We're selling our sweet, little house and moving because of my husband's new job. We have looked briefly at homes for sale in the town where we're moving. The town is actually relatively "young." As HUGE fans of old houses, it's been interesting to find out that there aren't many of those in this town. Most of the homes have been built in the last 25 years. As we peruse the internet looking at various houses, there's one thing that we've noticed. Most homes do not have mature trees growing on their lots. Of course, this makes total sense since the homes are newer. Since we've only lived in older homes, we've always enjoyed mature trees with shady yards. So, when we move, one of my first tasks will be to plant trees around our house. Hopefully, we'll live there for years and years and years and get to watch them grow and eventually enjoy their shade. I've gotten spoiled here at 330 Lynn Drive because we have shade trees growing all around our home. It's been DELIGHTFUL for when our kiddos play outside, and it's also been easy on the wallet! The shade from the trees help us use less energy to cool our house in the spring and summer.

The TALL trees in our backyard! I couldn't get tops of the trees in the picture because they're SO HUGE! |

These pictures were taken at 2:00 pm on one of the hottest days (low 90s) that we've had in about 6 weeks. Yes, it IS the end of September, and it's almost Fall! No, I don't know why we're having 90 degree weather! :) I digress. You will enjoy the beauty and shade from these fabulous trees at 330 Lynn Drive!

Enjoy a fun afternoon in the shady backyard! |
