I'm tickled pink!

About 3 months ago, I bought 5 really tiny new fish for the pond, 3 really golden orfe and 2 more albino catfish. They all decided to hide, and I didn't see any of them for over a month. I finally saw 1 golden orfe about a month ago, and just figured the others didn't make it. Last night when I got home from work I went out to the pond to feed the fish, lo and behold, there's 1 of the catfish just swimming around. It had about doubled in size. Now I'm hoping some of the others made it too and are just not ready to make their debut.
I took a few pics of the ponds on the 4th and thought I'd share.
These are Colorado, Queen of Siam and Texas Dawn
These are Pink Grapefruit and Surfrider

Your pond and flowers sure look great.

Welcome back Shae! Your pond looks great! I must be getting better at recognizing lilies because I noticed right off that there is a beautiful Queen of Siam, actually 2, in bloom! Just 'cause I have one too for the past 3 yrs. AND I love blue surfrider.
Can you say impatiens?!?!?

Esther, the job is going great! I've been there a month now and I really like it. I don't even mind the long drive to work. I'm really hoping it will turn out to be permanent. I've been really busy this past month with the new job, my mom's real sick again and my niece was in a bad car wreck last week and had to have surgery. I haven't posted in a long time, but I've missed everyone and have a lot of catching up to do. I've lost 3 of my biggest shubs so far this year, but other than that I'm really pleased with how the ponds are coming along.

It's nice to see you back here. Good to hear the job is going well. Sorry about your niece and mom and hope they heal soon. Your pond is very beautiful. Love your pink lily. Nice to hear your fish are out of hiding and hope the rest are still there and will come out soon too.

Well now I know that both of the albino catfish made it. I finally saw both swimming around yesterday. 2 more to go!
