Zoo Fun & Landscaping

I am a bit behind on my blogging so I've got a couple things to catch up on! A few weeks back we decided to cut our cherry tree down in the back yard. It was a big tree in the perfect spot for shade. The problem? It was dead. Dead as can be.

When we first bought our house last year we were super excited about it, until spring came along. We waited and waited for it to bloom but it never happened. We then realized it was dead and had been for some time.

Josh recruited some of the men in his family and they got cutting. It only took them a few hours to get it down. We were grateful for their help! My dad came by later that day to help us pick up all the branches and get them organized. We have some awesome family!
Now that the tree is gone our backyard feels empty! We decided to plant an apple tree to fill in our yard a bit. Beckett is a good helper, especially if it has anything to do with dirt! His new gardening gloves are his favorite thing. He can't wait to put them on as soon as we go outside. Love him.


 Another fun thing we did this past month was go to the zoo. We went with my mom & sister at the end of our spring break. Beckett hadn't been since the beginning of last summer and had been asking to go. He has always loved animals. We had a good time, Beckett had the most fun, and that's what matters!
