Earth Day

In celebration of Earth Day, we planted a Wild Plum Tree in the yard at home. These trees are plentiful around here. You can actually get small ones growning underneath big ones and just plant them, which is exactly what we did! They grow pretty fast and are very attractive trees. We had two in the front yard at our previous home. They are still growing strong.

And of course playing in the dirt would not be complete without running into a few worms...

If worms could speak, I bet you they would be giving us what for after disturbing their home!!!

Into the ground the little Plum Tree goes

and with a whole lot of praying

we'll watch it grow and grow

Where does the time go?

What a difference after 4 years! My little buddy has really grown. In the first picture he was age 3 and he is currently age 7 in this next picture.

The pictures were made at Botanical Gardens in Huntsville, Alabama. Same little frog still resides there! Has the frog shrunk or has AJ grown a lot? We visited here during Spring Break in March. They have GIANT BUGS plus an area you visit where you suddenly become very small!
