Caitlin's Tree is In

I went to the nursery and chose a tree, and wrote about it here and here. Well, on Memorial Day, our landscaper came out and prepared the bed and planted her tree. We should see blossoms in July and then in the fall we'll see the leaves turn. I love that we can see the tree from our front window of our home. And I love that it lives.

The tree was a gift from a group of DH's colleagues and so I took this picture of the butterfly sympathy card they sent us.
