Sunday morning, me and my husband visited a nursery.  We were in search of a tree for our front yard.  We walked through rows and rows of trees.  We wanted one that was moderate to fast growing.  It had to be hardy to survive the Nebraska weather.  This was a big decision.  This tree would be with us for a long time.

We found it.


It's a Red Oak.  It's suppose to grow about two feet a year.

I smile every time I look at it.


It looks so small in our front yard.  And a little lonely.  But I think it's really cute.  And hopefully in a few years it will grow and branch out.  And I won't remember our yard without it.
