Cute little one :) just be careful about him get into the pond, I know you are probably plan for that already. :) I have a 3.5 yo boy too :). My son enjoyed the fish almost as much as I do, I'm sure yours too!

I showed your pond to my husband and told him I want one, he will have to find me a land and I'll do all the work ;)

Thanks Nepen, Tyler will be 3 next month. He's sure we put all the rocks in the wrong place, because he is consistently trying to throw them into the center of the pond...

Stream and pond look awesome. Whole place does actually. Sorry if this makes me sound silly but being from Michigan, I have no familiarity with the types of grass down in Texas... are those small strips of grass real grass? I assume so but had to ask.

Welcome! Nice pond -- all your hard work has paid off!

Obviously you've read through other posts, 'cause you already know that we LOVE pictures!

What kind of weather do you have out there?

Thank you dieselplower! Actually I took the easy way out and had artificial turf put down around the pond. I wanted to spend the weekend enjoying the backyard not mowing the grass. It was $$$ and looks quite real, except in the winter, when the green looks a bit out of place...
