Blue Mountains...

Oh the blue mountains are BEAUTIFUL! This place is Super STUNNING! I have sooooooo many photos, I'll share some over 2 posts...
Check out some of our pics...

Scenic World was a favourite with our Girls...
We went on the Railway...
and we went on the Skyway...
This was the Railway! It was sooooooo much fun, we went on it a heap of times...
Oh the views! My heart skips a beat at these beautiful views...
Blue Mountains National Park...
Elissa found a swing...
These shoes are made for walking...and we did a lot of that :-)
I Love this pic...
We walked on boardwalks for some of the walk...
Can you spot my GORGEOUS Girls?
We walked up a heap of steep steps...Feel that burn baby, Hahaha!
Oh the Views...
Yes, the Railway is VERY steep...
The old Railway...
One of the trails had many different sculptures along it, it was very interesting...
Some of the boardwalks...
More Sculptures...

Can you spot the Lyre bird?
 I changed the wording to this sign: This person has had a bad experience during his lifetime, and had his heart broken by another person hurting him. This person has continued to grow towards the LIGHT (God), providing us with a unique and powerful testimony.
More Sculptures...
Serena found a Swing...
All I can say is GOD is the Artist of the BEAUTIFUL Blue Mountains....they certainly didn't happen by accident! 
This place is SPECTACULAR, so BEAUTIFUL...If I lived here, I would get an annual pass and visit often, it really is a very breathtaking spot, the mountain views are the best I've seen. A VERY special place!
Photos to be continued...

Walking and Exploring...

We enjoyed a long walk in the sunshine today exploring the Nepean river, Kings bush reserve, and the surrounding area. It was great to have a lovely, long walk with the Girls and Shane. Quite a few people were out and about on this Anzac day, picnicking, walking and just enjoying some family time.

Beautiful Serena...
Beautiful Elissa...
I Love this pic...
Came home after a long walk and enjoyed an icy pole while this spunk went off to work. Go get them Shane!
I hope everyone is enjoying this beautiful sunshine (here in Camden N.S.W the sun is shining beautifully) with their gorgeous loved ones xo

The Travelling Bible in Camden, N.S.W...

The Travelling Bible has made it here at Camden N.S.W. We have been here at Camden for 9 nights and it actually feels as though we've been here for a month already, not in a bad way, it just feels as though we've been extra busy, and we've been able to see God move so much here in many situations already!

We've decided to spend a big chunk of our time here in Camden (Sydney) N.S.W, not exactly sure how long, at this stage we are thinking it will be at least a couple of months! I feel that we have a lot of potential to minister to people here in Sydney, and at the moment the caravan park we are staying at has huge potential for ministering to people....we have already been able to minister to quite a few people here at the caravan park, so we want to press into that and continue to share God and His love with those around us.
We've also had the privilege of running the youth group while we are here at a church in Miller...House of Praise, and Shane has the opportunity to preach at House of Praise, so its all very exciting for us.


We have already seen God work here in Camden, N.S.W, here at the caravan park, and even with people we have met in the community, even at Shane's work, oh and that's another thing...Shane got a job...WHAT! Yep, Shane has a casual job at one of the many snoozes around Sydney, its meant to be casual, however, he is working 4 days this week, WOW! 

We have been hugely blessed here, we can see Gods hand on us, and our hearts are on fire to pursue more of God, and to share Him with others...

Please pray for us to continue to be used here in Sydney, pray we have more boldness, more love, pray we keep pressing in to what God wants for us here, and pray for the people of Sydney, the people of Camden, pray their hearts are softened and ready to receive the LOVE of GOD.
You know, I can see a fire of God starting here and going off...growing into a massive blaze...all that is needed is a few sparks...and then the fire will be roaring, a roaring FIRE of GOD...WOOHOOO!

If you pray, please pray that we will be a blessing to those around us...Thanks in advance xo
Take Care,
Love Dimi xo

Beautiful People in Sydney...


