We have this massive oak tree in our front yard that has some decay in it. We've been worried about it for a few years now since there are some major limbs that hang over the house. We had some arborists come look at it and they suggested to have it down.
It was bittersweet because we really hate to see a beautiful oak tree go, but we do feel more relieved now.
It was very entertaining watching the men work--pretty amazing!
Can you imagine having this job?!? Yikes!! I think he's taking a break!
Last limb!! We couldn't believe that they had the whole tree down and the stump was ground in one day!!
Here's the house with no tree!! Pretty sad. We have lots of sunlight, though. This is a big change for us and one we'll have to get used to! We have a big landscaping job ahead of us this spring!! I know Chad's mind is spinning with ideas!! Unfortunately, we didn't finish all the work on the outside of the house that we had planned to do before Grayson got here. We still need to hang new shutters and hardware soon. That will help! We'll keep you updated on the progress of the yard.

Wow!! that is crazy looking the way that guy was at the very top of the tree. It looks like it has changed the whole look of your yard and house. I can't wait to see what Chad will do with it.
Did you shed a tear? I know everytime we were there, chad would sadly say, one day we are going to have to take that tree down. I guess its out with the old and in with the new. I saw that Chad lost all his landscaping around the tree also. :( Such a sad day. Maybe y'all can now take advantage of the sunlight. Let us know when Grayson gets here!
I'm anxiously checking your blog everyday to see if there is any news on Grayson's arrival! I'm praying for you girl!
