The Same Blog But Better.... And The Tree In Our Yard

Well, last night, I awoke at 1:45 and to no avail, I didn't return to the bed until around 4:30. So, about 3:00, I decided to get up and make my Christmas list that Sassy has been asking for. I ended up here, on my blog instead. I looked through ALL of my posts since the beginning and had so much fun watching Peggy grow and our lives change from two young people to a family of three. I did notice before I had Peggy, I made more of an effort to document the momentous occasions on our lives with both pictures and WORDS. So, from now on, I am going to make a concerted effort to write more so our family will have a better account of our lives. Okay, now to the tree. Two falls ago, Fall 2008, Sassy showed up at our house with a Ginko tree. I had no idea what kind of tree it was and why we needed one. Sassy went on to tell us that her neighbor had one and it had the most beautiful foilage in the fall. This is the first year we have had enough leaves to take pictures of the precious tree. Steven decided that every year, we should take a picture of Peggy and our other future children in front of the tree during fall. I do think it will be a nice way to show how the children grow and how the tree grows. I hope you enjoy viewing the pictures of this tree as much as I have enjoyed looking out my kitchen window to our backyard at the Ginko tree.
