Watching a tree being cut down

October 3rd Saturday
The neighbors up the street cut down a tree in their front yard. We watched it from start to finish. It was really cool!

Cea makes Dinner

October 2nd Friday
This is just a cute picture of Mircea making dinner--tatertot casserole.
I cooked the meat, but she did all the mixing, dumping, and placed on the tatertots and cheese. That night Grandpa and Grandma came over to babysit, and ate the casserole with Cea and Casper. They all enjoyed it. Good Job Cea! You are a great cook, and a great helper!

The bestest Daddy in the whole wide world!

The pictures explain why he is the "bestest"!
Mircea loves her new play set, and so do I! We need to invite her friends and cousins over now to play! She keeps saying--they will be jealous!--I can't decide if they will be jealous because she has a cool play set, or if they are jealous because she has such a great dad?!?! :)


Isn't it awesome?!

Eagerly awaiting the finished product!

Casper and Mommy doing a bit of bouncing!
Thanks Cea for taking the pics! grin
Swinging on the swing--uh, Bry didn't have any S hooks, so at this moment there were some zip ties holding the swing on!

Casper has joined in his swing!
He is holding on tight as can be, but still having fun!
Great Job, Bryan!
That slide is quite fast and bouncy!

Our POOR tree *sob*

It is still May 6th (after all the artwork), Bryan came home in the evening, and a BIG branch of our beautiful flowering tree in our front yard had broken off! So we had to do an impromptu trimming of our tree. (Which meant a fast dinner, so we could get to Bible study on time.)
We are quite sad about this, as the tree looks a bit dorky now. Oh well, Obviously it had needed a trim, or it wouldn't have broken. It broke because we have been having a bit of wind and rain. While the rain isn't all that much of a surprise, the wind has been unusual!
Mircea helped her Dad with all the work, while Casper and I watched, and of course gave "helpful" commentary!


The tree with the big branch taken off and some others. (I really wish I had gotten a picture of the tree BEFORE this all happened, as it was looking so beautiful! Of course, I was waiting for a nice day to take the picture--next time, I will just take a picture!)

A huge load
The helpful load
More trimming *SOB*
Directing with a big stick
Trimming off the top (after our trimmers broke and we had to borrow the neighbors).
The final result (until we have more time, to cut off some stray branches).
If there is an easy way to go to the tree, and a harder way, guess which one Cea will pick!?!
