The TREE....the TREE




The tree!!!

The tree!!

Can you believe I'm going to show you the tree again this year?

I can't help myself.

I walk outside and I think Oh my.....the tree is so beautiful...

I MUST show this to my friends.......again......

And look to the far left.....I have another one just like it....:)

I can't wait until they are both large and flank my driveway....sigh...


I have an unhealthy attachment to this tree.

What would I do if something happened to it?


And don't think that y'all are the only "lucky" ones that get to see it.

I will load facebook up with photos of it.


I will figure out how to "slip" the tree into all of my conversations.

Friend:  Hey do you want to eat lunch Friday?

Me:  Sure, that sounds great....I hope I can find my sunglasses

because the bright pink blooms on my TREE will blind you....lol.

Friend: huh?


And if I have to drive across town and pick you up I will 

conveniently "forget" my purse and go back to my house.

Friend will say...."wow, that tree is beautiful!"

And I will casually say.....what tree?  Oh that tree....

yes it is pretty isn't it....:)


You will drive by and see me in my gown and robe because I have to get a 

morning "first light" photo of the TREE.

You will see me standing in the middle of the road so I can get a

wide angle shot of the TREE.


Friend:  Did you watch Glee last night?

Me:  No....I didn't ...but you know what rhymes with Glee

my TREE!


I know you want to know.....

It's a Kwanzan Cherry Tree.

But I should call it 

My Spring Obsession....:)

Thanks for hanging in there with me

as I told the story of my love for my TREE!

(see there it rhymes with everything)
heehee
the tree...

help me....I can't stop....

  4. You can find me out in the yard in my night gown quite often...and I don't have a beautiful tree as an excuse :) And speaking of trees, what a beauty she (he?) is! I would gawk at it all day if it was in my yard :)

  5. Does it get cherries? I planted one that did not get cherries, with a name at least similar to this. I loved it but my husband made fun of me, and it. He said we'll get non-bearing tomato plants next and maybe non bearing green beans. He so upset the tree that it committed suicide. Died of embarrassment. So sad. You tree is lovely so I assume your profile picture will change to the tree?
