First there was a little bit of sidewalk chalk action.



Then... the planting.
But first I have to back up.
Three and a half years ago BJ and I moved into our house on five acres of land... not knowing that an obsession would slowly begin growing. And growing. (Side note: what do you do when the obsession IS GROWING? You plant things. LOTS of things.) It's a little over the top the amount of trees that have been planted, with trees for our landscaping, the orchard project and the white-pine privacy fence that will hopefully exist in 2025. Every year we get at least 100 of these white pines delivered (for just $35, thank you Indiana DNR) that then have to be actually put in the ground.
Thankfully this year our friend Chapman came to help BJ out with the project while I hung out with the little dude. After Canaan and I returned home from a little shopping trip & left our artistic mark on the driveway we joined the guys and the dog in the yard.
I love this picture (as sad as it is), because it so honestly reflects the new reality for poor Zoe.

A little unsteady on this uneven muddy ground.

Finally made it to Daddy to be a big helper.

Checking out Daddy's fancy new orchard fence (ie last summer's big project).

And finally, the bulbs we neglected to plant in the fall that decided to bloom with our without our help.
