Ryland and Reed love to shake this white crepe myrtle tree that is planted by the parking lot at the gym. Every day when we leave, the boys grab the tree and shake with all their might. They love it when all the blooms fall off like snow.
I mentioned that they should come home and try to shake our tree to see if they could make it snow. Ryland was on a mission, and he went straight to the back yard to try. He wasn't very successful, because our tree is a little bigger. Then the wheels started to turn...
I kept my eyes on him, because I knew he was up to something. He drug the mini trampoline over and propped up a sand bucket. He climbed up on the handles and into the tree.
Notice Reed carefully observing in the photo above, and now see how he has turned around looking for me.
After watching Ryland, Reed attempted to climb the tree, but he needed a little help. Daddy came home just at the right time to help lift him. The boys shook the limbs with all their might, and it snowed purple blooms.
