A more beautiful backyard

A couple weeks ago, we planted 3 new trees in our backyard. We pulled up an old slanted tree and a big bush first, then found spots for the new ones. Here is the bigger one and the one we are most excited about - a Red Autumn Blazing Maple tree...
We found some Willow trees clearanced for $7.50 while we were looking for the maple tree and grabbed those too...These are our 2 new willow trees. We might put a swing set in the middle of them one day...

Today we hung our new bird feeders too. We haven't painted them yet with a stain, but went ahead and found their new locations...each child is standing by their new bird feeder...


We also got a new lawn mower when we got the trees...which is very exciting! It is a push mower, but is self propelled. We have lots of hills in the front yard and now it is a breeze to walk up the hills with the new one. We are hoping the new lawn guy can help the grass look better too - we had out first Spring treatment the other day. We have little grass in the front and lots of weeds. We'll keep you posted.
