My Grandson Nickie loves to hold and play with all the bunnies.
It's so darn cute! Here he is pictured watching our latest tiny little bunny buzzing around. I think Nick is trying to figure
out how he can move that fast to! Nickie is getting around quickly, lets hope he doesn't figure out how the bunny does it.

Happy New Year!
We celebrated New Years Eve with my brother at the hospital this past January. He had a
lot of fun! He held the noise makers in his hand and mouth for over and hour, by himself! We are so glad to have another year
with him! Below are a couple pictures we took. We wanted to share with our friends and family. And again, Happy New year!
* Update! As of March 28, 2008 my
brother Fuzz has had a big setback! He went into seizures at around 8 AM and has continued seizing. They have been unable
to control the seizures.He had a big team of doctors in and out all day. All of his family has been there, around
the clock! He is still not doing well with many doses of anti-seizure medications. Please, if I may once again ask all my
friends, and folks just stopping in to take a peek around the site, once again pray for Fuzz! We have to keep on knocking
on God's door! Eventually he has to answer! Thank You too all of you who have been such a huge support. With friends on the
phone, coming to the hospital and especially the folks I have never met that just drop me an email with words of encouragement.
It has meant the world to me, and I always let Fuzz know there are so many people who care. Thank You all!
With Love, Cheri and Family.
Update! As of April 7, Fuzz has continued to have serious set backs. Last
night at about 10:30 PM he had yet another seizure and his O2 saturation is down to 68%.For those of you who don't know what
that means, it should be at least 98-100% ! They can not keep him stable. He has now been moved to Telemetry ICU. Please
continue to pray for Fuzz!
*Latest update as of May 5th. We celebrated Fuzz's Birthday with
him, he has his eyes open once again, sitting up on the side of the bed, with help or in his wheelchair and is doing
great! Thank You all for your continued support and prayers. It has meant a lot to our family and especially my brother Fuzz!
Thank You all. Below are a few photos we took so everyone can see how great he's doing. WTG Fuzz!

As most of you know, and some of you don't, my youngest
brother (age 24) was in a very serious car accident on June 6, 2006. He is currently still in the hospital and has had
a very difficult year. He has had many challenges and has many more ahead! I spend as much time as possible with my brother
at the hospital, and pray everyday he gets well.
At this time, he is aware of his surroundings. He tries to communicate as
best as possible with a trach. His body challenges him a great deal. So we bring our joys and celebrations to him. I recently went
to see him again, and I wanted to share a picture we took that day with everyone. I really think my brother looks great considering
all he's been through! He looks better then me as a matter of fact, LOL.
Fuzzy is a very talented artist, musician, and he too used to show rabbits
in 4-H. I hope the day comes that he can once again enjoy these things.
Pictured above is me with my Brother, Fuzzy.
If you would like to keep updated on Fuzzy's daily progress, my sister has started a
blog. It's written in his words for the most part.It gives everyone an idea of what my brother has been going through recently.

*We now welcome a wonderful addition to our rabbitry: Bill's Tri. She is a Blue Fawn
Tri Doe. In the past we had offspring out of her and that produced some of the best typeTri color. The unfortunate part
is they turned out to be the wrong color, Tort Tri's. We hope to continue with our Tri project wth a few new additions we
have added this week. Bill's Tri may or may not be here as a brood rabbit, she might just be here to rest her weary bones.
But we have a few additions we will post photos of soon that are here to help us along with our Tri and Sable color projects.
We have recently passed our BEW breeding project along, with the hopes that someone can take
it further. In the meantime we are working hard on our Chocolate, Tri and Otter color projects, with a dab of Sable thrown
in the mix ;-) We have hopes to have Hollands of color and quality. We are well on our way! We like our Torts just the same,
but colors are a fun adventure. So keep watching for new pictures of all the lastest rabbits we have added and the Juniors
we have recently kept. So many of them are maturing nicely.
Don't say a last prayer
Because you could never find
What's this life for
But
they ain't here anymore
Don't have to settle the score
Cause we all live
Under the reign of one king

This is the webpage of The Flop Shop Holland Lops and 4 Paws Candles. My name
is Cheri. I have a small candle business, and I am a third generation rabbit raiser. My breed of choice is Holland Lops.
I work with my son Andy on our Holland Lop project. In the past I have raised other lops, but I love the temperament
and size of the Holland Lop.
I am currently a member of ARBA, and also HLRSC. I have litters from time to time. I breed for show, but always
have pets to share. Just email me for information. Just put rabbits in the subject heading.
We show our rabbits at several local ARBA shows. We currently have proven registered stock. Our rabbits
have Granded, and have legs towards their Championship. We show both in Open and Youth. Our goal is to raise rabbits of quality,
not quantity. We raise healthy rabbits with great temperaments. We raise our rabbits in our home with lots of love and attention.
We feed high quality feed and hay. We give our rabbits daily attention and care.
My candles are made in my home. Mainly a country or food theme. I have many scents to choose from. I
have holiday candles when the time comes. I have been working on perfecting my candles for many years. You are sure to be
pleased!
Enough about me. Now enjoy the site!
In peace, Cheri
Please write rabbits or candles in the subject of your e-mail.
