Koi Pond – small update adding plants

by | kittens, koi pond, Zoey | 7 comments

Not much has progressed with our koi pond since we first started. Life gets in the way. But I did manage to pot up some plants for the pond today. Also, I noticed we have baby fish!! I’m so excited! I can’t believe they’ve made it with no where for them to hide, so that kinda spurred me on to do the pots. I had the plants there and waiting on me, just hadn’t done it. Now I’m so glad I did. I am quite pleased with the way they look and maybe it will push my hubby back into “pond mode”… haha

Anyway, enjoy the pics 🙂

Here’s a picture I took today of the twins Thunder and Lightning. Can you believe how much they’ve grown? They are 10 months old now and look like regular cats, not the cute cuddly little fur balls they were. But I still love ’em. They’ve been booted outside, so I don’t get many pics of them anymore.

And look at Zoey posing just as pretty as a picture.

Happy Friday and Happy Independence Day Weekend everyone!
