I'll have some shade.... someday... I hope.

Last week I told you I bought a tree in honor of earth day. That and in honor of wanting trees :p I'm telling ya, when you live out in the middle of fauxprairie (prairie because it's flat for a mile and windier than heck), you really want some trees around you.

I live in the middle of a bean field. *really*
It's ok, unless of course you feel sorry for me and want to send me monetary donations to relocate me... or plant lots of trees. :p

Anyway, my trees came yesterday finally, and I wanted to share a couple photos with you. I ordered a summers red maple and with that I got a free empress tree. This is what the boxes will look like if you order:



They are fastened to the box on the inside so they don't flop all over the place.




This is the maple


And this is my new empress (free) tree:

such a big box for such a widdle tree! He's cute, and sitting on my counter with all the other trees waiting patiently for a few days break in the weather!

I'm starting to feel like maybe I should be building an ark.
