Our orchard!

Our trees arrived on Friday! (Happily the first day of a four day weekend for EVERYONE!

We were pretty excited. Josh had dug some holes.We soaked them all overnight.
We dug some more holes. I got to tuck each tree in and cover up its roots and tell it we were excited it was there and do grow lots of good fruit for us (I am sure Josh thinks it was silly, but I wanted them to know how happy we were they are here!)


 So here is our little orchard: (plum, apricot, two cherry, two apples, almond, nectarine, pluot (plum and apricot). Yum!!!
(Look hard and you can see our little stick trees - they will grow big this year!) They are all in the front yard, except for the two apples which we planted next to the other trees along the fence in the backyard.


Also, my husband is the most handy! Apparently our front door hardware was screwed in wrong in the beginning and since then, some screws have come loose (and been lost).
 And there was no replacement the right size! So after taking two door handware completely apart and figuring out the problem (and that it can be easily fixed) - he found the right part on amazon and hopefully it will be here tomorrow. It still locks, so now we have a little ventilation hole!



Hair

So the other day Josh cut Moo's hair (hey why not get him use to buzz cuts now! Save money!)

Then, after a Monday holiday of playing at the Korth's he comes home and tells me that he needs a hair cut. I say no and go about my stuff.
Then that night, he appears with this...


It has not been cut - no stubble. I didn't hear any un-due screaming - did he pull out THAT much hair by himself???
