In Bloom

A duck pond.

We couldn't resist putting the decoys in the thawed out pond. We'll see how many passerbys take a second glance! 

Frozen

It's been really cold here, and it's only getting colder! Yesterday afternoon Matilde noticed the pond had frozen over. I guess I haven't noticed just how cold it has been lately. I feel like it snuck up on us. One day it was fairly mild and the next it was below freezing! I just hope we get snow this year.
