Tree Farm Beginnings!

I can hardly believe all the work that we have done on our tree farm, which, we have decided to name "Sorelle Tree Farm!" So many things have happened in the past few days. In fact, to tell all that we have done, I am going to start at the very beginning of my visit to Mineola, and retrace my steps all the way back to today.
Let's start at Wednesday. On Wednesday, we arrived at a filthy, dusty, grimy house. Luckily for us, my mom had expected this, she had completely stocked up on cleaners, disinfectants, rags, towels, bleach, and scrubbers. Yay mom! That day, we sprayed, scrubbed, wiped, and greatly improved the whole house. However, we still have quite a bit to do.
The next day, we had 50 cubic yards of dirt delivered. It was really cool to watch the big truck drive in and slide it's floors back and forth to push out the dirt! My dad used his new tractor to tear weeds and shrubs off the back house walls. We loaded the trailer with these shrubs a dumped them into a pile, which we will hopefully soon burn.
On Friday, we drove to Ada, Oklahoma. Here, we bought and loaded 1,000 potted trees onto a rental truck! We bought a bunch of different kinds: Spanish White Oak, Chinese Pistachio, Bald Cypress, Crete Myrtle, Sawtooth Oak, Loblolly Pine, and Southern Red Oak. This took pretty much all day, so we didn't get anything else done.
Yesterday, our friend, Mr. Mike Little, came over. This guy is practically superman! He helped us load up the trailer and drive all of the brush that my dad tore off the walls of the house into the fire pile. He also helped us pile up all of the broken brick that was laying around the house into a nice little pile. After this, we all unloaded the big truck that had taken the trees from Ada to Mineola. It was much easier unloading the trees than it had been to load them! We divided them up into species and placed them in ten tree by ten tree squares, it's a lot harder than it sounds! By this time, we were completely worn out, so we simply returned the u-haul truck, and called it a day.
Today, we are expecting some huge storms and tornadoes, so we didn't have a lot of time to work. Dad once again used his tractor to pull weeds and shrubs off the walls of the house, these weeds followed their brothers and sisters and were unmercifully loaded up into the fire pile. We are praying that our trees, which we have loaded into a shed, will not be ruined by the storms. In fact, to ensure this, instead of going home today, we will stay yet another night.
Being a country girl is a lot of work, but thankfully, I enjoy it! And even though there will be days when I will be tempted to grumble, I know that I can always turn to the Lord, for He alone can supply me with perseverance and strength.
