A few weeks ago, the Hubs and I went out to my dad's to collect some random trees that have sprouted throughout his property with the intent to move them over to the in-laws. These trees have been growing for a couple of years and
Farmer E just didn't have the heart to pull them, but with 10 acres of woods, certainly doesn't need them. My fabulous in-laws live on 10 acres as well, but their property doesn't have quite the same tree content. So this weekend, we headed to Manchester (big surprise) to get the trees in the ground. The poor babies were living in buckets in the city, and with winter knocking on our door, I knew they needed to get in the ground. Luck was on our side, as the weather this past Saturday was 60 degrees and sunny.
I love the country. Can't wait to ditch my city life and raise some babies where they can run!

the doggies just love the country, too
wide open spaces- they are in HEAVEN
It amazes me in 20 years, I will look at these trees and remember the day we planted them. I will watch them grow and flourish. They will, one day, provide shade for our kids and dogs to play beneath on hot summer days. And during Fall, will dot the landscape with beautiful colors. Grow babies, grow!
A huge thanks to the Hubs who did all the work while I mostly played.
