More Things to Do here - Prepping for a Wedding

 Last year a friend of my youngest asked if they could hold their wedding at our house. 


We've had several weddings here. Plenty of room outside. But it has been a while since we have help a wedding here. And we have added lots of parts to the yard. Fenced gardens for blackberries, raspberries and boysenberries. Plus one for blueberries. As well as one for grapes. And we have planted a lot of fruit trees. 


We have a section that has cactus and other prickley plants. An area with lots succulants.  An area where the tortoise lives - that has the shadehouse as well. An area for the pond and water turtles. 


There is a big old peppertree out front. I decided that is where the wedding will be held. Around the corner and the west side of the house, they can have the dinner. 

I am not sure what all they want to do since the person helping plan it has not shared many details. So it has been a guess for me. They did share that people should not wear heels because it is mostly grass. Well not really, no grass, just weeds which as already turned brown. I have been watering them but it has not been super successful. A few more little green weeds have popped up. 

I was going to have my dogs stay at a kennel but I don't want them gone for a whole weekend. So we are going to clear an area on the northwest side of the yard and put in a little fenced area.  I am hoping they don't bark too much.
