Overflowing...

Well it has been our goal for just over a year now to have not only a fish pond in the back yard, but to also have an upper pool that flows into the lower one. This month we got it!!! I can't get enough of being outside, and hearing the relaxing sound of water flowing. As I look at my life, I see it much like this pool, with blessings constantly flowing - I love the reminder that the water garden gives me. It is a joy to be outside with so many reminders of the goodness of God in my life. So here are the pictures...
 Loving it outside.
 I think this is a moth - I thought it was kind of neat and it appeared as I was filling my pond.
 There it is - from the north. You can see the water flowing from the upper pool into the dark hole beneath which is the lower pool. I've got a few more flowers to put in pots to complete the garden and we have one more floating ornament to add.
Here is the completed pond from above. Who knows what I might like to do still, but I love how it has turned out so far. I love the sound of the running water, it is not only relaxing but soothing and it makes it that much more enjoyable to be outside in the yard. I can only imagine the satisfaction and joy the Savior must have felt as he created this earth for us and looked and it was 'good'.
