A week or so ago we had lots of fun watching one of the trees in our backyard get cut down. My reasons for wanting it cut down were, first of all, that it was weeping on one side and was dying. And secondly, I wanted more sun in the back yard! Most people think I'm nuts, but we have three BIG trees left that still give us plenty of shade.
Here's what the tree looked like before anything was cut out. The swing was relocated to another tree in the yard.
Josh took the older two up on the "cherry picker" before the fun began.
Two men worked for 4 hours "topping out" the tree.
Almost done the topping out process.
Of course we had tons of mess to clean up. Olivia and Garrett helped as much as they could! It was a lot of hard work, but I'm so happy with the result! The video of the tree falling is the next post down!
