as we were out yesterday evening planting the new tree, i took some pictures of other spots in the yard so you can see how it's coming back to life. definitely a good thing to consider with easter coming up this weekend.
here's brian watering the new red haven peach tree. 
our forsythia (i didn't take the time to look up that spelling) in our side yard...you can also see our "garden box," which is in pretty poor shape.
this is an old plum tree (one that was here when we moved in) that is starting to blossom. 
our burgundy plum tree seems to be doing well. it has several blossoms on the verge of opening up. 
and finally, this is our flowering quince tree. i think this one will be really pretty once more of the blossoms are open. past the quince tree, you can see some "green things" starting to come out of the ground. my thinking is that these are bulbs, perhaps tulips, but there are still no flowers. it's all a bit mysterious since everyone else's flowers seem to be up and blooming already. so maybe they're just nice green leaves? we also have a nice supply of green onions growing there. does anyone have any really good green onion recipes?

You Westerners sure are liberal in your definition of trees. Out East we call those sticks :)
I'm thinking it might be a while before you get any peaches out of that tree.
Things are definitely growing out of the soil thar in Utah-tah! Your forsythia is loverly. I haven't always been fond of it. It often looks "out-of-control"! But in recent years that look has grown on me. I gotta get out and take pictures of our Paw Paw trees!
love the yard - and one day i'll love eating the peaches off your tree. do you miss the dogwoods?
