Just listed in my Etsy store

I can't believe how these turned out. I sold a pair a while ago with a cluster of peacock pearls but these glass crystals absolutely sparkle.

Just love the green briolette and the multi faceted glass crystals just sparkle in the light.

Thought I would try another pair with different briolette and silver crystals. I may be bias but they are awesome.

Missy Is Now 3½ Months Old

Can't believe how big she is getting in only a few weeks.She is such a terror too. Has a fetish for socks but then doesn't all puppies and I just don't know why but once the shopping is unpacked she to tries to grab and run off with the bags.

After about a week she fell in the pool. Went slightly under and resurfaced to doggie paddle to the edge. Glad I happened to be in the shower when this happened or I may have had a heart attack.
One day hub and I were doing something in the kitchen area, heard a clatter and things falling, only to turn around and find Missy standing (all fours) on the coffee table.
Look at her though, how can you resist that sweet face.

It's Been A While

It's been a little longer than expected since my last post but having my daughter here for a few weeks has been the best.

Worst part of it is that the 2 weeks she was here just flew by and now she is back in the UK.Whilst she was here we just had to visit Taronga Zoo in Sydney. Over the last few months there have been quite a few births so I was really looking forward to going there.

My favourite just had to be the baby elephant which at first, by specialists, was announced dead inside it's Mum but shocked the community by being alive and well when born.
What a beautiful day we had. All the family was together.
We even got a chance to feed the giraffes.

Say Hello To Missy

Well we decided to get another Spaniel. This time a Welsh Springer Spaniel.

Tango (Rough Collie) is now 14 and the vets are not sure he will see another Winter. Poor Toby (Cocker Spaniel) will have no other doggy to play with.

Missy was born on 3rd February 2010 and the wonderful breeder from Lornelane updated us every week on all the puppies.
Easter Friday we picked up our lovely little Missy and brought her home. She is definitely a little Miss. Poor Tango is having his tail chewed but throw her pink piggy and she is satisfied to give that a chew for a while. We have found that she loves playing ball but the ball is too big for her to actually put it in her mouth.
Oh and on her first day she gave us a heart attach by walking over the pool cover.This is Missy being introduced to the boys.
