A look around outside the House

Here are a few pictures of what is around the property. We were told there is a pond behind the house in the field, it didn't start to form until the fall. And the ravine on north east side of the property on Snyder road started to fill up with water. Then came our first dusting of snow and really made the place picturesque.
In November my Brother-in-Law took me up for a flight and we went over the house. In this picture you can see most of the property. It goes from the road at the bottom, up the road on the right and a little bigger than the left side and top of the picture. You can see the pond starting to fill in behind the house in the field.
The pond getting larger.
This was taken on Jan 22, to give you a idea of the size, ReBecca walked down to the pond and I took this from the deck beside the house.
Here the ravine is filling up.
Finally, here is what it looks like after our first dusting on December 24, 2011.

Now for a little paint.

ReBecca decidced on bright, cheerfull colors. Her office, the master bedroom, the dressing room and the spare bedroom were a pale yellow and the addition and my office a light blue. After a couple of coats of paint it started to look good.
The addition.
My office, the frog is gone.

Master bedroom.
Spare bedroom.
And finally the dressing room.
