Good morning, Laura ☕️ I love when you do your garden chores and let us hear the natural sounds. So relaxing, especially now with the waterfall. The sun ☀️ coming up over the pond is a spectacular sight 🤩 Excited to see Pedros work! Have a Blessed Day😊🐈

Beautiful Laura and Aaron sitting enjoying - wow that never happens! Chairs are the perfect addition to the perfect pond 💕💕💕

Good Morning from Maryland! The pond looks luscious! And that ground cover spilling over the rocks is going to be beautiful! I ordered the Polywood Adirondack chairs off of Amazon and love them! If I couldn't do Teak, I'd do Polywood! It's nice to see you sit for a minute! Can you show the pond at night? That pond looks like it's been established for years!

So funny, I thought the same thing regarding the boxes! One year in my home daycare I had ordered some new toys for playground & I used the boxes to make "box bots" they could slip over their head & holes for their arms, for the 3 boys in my daycare. They absolutely had a blast with them!

Good morning, Laura. What a beautiful way to start your day! You might want to think about how fast the children are growing before you order expensive furniture 🪑 in kid sizes. They’ll outgrow them in such a short while and in the meantime they have much more interesting places to sit and dream….the edges of the pond, boulders and tree trunks. Much more fun!

I had the same thought as you. Also, adding two more chairs may make the area look too cramped.

Anyone else dreaming of her garden 20 years from now. I hope Laura is still on youtube in the future. Promise us that what ever happens you put your garden online in 20+ years so we can see the mini forest garden you have created at its peak. You give so much inspiration and happiness to the world.

I was surprised they were adding the fish in so soon when the pond was being built. When one has an aquarium one has to wait until the water ‘settles’ in . I guess it’s different for outdoor fish/Koi.

Love how you left out the music while planting so we could hear the water and birds!

Oh Laura, the pond is just spectacular. The sound of the water fall would put me to sleep 😴💚 Happy Gardening 🧑‍🌾🍅🥕🥒🌶️🥬😅

Loved today’s video. Just Laura planting and the sound of nature. Such a gorgeous pond, looks so natural. Can’t wait to see the stone path!

The pond looks amazing! Kid-size chairs might be a better fit, but I wouldn’t waste the money. They grow so fast you’ll wish you had the larger size soon enough. Also, if Monica and her hubby come over for cocktails you’ll want the larger chairs. You could always put them in another section to enjoy a different view.

I shouldn't be jealous, but I am. Such a beautiful pond, vegitation, and Adirondack chairs. I love my Adirondack chairs.

Om goodness Laura, get you some Scuba booties with tread or some waiters for your pond work! Beautiful pond!!

I can just imagine Christmas around your pond

Just so beautiful..........love watching the pond settle in..........love the plantings around it.

My inner "groomer" was so satisfied watching you clean up the pond plants!

How fun to be a part of this excitement and love you share for gardening.🌸🌷🐟🌲

Absolutely stunning addition to your already beautiful property!

The sound of the running water is perfect!

I really love your pond area & looking so forward to seeing your new pavers added to the pond edge‼️Just such a beautiful peaceful area to enjoy‼️🥰❤️

Wow. That pond area is just stunning. It's coming along beautifully. Such a new learning curve on the care for pond plants. I had no idea that you feed water pond lilies. Sooo excited to see the plants fill out and bloom bloom bloom. That blue color is sooo cooling by the water.

Planting with the sound of the water is just so relaxing.👍🏻

I've noticed that too. She always wore that same color. Now she is changing it up.

So happy to see you planting plumbago. I have an area of it and really like it. It does spread (slowly & desirably) in my zone 7a more humid location. It is slow to green-up in late spring, so a good thing is to underplant it with a small daffodil, like tête-à-tête, or my favorite, Thalia.

Such a peaceful space. What a gorgeous addition to your garden. Those new chairs really suit the space perfectly.

Just love the natural look of teak furniture. So beautiful 🥰

Just so beautiful...love watching the pond settle in...love the plantings around it.

The pond area is so peaceful and lovely. I'm sure you would love to spend more time there! I certainly would. The plumbago is a perfect addition.💕

Beautiful blue addition to the pond area. Looks like your area gonna get the tail end of Hurricane Hilary. Nice cool down and some rain. Awesome

Maybe some waders might be in order for pond maintenance if that needs to be done when it gets colder. Hello from Queensland

Maybe the footrests/ottomans that go in front of the chairs? Loungers for you and Aaron and nice perches for the kids when they’re not in the pond.

