Planting trees with Dad 5-4-09

We got on a planting kick and decided to plant four trees throughout our yard. We planted a flowering pear in the front yard, a japanese maple on the side, and a weeping willow and fruiting pear in the back. So far, they all look like they are thriving, except the bradford pear. It may have a disease, but we'll wait it out and see. The boys had a great time digging holes with Matt (Dean kept busy eating dirt). It was a really tough job because there were a lot of boulders in the way, so it was basically chipping through rock. Glad it was them and not me :-)
