Another TREE down...and a trip for me to PROVO...2 blogs in 1

Yes this is our front yard, and that is another tree split in half...this picture was taken monday morning after it snowed for 12 hours on Sunday (yes the second week in OCTOBER...i was very very mad). So we decided to put in ANOTHER firepit...
no no not really, our neighbor Paul volunteered to come over and help us try to save our tree. So a few bolts, hours, and rope later, our tree is at least still standing. We're not sure it'll work or how long it'll last before another wind comes and blows it over, but we couldn't bare loosing another tree.

Friday I spent the day and night in Provo. I sure love going to Provo. Friday night we watched Dan's intermural softball game. He played great but unfortunatly his team lost. But it was fun to watch and cheer him on.

so many trees - firepit in the front yard - what a great idea. Great picture of you and P and also great action photo of Dan.

Save yourself a future nightmare and rip that thing out now. It will make great firewood for you other pit.

Wow! Snow, trees splitting, b-days, sleep-overs, softball games, dog sitting. You guys have been busy. No wonder it took you so long to post!:)

Looks like fun. By the way, darling picture of you and Parker. You're like super model mommy!

Nice cut, Dan. Sorry that the much sought-after intramural championship continues to prove elusive. You should have made Parker cheer louder, Wendy.
