Catchup

Everything is going well here in Lightning Ridge, except for our car that is but at least it is running at the moment!

We have had the annual Goat Races here back on the Easter weekend in April and Cor's dad Kev came up for a week and they did some mining together. The goat races were fun but we all enjoyed the little carnival they had which we took Jack and Emma to one night.

We have got our opal website Opal Heaven up and running and also an etsy store under the same name. I also recently did a photoshoot with my friend Teena and Emma modelling clothes for my etsy store Ashas Vintage. That was quite fun and now Zoe and I are running a 17 aprons in 17 days promotion.

In Memory of Diesel

I have a lot to catch you all up on due to my lack of blogging lately however, firstly I wanted to mention Diesel.
Diesel was a gorgeous little pup who was abandoned at a service station at Wee Waa where I had stopped to get, you guessed it - Diesel. So I couldn't leave the poor little thing there and brought him home thinking we could decide what to do with him later.
The poor little guy was skinny and had fleas all over him! He fit straight in with our other dog Bella and they play fighted incessantly. As soon as dad found out I had picked up a stray he asked if he could have it so we decided to give Diesel to him as a companion. It was a bit difficult at the end to think we'd be giving him away.
Anyway, on the handover weekend in Inverell, tragedy struck when Diesel was accidentally killed.
So this is for you Diesel, you captured our hearts in only ten days!
