Ive been in the design phase of my pond for a week or two now, But I'm set on the shape and depth.
It was a gorgeous day outside today and the utilities have been marked now for about 2 days.
So I thought it may not be a bad time to start this pond! So the ground breaking ceremony officially took place today.
I even had a crowd to cheer me on!!
But we all know why she was really there, just to supervise! LOL when I took this picture I actually said "Smile for everybody on Koiphen!"
So the digging commenced for about 2 hrs… and I got about 2 feet down in one section, of course I probably could have done more had I not been jamming out to the 90s pandora station!! I tell you what nothing motivates you for digging like a little Celine dion-"My heart will go On"…

^^^Thats pretty much how I looked but with a shovel! Anyways in between 90s hits and stopping to snap a pic every now and then I actually did get some work done.
And… after the 2 hrs was up my pregnant wife had to get some food and our son woke up from his nap… so Ill just pick up where I left off tomorrow…
Not a lot done but Im happy to have something!
….
I guess watching from the window makes you tired
More to come tomorrow!!!
