We called a tree man to haul away our big tree that blew over. It was so nice to talk to someone that had a vast knowledge about trees because I know nothing. Apparently our tree blew over because it had a disease which means probably the other 3 trees that are the same kind out there also have that disease. Sad news. We've had a dead tree in our front yard for a couple of years now so I started asking him what kind of tree would look good there and how much would it cost? Jon thought about it and said, "I think I would like to get a tree for Father's day." That made me quite happy because it's a practical gift and I'm a practical girl. There's something exciting about planting a tree. Maybe because you know it's going to grow up with you in the house (Hopefully). The kids were very excited too. Happy Father's Day Jon!

Yay for trees. That reminds me of the book, "The Giving Tree." I bet yours will be the same!
