I have cried many times over this story--mostly due to laughing at my stupidity.
Here goes...
Once upon a time there was a beautiful lawn. The mother of the lawn took great pride in her green lawn. She fertilized it early and mowed it every week (even when it didn't need it). Then came some evil dandelions that started to spread like wildfire. Being a good mother, she decided to get rid of them.
Her father gave her some Weed-B-Gon and told her to spray it on her lawn. He said he sometimes doubles the mixture. She decided to take it to a different level and quadruple or even better then that--just pour the whole bottle in her sprayer without reading the instructions.
While spraying her lawn she thought "these nasty little things will have no chance of surviving" and so instead of covering the lawn once with weed killer--she went the extra mile and covered it multiple times.
A couple days later her lawn took a turn for the worst. The mother of the lawn saturated her lawn with a little too much love! The whole lawn was instantly dead. COMPLETELY DEAD! No chance of ever coming alive.
INTRODUCING our BEAUTIFUL GLOWING LAWN!!
Now onto the snake that LOVES my boys and our glowing lawn
(the backyard is only half dead--yea!)!! hehehe.

This is so something I would do... haha!! You are fantastic!!
You are right - I laughed outloud! I wish I would have seen it in the day-time when we were there! That is one of the best stories ever.
And the snake would creep me out. You and your boys are brave to get near it!
Ok, I admit, kinda peed my pants reading this!! Especially after hearing what a "kindly neighbor" you were and sprayed their lawn too! Bahhahaha!! I LOVE YOU JU!!!!!
Seriously hilarious...and pictures are worth a thousand words. That picture of your lawn makes me laugh every time I even think about it!
Dear Juliann,
If I was a Boise girl - I probably would've peed my pants. BUT. THAT. IS. STINKIN. HILARIOUS. Miss you Ju
I still laugh every time I think of it, by your description I didn't even have to put your address in the nav system, I found it by the color of the lawn! ... I can't believe the snake still LOVES your yard, ugg the snake, yuck, yuck, yuck. Good thing Reece is there to protect me!
Oh so sad! But hilarious too! It sounds like something I would do too. Hope you're doing well!
So I have to admit I have done the same thing! I was determined to get my grass back though, so I watered it everyday. Guess what.... the next summer I had green grass again. A true MIRACLE;]
I would have a heart attack with a snake in my yard.
