Before and After

On the left, is a picture from 2009 when we still had a beautiful mulberry tree. The tree gave us plenty of mulberries each year to throw in pancakes and scones, but we had to cut it down because the roots were knocking down the retaining wall into our neighbor's yard.

On the right, you can see that David already planted an apricot tree and behind it is the stump from our beloved mulberry tree. Early this spring, along with the apricot tree, David also planted a peach tree. We'll have to post updated pictures of the new trees, as they have lots of leaves now.

Below, the picture on the left was taken in the summer of 2009 prior to the removal of the mulberry tree. On the right, is what the garden looked like last weekend.

Here is a picture of our lot last summer - covered in weeds.

and here is the picture of the garden taken last weekend. Both of these pictures were taken from our second floor window.

Last, but not least on the left is our Naomi in 2006 when she was just a little kitten. On the right, you will see that she has grown into a large cat.
