Whiptails Whippets

28.10.2008 A very sad day today

We had to say goodbye to our dear Elli.
Elli was truly special and she will always have a place in our hearts.

                         Those we love don't go away,
                         They walk beside us every day,
                         Unseen, unheard, but always near,
                         Still loved, still missed and very dear

15.8.2008 August is a good month for picking berries!

Even though August means that the summer is ending and the vacations are over, there is still some bright sides about this month. The berries in the garden are ready to be picked up!
The dogs are really enjoying them; every time they go outside we know exactly where we will find them.
