Help identifying Tree and Bush at new house

Can someone please help me in identifying a tree and a bush in front of my new house? I believe the tree to be a Weeping Higan Cherry or "Prunus Subhirtella 'Pendula'". The bush is the one that's getting me. The leaves resemble a marijuana plant and goes from a fiery red color in the spring to a dark green color in the fall. I have inlcuded pictures of both. Thanks.

Your shrub appears to be a japanese maple. Certain types will have beautiful red color in the leaves if they receive enough light. These can be small trees or large shrubs, depending on the variety and pruning habits. Congrats on the new house by the way...And welcome to the forum.
