A few shots from our recent trip to Perth to check out the new school.
The fountain commemorates Tom Edwards who died in a union riot in 1919.The riot became known as "Bloody Sunday", part of the potentially explosive ‘Battle of the Barricades’ riot on Fremantle Wharf on 4 May 1919. During the riot Edwards was mortally wounded by a police baton and died 3 days later giving the union its first martyr.
Last Sabbath, Liana was invested for Helping Hands Adventurers class. This brings to a conclusion hers and our families’ involvement in Adventurers - the end of an era. Thanks Lance (and Salin) for your unwavering support and commitment to our family.
After 5 joyful years, our move to Perth has precipitated us to farewell our beautiful horse Pippa. We’ve had so many fun times with her as part of the family. She has built our kids’ confidence around big animals and riding. Zemiel struggled with the thought of letting her go and didn’t want any final photos.
So Sharlene recently received a request for her to take a position in a school at Perth.
This week, we’ve begun expanding our backyard area. Our neighbour has given us a pile of dirt (in pay back for running a tractor through our fence.) So our old rosewood log fence is being moved and reconstructed several meters further out.
Two weeks ago, one of the young ladies of our church was baptised at harbour beach. Our family attended and celebrated with other friends. We usually ask Zem if he wants to be baptised as well when we attend a baptism. (He has a standing agreement that he can be baptised straight away). But he has always refused point blank. On this occasion he paused and considered. Then he actually agreed.
Recently, we have taken to making our own sour dough bread. We regularly feed our starter and manage somehow to get a reasonable loaf most times we try.
Last Monday night (7th June) Zemiel’s sheep Rocket Pocket gave birth to two healthy lambs - one girl and one boy. The girl is curly fleeced like her mother and the boy is has straight hair like the father (Rambo). The girl also has a white head like Rocket, while the boy has a black head.
