Tree Removal

Last Friday, we had the scary tree taken down in our backyard. It is really tall, scrawny, and leans in the direction of our house. Every time the wind would blow we would get nervous. A few years ago, we had someone out to cut down the dead branches and he told us it was just going to keep getting taller and taller. We decided we shouldn't risk another winter and had it taken down.

Will enjoyed watching it come down with Grandma and Grandpa. It had a lasting impression on him because he has talked about it every day since: "Tree up." "Down." "All gone."

Friday night we went downtown for dinner and to walk around for a bit since the weather was pretty pleasant. On Saturday, we went to the U of M game watch party at Eastbrook lanes. Will made a couple friends and a little girl tried to show him how to jump. He is really excited about the concept but hasn't mastered it yet. On Sunday, we went for a walk in the morning and then just stayed in to play.
