday.

The sweeper in our apartment always complains about cleaning the dry leaves... and also wants to cut the trees those drop leaves. But it’s wonderful to see ground filled with leaves. Even its tough to clean up, having the green yellow carpets around is good.
