Timber!

 

...and down comes the giant-mostly-dead-tree in the backyard.  Let the renovation continue!  Bring on the garden and apple trees!  Yippee! (This is a new stump, not the one mentioned in the post from earlier this week.  Now they are both out of the ground!  Yay!) 
Oh, and also, Caleb reached a new milestone in his 8-year-old life.  He learned....to armpit fart.  Oh, yay... :)
