Mourning our tree

For those of you faithful readers who were frantically searching the internet to help us identify our brand new tree -- never mind! I arrived at our homesite today to see a very tragic (or maybe "dramatic" is the better word!) Emilie lamenting the loss of our brand new tree.



You know how I mentioned we were excited because we were supposed to get a lot of rain last night (which would help our lawn)? Well, it also stormed this morning, and apparently our newly planted tree just couldn't hack it. But this is not without a silver lining...the storms that are blowing through right now created a very vivid rainbow.
