Our yard is an Eden.<\/p>\n

The pink tree in front of our house bloomed for our anniversary. It looks like the tree is covered in pink crepe paper flowers. It seems we’re always meant to have pink blossoming trees in our yard.

For me, the anticipation has felt almost like Christmas. What shade of pink will those buds be? WHEN will our tulips come through the ground? Wow, the previous owners loved tulips!<\/p>\n
