New Trees
Corrine and I have been looking at getting some trees to put around our house. We got a flyer in the mail, from a Stark Brothers. We have also heard from a few people the Stark Bros is a good company and have great products, so we decided to order some trees. We order 8 different trees, cause there was a pretty good sale on them. So we got 3 dwarf Gala Apple trees, 2 semi-dwarf golden delicious trees, 2 peach trees, and a nectarine tree. So we are going to turn into a general family fruit farm. Maybe next year we will get some cherry trees to add to the orchard.
Anyway, the trees arived on Friday, and we had hockey games all weekend, and I help Scott with the DestinationImagination regional competition, on Saturday, so I just got around to planting them today. So I have planted 2 of them thus far tonight. I still have 6 more to go but I think they are going to look nice. We are going to put the apple trees in the front yard and the peach and nectarine trees in the back yard. We are looking forward to going into the yard and picking our own fruit, and being able to eat it straight from the tree.
