My Surprise!

Greg brought me home a surprise to other night! I was so excited because I guessed what it was from his hints, and I've been asking for a tree in our backyard since we moved in three years ago. But, Greg hasn't wanted to put one in because it might block our view.



Don't get me wrong, it is a nice view. (It's better than the pictures show.)
But, I was not expecting to get what I got. My first words were, "are you serious? It's a dead cactus."
It's cool, though. It's actually a petrified saguro. Greg reasurred me that it is way cool and I like it. It just wasn't what I was expecting. But, now I have a tree, I mean a cactus! :)
Hugging my cactus! I love it!

Thanks honey for my great tree! I love you!

Interesting date on your pictures. Very futuristic! Year 2037!
I must admit, if my husband had told me that he brought me a tree I would have expected something alive. :) With your "tree" I would probably call it a decoration. It IS cool though. :)
