Braden's Tree

On Saturday, Jon and I went to Lowe's to buy a new screen door and mailbox. (Braden kicked a soccer ball through the old door!) While we were there, I decided to look at the trees. Braden had brought home a sapling in the spring that promptly died. I've been promising him since then that he could have a new tree.
Apparently, he thinks trees should grow super fast and was wanting the tree for climbing purposes. This tree isn't going to be climbed anytime soon!

Here's Braden with his new Eastern Redbud.
