We made the annual trip to the Billabong Pro in Jeffrey's Bay. Waves were good but not great. Ouma and Oupa joined us for a great day on the beach.
We have a new addition to the family, Lola. She is between 3 to 4 months. Shirley got her from the Animal Welfare Society. She is a mix of who knows, best bet is Alsatian, Collie, possible Boxer...... Kayra was in St Francis with oupa and ouma for a few days and when she got home and saw the puppy it was love at first sight. We had to beg for a hello hug and kiss!
Unfortunately we tragically lost a beloved member of the family, Tia, on the 25th. Somehow Amy and Lola ended on one side of a picket fence in our back yard, and Tia on the other. She loved her sisters so much that she tried to get over the fence and ended up hanging herself in the process. Tim got home from work and found her, still warm, but very dead. Hopefully she didn't suffer too much.
We felt the kids needed to say goodbye to Tia, so early Saturday morning Tim dug a grave and made a cross and we all buried he in the back yard. It was terribly emotional, but al least the kids now understand that Tia is dead.
We all miss her terribly, Rest In Peace Tia.
