Happy 19th my son!Message From Mum:So many things to say as you turn 19 today! First of all, you have made me the absolute best version of myself.

I hate disappointing you and always try my best to take your advice because I know it comes from a good place because you love...

This or That: Text or Calls

I am not so good at texting, which I should be growing up in a time where texting was wayyyy cheaper then calling back in the day of Nokia 3310's and $30 prepaid Optus plans.But once 2004 hit with free Optus to Optus calls after 7am, I would be talking to my besties all night!If I'm inviting people to something, sharing a good deal or a funny meme - its through text.But if I got goss?

Psalm 40:1-3 NLTI waited patiently for the Lord to help me, and he turned to me and heard me cry. He lifted me out of the pit of despair, out of the mud and the mire. He set my feet on solid ground and steadied me as I walked along. He has given me a new song to sing, a hymn of praise to our God. Many will see what he has done and be amazed. They will put their trust in the Lor...

Today was just too beautiful of a day to be sitting indoors so we loaded the car up with snacks and drinks and went on a little adventure to the Werribee Gorge.Realizing pretty quickly that everyone in and around Bacchus Marsh had the same genius idea, we soon turned around to head to our old hidey hole - the Bacchus Marsh Weir.
