Goodbye Ocean Grove/Barwon Heads...

It's been GREAT to be here. We revisited an AWESOME Church, The Wave Church in Ocean Grove, Shane caught up with someone we met along our travels, and we have had a heap of FUN and relaxation time. It has been GREAT to relax on the beach, swimming in the water, playing in and on the sand and spending many hours walking along the beach and river, however it is time to say goodbye again. I'm sure we will return in the future but for now we must move on. 
Check out some of our pics from our stay here...

The icing on the cake was that Shane and I both felt to minister to 2 ladies here at the caravan park, and so we did. We were able to minister to them and offer them some resources that they were happy to accept, YAY :-) Thank You God :-)

So, Goodbye Ocean Grove and Barwon Heads, it has been WONDERFUL!

Our Journey continues...we had a few special surprises for our wonderful girls today...I'll post about them over the next couple of days!
Take Care and I hope you have an extra WONDERFUL day xoxox

Love...

I love these well known versus in 1st Corinthians 13:4, 5, 6, 7...

Love is patient and kind. Love is not jealous or boastful or proud or rude. It does not demand its own way. It is not irritable, and it keeps no record of being wronged. It does not rejoice about injustice but rejoices whenever the truth wins out. Love never gives up, never loses faith, is always hopeful, and endures through every circumstance.

In the bible, Paul the apostle spoke to the Corinthians Church about this biblical LOVE. I believe this is the LOVE we are to strive for everyday. It is a selfless LOVE and I believe this selfless LOVE, that God is the author of, should be our priority in life in everything we do. We live in a world that always tells us to put ourselves first, that I'm number one...Imagine if we lived in a world were we always put others first...Selfless LOVE should be our priority xo

If we all had 5 minutes to live and 1 phone call we could make, I believe most of us would call our loved ones and say to them....I LOVE YOU!
Love is the most important thing. Love will never die, it will always exist. LOVE is eternal. If it wasn't for God's LOVE for us, we wouldn't be here now.

Selfless LOVE should be our priority xoxox

Love,

Photo Failure, Hahaha...

I wanted to get some lovely family photos of us on the beach in clothes, not just in swim gear. So even though I was still feeling yucky, after church on Sunday (Church was absolutely AWESOME by the way. We LOVE The Wave church in Ocean Grove) we decided to go home (our caravan is our home on wheels) get my camera, and go down to the beach for some quick pics...Yea right!!

Once we got to the beach we realised we picked the wrong day to take photos at the beach. There were hundreds of people at the beach for the surf comp. Oh well, we decided we could still take some pics, we just needed to pick a quieter part of the beach...easily fixed!
We then quickly worked out my camera had no battery, oh no! Luckily we bought along Elissa's camera as a back up. We then realised Elissa's camera had no battery too. Oh well, we pulled out the trusty camera phone. Shane then decided he wanted to take a few lovely pics of the girls with me.
These were the first few pics...

And then this happened...Hahaha...It was sooooooo Funny. We couldn't stop laughing. It was quite hilarious and it actually made our day, Hahaha!

These are a little better...

Hope you had a laugh, we certainly did :-)
Take Care and Goodnight,
Dimi 

The Last Sunset...

NEVER will we ever have that exact sunset again. Once that date has past it will never be again, NEVER. You will never be 20 again, or 30, or 40, 50, 60, 70, or 80, or 90 ever again. You will NEVER have this day, this very night, this sunset ever again.....(Nope, I'm not trying to sadden you). 
SO.......
Kiss your children, no matter how young or old they are. Hug your beautiful, precious kiddies and tell them you love them. Let them stay up a little longer tonight and eat some ice cream with them. Sing/read/hug them off to sleep.
Hug your hubby/wife and whisper sweet nothings into your lovers ear. Tell them you love them for who they are. Make a special dinner for them. Have a fun date night with them and have a good laugh together.
Take a day off work, let your child take a day off school and have a fun family day. Have a beach day, go out for a day trip, have pancakes for dinner, bake a cake together, stay up late together and have a family games night.
Don't forget to tell your LOVED ones that you Love them. Look into your loved ones eyes and tell them how special they are to you. Tell them and show them how much you LOVE them and how much they mean to you.
Remember, we will never have today again and tomorrow isn't a promise!

Also...remember whether you know it or not, whether you believe it or not, GOD LOVES YOU. He loves you each and everyday. He created you out of LOVE, so that you would know LOVE, and share HIS most perfect LOVE with others  xoxox 
Take Care!
Love From,
Dimi xoxox
