Bye Bye O'l Pine Tree


Donny working the crane




Look how high Daddy is....scary

Today Daddy brought his crane from the shop and cut down the old Pine tree in the front yard. It was really pretty pitiful. The middle part of the tree was dead and the top was still alive.... go figure. Mommy was worried it was going to fall on the house if we have to many more of those bad storms that came our way a few weeks ago. Our Great Grandmother, Otie, actually planted the little oak tree under the pine tree. It may be permanently small because it has grown under the pine tree for so long, but hopefully it will come around. Otie is actually what all the grand kids called her because no one could pronounce her real name, Oaxie. Which is where our little Oaxie got her name. This house was originally Jon's grandparents home and after they passed away and we moved to Mineral Wells we bought the house. It has been a continuous work in progress. We have lived here for 10 years and have never completely finished it. I just took a little walk down memory lane for those who read this that are not familiar with our story!:)
