Emma's 30th

On Sunday 15th February 2009, at 17 Stuart Road, Lilydale, we celebrated Em's 30th birthday with a teaparty! We dressed up with hats and ties - what fun!

On the same day, four of our first litter of rabbits were sold, and the fifth went the next day! So that was a bit sad, but we know that they have all gone to good homes. We are left with Lily and Butch, the 'parents', and Snowbell, who was the lightest coloured baby and the runt of the litter.

The party was great fun, and at the end of the afternoon we did a quiz about Em!

The first litter from Lily and Butch are now five weeks old. They are very active, running to and fro, jumping and eating like crazy! They are a delight! There are five females and one male in the litter, as far as we can tell. In about three weeks time we will begin selling them.

Last weekend, our group went away for the weekend to a woolshed in Torquay. We like doing this about twice a year, to spend quality time with each other and God. This time we felt like people in the group knew each other better and there was a real feeling of trust and friendship developing.

We are enjoying spending time with Elisha Care and serving them by looking after the houses (two boys houses, one girls house and one family house). Emma does all the administration work for the houses, and we both care for the community of people living in them by hanging out with them and having meals with them, prayer groups in each house and general sharing of our lives with each other. We are honoured to be part of their lives.
