Bought house in August 2007. Guy before was avid gardener but had 3 years of overgrowth and pine needles in back and everything was over grown in front and have been cleaning it out. Most of stuff I have identified myself but a few things I would like some info on and checking to see if i was correct in my assumptions. Heres the picks, let me know what you think.

If they don't come up let me know and I can email them.

Can't help you with some of them, but...
Up north the second is known as "silver dollar". If you hate where they're growing, yank them out and save some of the dollars (the seeds are in them) and then plant the seeds in an buried pot. See if you like them and go from there.
Your berry plants are just holly -- one plain, one variegated. They out-grow the cute stage, and they will grow outside of designated location.
The English ivy, the one you hate, grows out of control and is perhaps better rooted and used in planters as a ground cover, low growing planting. They hang very nicely and are a pleasant addition for planters.
As far as the succulent grassy things, I've seen them before but don't remember their names. I don't remember them being particularly intrusive--they sort of keep to themselves and will sprout a lily-like stem of flower.
Good luck with your garden...

the second photo is of the money plant-you can look at this google image for more info.
