planting a tree can't be that hard.....

So today was our big tree planting day. Melinda had grown me a little tree from a tiny twig at her house and brought it over last week. So, since the 40 days & nights of rain decided to stop~
it's tree planting day! I thought that it was kinda fishy that no one else had really planted any trees in their backyards, but oh do I get it now. ROCK. I mean big thick rock is about 8 inches down. I hit the rock and didn't exactly know what to do. I was gonna move my spot, but I was mad that I had already torn up my sod in that spot so I dug on. It took a while, but we did it! Here's the proof!

Success! Thanks Melinda! Now let's just see if I can keep it alive....

Next~ mow the yard.....

Nicholas LOVES mowing the yard!
