Here are a few pictures of the huge pay loader that came last Saturday to help Jason get that really big white oak up (see picture from a few posts ago) We are very fortunate to know Gary, Ben calls him Gawee (so cute), and he brought over his rig and gave Jason a HUGE hand.
Katie and I have been busy planting some new flowers. Jason and I celebrated our
10th Anniversary. I bought us a Butterfly Bush. I've wanted one for a few years. I thought it would be sentimental to watch it grow as we continue to grow in our marriage.
Katie and Ben helped me dig the hole and while I was doing that, I got in the mood to do some serious gardening. So, I said, hmm I wonder what all these rocks are that are peeking out of the grass that border the flower bed in the back garden (The ones in front of the rock wall/porch). I started to dig and found beautiful rocks! I dug some more. I asked Walter to come outside and asked him. Well he said there was a rock path going all the way around that he had made for Gram but the grass grew over it. I was so excited! So I kept digging. I'm almost done. It looks lovely so far.
The kids keep finding a toad in our yard. They've named him Brownie. They've caught Brownie 3 times now. Lucky toad. He's gotten to go to Katie's class and to her friends house. They keep him in a habitat and teach him tricks! Yes tricks. They spin him on a sand toy, they put him in Ben's truck...I'll stop there.
Katie and her Brownie troop were in the town's Memorial Day parade. It was a beautiful day.
