(Happy) New Year..
Yes well.. it’s been a crazy week.
New Year’s Eve we had an awful fire, allegedly lit by two 11 and 12 yo boys. The wind was very strong before we got a huge storm. The fire burned for around 4 hours, and we were very thankful that 3 water bombers including Elvis, came up from Melbourne to help dowse the flames. Here’s a pic of Elvis between refueling with water. The fire was less than 1 km away, and if the wind turned the way it was supposed to, and we didn’t have any rain with the change, we could have been in danger. We decided to rehearse our ‘fire plan’ and get the heck out. Yes we received an sms and phone message telling us that the fire was in our area, and to enact our fire plans, so even though this has received bad press regionally, I think the system looks like it could work.

Anyway, I digress.
A very good friend of mine lost her dear husband over the New Year period. Deepest sympathies to her and their 4 children (aged 4-15). Such a tragedy. I've been very distracted, thinking and praying for them. It's so hard to feel so useless when you know people are hurting and you can't fix it. Reminds us all that life is too short. RIP David.
I've also recently attended a family friend's wedding during the New Year. The bride was gorgeous, and the ceremony was lovely.
Anyway.. I thought I’d post some new stuff that I have been doing over the last 4 weeks, including projects from my ‘kit by mail’ tutorials.

Happy New Year! Thanks for stopping by and visiting my blog.
Last chance to subscribe to Summer “Kit by Mail”!!
Firstly I have to share with you the last few days.
Nicholas (DS4) had to have his tonsils and adenoids removed. Well, just after surgery, the Australian Open ‘cup’ and Nicole Bradtke (nee Pratt) and Todd Woodbridge were visiting the kids ward. They stopped by to say hello. Nic had no idea, but thought the cup was pretty cool! It made Nanna’s day (she’d just dropped in for an hour or two), she loves tennis!! Nicholas is home and recovering well. Poor little possum!
