In the Land of Laura.: Another Project.

Last week, my parents & I, went to a nursery looking for plants. Needless to say, they had Koi Ponds throughout the entire place. & I decided that MY backyard needed a little aquatic action! :) This is what I want it to look like.----------->

So after begging my dad, saying "Oh please, Oh please, Oh please!" about a thousand times. He said..........MAYBE!!! Which in my book is "go for it!" So I did my research, got some prices, & now I have to present my findings to the warden(aka dad). Using my kindergarten style drawing skills, I drew a picture of what I want my "goldfish" pond to look like.

Yes, I know I said "goldfish" not "koi" & here's why......1) Koi are more expensive, & the less money my dad has to spend the more likely he'll be to pay for it! 2) Koi jump! As in they JUMP out of the pond, & DIE. So why spend $5-$25 dollars on a fish that's gonna commit suicide??? & 3) I'm really a goldfish person. Always have been & always will be! :)..........

During my research I found this cute Butterfly Pond Kit. & I'm really hoping to get it! Also I found this Cute Water Spitter! It's a duck! The spitter is not only cute, but it helps aerate the pond, so the fish get oxygen! <----- that's definitely the "new" thing I learned today!

Anyways I've found the perfect spot in my backyard to put it! I have a rabbit cage there right now, but we're in the process of rearranging the yard. But at least the soil I plant the pond in will be fertile. (ewwww)

& last but not least I have decided on the plants I want for my mini pond. :)

Waterlilies of course!
