Amazing Achievements

Today was a very special day.  Every year there is a wonderful Country show on for 3 days called the Brookfield Show.  It was at this show last year that I won a first for my Pyrography of a Kookaburra.  This year I managed to persuade Brian to enter one of his carvings in for judging and also young Sarah (12) entered two of her Pyrography that she had done, one being a beautiful angel for her mommy.  When we arrived at the show today, we discoverd that Brian had won a first for his Bird of Prey and there was a $50 winning prize as well as ribbons and certificates.  Sarah went one better and she received a first for her Angel and a second for one of the computer characters she did for Matthew's birthday, both in Pyrography.  She received ribbons, certificates and $20 for first prize and $10 for second prize.  I am so proud of both of them.  Keep up the good work and have another go next year. Sarah's photo of the Angel was a bit difficult to photograph as it was in a glass case, but this gives you an idea of how well she has done.
