Buying trees

I decided in a cloud of drugs (post nerve cauterization) that it was past time for us to buy tree for the front yard. This last months home teaching message was that the best time to plant a tree is twenty years ago. A.K.A don't put off the important stuff.  So we have been talking lots about actually planting trees, and fixing up the front yard.

I insisted that I was not in TOO much pain, and that we HAD to go after dropping Kaylee off to just look at trees. And then once there I insisted we buy trees and schedule a delivery. And  since Jon loves me and often humors me and my crazy ideas we bought a couple of trees.

We got a Tipu and a Mesquite. Both fast growing desert trees.

Poor kiddo just wanted his Mama to hold him. I was close to tears myself (way over did it…), and REALLY needed drugs and an ice pack. BUT this trip was worth it! We have trees coming and are now on a time crunch to get rid of the stumps and fix the flower bed and irrigation in the yard.  Two weeks, we have two weeks!
