With an aching heart...

"Time is passing. Yet, for the United States of America, there will be no forgetting September the 11th. We will remember every rescuer who died in honor. We will remember every family that lives in grief. We will remember the fire and ash, the last phone calls, the funerals of the children."
                        -President George W. Bush

Our New Tree

For Labor Day, Chris decided to dig up the dying bush in our front yard and replace it with a new alive one. So after he tore it out, we were off to the nursery to pick out a new bush. While we were there, I convinced him to try a fruit tree instead. So, ta-da! Our new dwarf blood orange tree!

Isn't it cute? And someday, it''ll be a real tree! :) Though I know it doesn't look like it, I even helped Chris plant it. I have the sunburned neck to prove it!
