So glad you have found us. We are a nomadic family of 9 travelling Australia with our six daughters, and our one son and forever missing our precious daughter Serenity who went to be with Jesus at 13 hours old on 12 March 2011. Her short life has changed our lives forever! As we travel we perform at shows, festivals and fundraisers with our dogs, help out on farms and also sell handmade woodcraft, dog collars, leads and capes. We are also doTERRA wellness advocates. Follow our joys and trials here.

Time has gotten away on me

Been a while since I've updated here ... I been playing with a blog/webpage at Webs not sure which I like the best yet.

 A bit of an update on us.  After waiting ages for the van to be ready, it is still not ready, so we have essentially given up on that one.  It was yet another disappointment in a row of disappointments.  Hate putting the family through that again!

We haven't travelled very far lately, what with the van and now Michael has a lot of dental work to be done so we wait yet again.  Hoping that when it's all over we can do some fun things with our little family.

The bus is running well, we are spending some time fixing things up inside.  We moved the "driving" seats around so we now have almost a U shaped "lounge" with a walk way through the middle - will try and get a photo.

Mike has been adding "window corners" to the inside to straighten them up as they are sloping: ever tried to curtain a sloping window?  The windows are looking really good.

We do need to fix our bed ... it is a slat bed, we recently bought a new foam mattress for it .... Mike knelt on the end of it and snapped two slats!!!  We have temporarily fixed it with a sheet of ply, but it does need a more  permanent solution!
