Today was tree trimming day. Or, go broke while watching a crew of 5 guys remove about half of our trees (much needed trimming & pruning, though). It was expensive, but they did a good job and did what we needed done. The trees were too close to the power lines, the roof, the garage roof, the ground, etc. There were lots of dead branches that needed to be removed. Owning a house is great, but days like this make it an expensive proposition. Oh well, we do enjoy the shade of the trees, the convenient place to hang our hammock, and we also appreciate the fruit (pears, plums, apples, walnuts; well, maybe not the walnuts since they're just too much work to crack!) , so it's worth it.
It's nice having Loren home today. I watched Calvin/played w/him/took him grocery shopping, etc. this morning. Then after his nap (during which we watched a movie), Loren took him and has been playing with him. It's really cute to watch them together. I've been using the time to start making dinner, work on the laundry, and catch up on my blog :).
