Backyard Fortress!


Our new backyard is huge! We currently have two mulberry trees which Mommy and Daddy have mixed feeling about. They are great now - full and lush wish lots of room under the branches for two little boys to chase each other around in and play fort inside.


However, next spring when they blossom they will also be covered with berries. This is great if Mommy plans to do lots of canning and baking. This is not so great if we have little boys smashing berry juice into their clothes, as well as the floors, carpet and furniture. We hate the thought of cutting down trees just for the sake of cutting down trees. However, if they stop becoming beautiful foliage and become more of a nuisance, we may have to think about plan B.
