Communication Ooooops...

I guess MSH and I had a bit of a communication oooops this weekend. Nothing earth shattering but I am in mourning for the redtips that once stood tall in front of our house! It all started with me saying that we needed to get the new Sago Palms in the ground. We had gotten three of them on clearance at HEB before Ike. We talked about where we wanted to plant them and agreed that they should go in sorta a triangle shape around the tree in the front yard. We already knew that we had to cut down the two bushes that grew on each side of the front door because they got beaten down by Ike and they were laying out flat. These are the items that we agreed on.

Sunday when we were coming in the house from church, I mentioned that the redtips needed trimmed back, because they had really grown in the last few weeks. The is the item that we some how did not communicate very well on.

Sunday afternoon after the football game was over, MSH said he was going outside and did I want to come help. I said no because I did not want to get hot and sweaty right before church.
He went outside anyway and did some work.

When we were leaving for church I got a mild shock when I saw the redtips. They are now about 18 inches high. Sunday morning they were about 7 feet tall. At least we know that since they grow like weeds, it won't be that long before we are having to trim them again!

With the bushes that were either trimmed or cut down the front of the house looks like it did when it was new and the bushes were small.

I will be picking out two new bushes soon to replace the one that Ike destroyed.

The Browns won last night! I slept through the win, so I found out this morning! I am happy for MSH and his beloved Browns.