The pond is so relaxing to see. Love to see the various plants for ponds.

Ceratostigma plumbaginoides an amazing plant. Recommended to all 🥰 It's not a fussy plant at all...I haven't watered mine in 6 months and we've not rained in PNW for except a scant couple of hours the last 5 months.

You are a good pond mommy.. you are doing awesome job, enjoy you guy's all the hard work you do every day a great way to relax you deserve the beauty of your pond the view spectacular. Bravo!

I bet the kiddos would love to play with the huge boxes

This has been on my heart since you got your pond so please take my story into consideration with your kids: My parents had a pool before I was born. It was fenced in and locked. I was also in swim lessons since I was 3 (it saved my life). They always said “don’t swim in the pool without someone with you.” This particular hot day my uncle was watching me (age4) and my cousin (also 4). We decided we wanted to go swimming. My uncle was in the front yard talking to my neighbor non the wiser of our intention. Me and my cousin put on our floaties and found away over the locked fence into the pool. I jumped in but my cousin did not. My parents said SOMEONE should be with me so my 4 year old brain thought my cousin was enough. I don’t know how long I was drowning but if I didn’t go to swim lessons and knew to push off the bottom of the pool I would be dead. My cousin somehow got out of the pool area, over the fence, and went to her dad. He asked “where’s Kierra?” And she said “swimming.” He rescued me but so many things could have gone wrong. I wanted to share my experience to give you a warning of how quickly and silent downing happens. Please be VERY watchful-especially of Samantha Grace.

Thank you for commenting this…it was on my heart…but thought I’d go and check the comments to see if I was the only one, that would bring *the negative stigma*. Im sure Laura and Aaron are aware of the dangers of having *a watering hole in the yard with their children….I personally know a family that had the misfortune of losing one of their daughters to drowning…it only took a couple of minutes and that’s all it took for an eternity of the what ifs and could of’s. It’s so important to teach our children to swim, even when their babies….it can and will save their lives. Sending love to Laura and Aaron and family. 😘❤️🙏🏼🌺🐾🐾🐾

Loving everything about the pond area! So tranquil… and the wildlife (kitties) love it, too!

Birkenstocks in the water? Brave lady! (Not being critical! I'm genuinely curious, as I've never gotten mine wet other than rain.) Can't wait to see the pathway and patio. I'm so glad you decided to embrace berms and boulders, it all looks amazing.

I love those chairs! They are perfect for around the pond. You guts really enjoy the pond. It will even get used mire as UT cools down. Now you need something with fire around the pond!

The pond is looking fantastic! Love it💖

Omg, this would’ve been such a peaceful and fun planting project! I love the water sounds and dappled low light! I’m ready for fall and can’t wait to see some color changes❤️

the pond is absolutely stunning, and the plumbago is going to be a great groundcover there! love hearing the sound of the waterfall when you're working around the pond.

So fun seeing the pond maintenance! I know for modesty of the video you did it, but the wet jeans had my skin crawling haha. I saw someone comment on your instagram that that was exactly what they expected a Laura swimsuit to look like and it cracked me up!

It's beautiful, Laura. Still think you should look into the 'Waterlily' Autumn Crocus (Colchicum).

Good afternoon from Papua New Guinea. I enjoyed watching your contents.

Consider adding Plumbago to some of the rock crevices right at the pond's edge. They are beautiful in rock gardens. Laura, if you haven't already, please invest in some swim shorts. They'll be perfect for pond work and play! I can't imagine trying to get those soaking wet jeans off! I'm very excited about the stonework that's coming up. What a difference it's going to make!

Very pretty and enjoyable to watch. That enormous lily has tripled I think. I thought you musy have bought another one x ❤️🐞🙏😇🇦🇺🕊️

The pond looks fabulous! For most gardens, you get your hand dirty, but for the pond, we see that your hands and entire self get wet as well! 😊

What a nice way to start a hot day

I recognized the voice first. You sound just like your dad, Aaron. I was looking on KZread for teaching on I Kings because I am currently studying that part of the Bible. I started listening to that familiar voice and remembered that you had done several planting projects at your church, but I did not know what church it was, nor did I know your last name. I finally put it all together! I must say that I have learned so much about gardening from you and Laura, and I have also learned much about how to work together in a loving way. Obviously you have come from godly families who taught you well.

I like that there is open spaces around the pond. It looks more natural than having every space filled in with plants.

Amazing! Nice work (Get some plastic berks wont ruin in the water) Cheers to beautiful projects

That pond is so beautiful! What an oasis. You need some waders.