A VERY Beautiful person baked me a VERY beautiful cake for my birthday...
Coming to Sydney we didn't know what to expect even though we have been here before (about 15 years ago was the last time and that was for a christian conference). We love the beach, and natural surroundings and we imagined Sydney to be a concrete jungle, busy, noisy and crazy! Yes, Sydney has beautiful natural surroundings, but it's also busy, noisy and crazy. Sydney is mostly what we expected it to be, and thats fine, it has its good and not so good points. Sydney is just different to what we have enjoyed over the last few months but that's okay, we are happy to check out different areas and we like to make the most of each area. 
However, what we didn't expect was to meet some of the most beautiful, generous, and kind hearted people we have met on our journey so far here in Sydney.
Yes, we have met heaps of people and many have been generous people, people that support us by providing us with resources to share with others, people who have made adjustments to our vehicle free of charge, people who we've shared meals with and our children have enjoyed each others company, people who have offered their home to us when our vehicle broke down, people who have kept in contact with us since we first met them on day 1 of our journey, people who have caught up with us, just to have a chat :-)  All these people have blessed us with their kindness, love, and their generosity, they have been a real blessing to us :-)

Once again we find ourselves extremely blessed by such loving, kind hearted, and generous people here in Sydney. These people have gone above and beyond for us. They have been a complete blessing to us, and a breath of fresh air really. These people reflect the heart of God, and we are thankful to have met this beautiful family and to be a part of there lives whether it is for a short time, or a long time xo

You see, even though part of this journey is about experiencing our beautiful Australia for all it's worth, it is more about beautiful people, beautiful people that make Australia a beautiful place to live in. Yep, there are people who aren't so beautiful, however, there are many more that are, and we are so grateful that we get to share our time with them, have a chat with them, share our life and our journey with such beautiful people.

My heart is full...I Thank God for bringing such BEAUTIFUL people to us xoxoxox

Beautiful, CRAZY Bondi...

Yep, Bondi is CRAZY... oh and Beautiful, well that's what I think anyway! The traffic, oh the crazy, not even peek hour traffic, I felt my anxiety levels rise..I had to pump the music and worship God to get me relaxed again. It took us 2 hours from Camden to get to Bondi...CRAZY! However, once we seen the water and felt that sand...OH the BLISS, the total BLISS :-)
Finally...Sandy toes and cool water...

Soak it all in Girls...Check out the BEAUTIFUL clear water...
Cute models...
Yes Bondi is busy, the parking fees are crazy if you ask me, however, the water is superb, the sand is beautiful and NOTHING beats a refreshing and relaxing day at the beach, nothing clears the junk in my head like being in the ocean, the beach is my happy place...well spending time with God in prayer and worship makes the top of the list, that goes without saying...but spending time with God at the beach, PURE BLISS...Love it...

The Beach Pool, mainly for little ones...
Mosiac art on the walls...
Exploring with Daddy...
Oh what a SPUNK...
I LOVE this guy. He is the LOVE of my life and I thank God for such an awesome husband.
Can you spot Elissa?
The Bondi Pavilion...
Pure Cuteness...
Well Bondi surprised me, yes it was crazy busy, and we didn't like the hectic drive there or back home, however, if we have another warm day while we are here, we may chose to visit and best of all swim again :-)
I hope everyone is well, and having a good week xo
Take Care,
Dimi xo

Thank You God...

How GREAT is your FAITHFULNESS!
All I can say is THANK YOU GOD...well actually, I can say a whole lot more, Hahaha...
I love waking up with Gods beautiful words in my head, I love it. God reminds me and my beautiful family of Romans 8 every now and then, because every now and then my mind gets busy, it gets clouded with the what ifs of life, it gets clouded with the fear that comes from a lack of faith...but nope...God won't allow me to ponder on those things for too long, why?? because GOD is Faithful and He reminds me of that when I need to be reminded! God IS FAITHFUL and me and my family are a testament to that, our journey is a testament to that. Never forget that God is FAITHFUL, Praise HIM, for He is FAITHFUL all the time xo

"GOD is GOOD all the time, All the time, GOD is GOOD".
