Garden take over

About a month ago, these seeds blew in and landed all over everything, the streets and yards were covered. My gutters on the house were packed full! Full of these:

These seeds covered the yard last year to. Only this year, the conditions must be perfect because they have turned into this:
You can even see them coming up in the lawn. I have no clue what they are, but I know I do not want them. I have been weeding every day for at least 30 minutes for almost two weeks, but I still have not gotten rid of them. They are so thick and there are so many seeds that I am getting rid of them as they sprout, but they are beating me. Lovely excuse to be outside when it not raining though!
Cheers,
Carolyn

  1. You need to leave one so you know what they are!!! What a disaster for you!! We also have a very strange weed that has popped up all over our yard this year. I think it was the excessive rains that we had.
