Obviously I post a lot of pictures of frogs. I know I won’t be able to keep up posting a daily photo forever (though if I stockpile enough I suppose I could make it through winter…) – but they are so darn cute and the whole #dailyfrog thing took root on my twitter account and before you know it I created a blog and started writing run-on sentences for all to see.
But WHY do I do it? Hm.
It started with finally getting our back yard, which had been a dirt and weed pit, landscaped. In the summer of 2010 we had a patio, waterfall, stream, and pond installed. It was ridiculously exciting and I worked from home just to be able to watch the progress:
future waterfall and stream

- woohoo, water flowing
It wasn’t until much later we built the deck (trex!) with the help of friends and family:
Ken finishing the bridge over the stream
our little pier around a boulder
we still have to do the fascia, though
Summer 2011 we got a 2nd flagstone patio installed and some fake grass (which is all kinds of awesome), and a FENCE!

our fake grass patch, and FENCE being installed (yay, privacy!)
fence posts are trimmed with solar lights.
Sometime during all this, a frog moved into our pond, where we had some fish and plants:
This guy moved in and I managed to get one photo through binoculars using my phone.
Sadly, he also moved out. So this spring I ordered tadpoles…. (continued in next post)
