The pond has totally changed the feeling of our backyard. It used to be on really hot days, we'd spend only a little time back there and then head back into the air conditioning. But now, with the sound of the waterfalls and taking a little dip from time to time we can spend the whole day out there if we want. So we've created our own mini-pool! Love it! These are some pictures from our little 4th of July party. It was 104 here that day - and the pond really helped people stay cool. Everyone was sitting around the edge with their feet in the water. As a last minute touch the day before the party, I got 5 bags of play-sand from Home Depot and spread it all around the flagstone patio around the pond. It's like going to a beach back there now. That's the latest!
