Weekend Away

We went away on the weekend to a cute little place called Oberon, NSW.  It was absolutely beautiful. 148 acres of bush, streams, deers, ducks, chickens, peace, quiet, kangaroos, wild pigs and a VERY long driveway!  The house itself had 6 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms, 3 fireplaces, 3 sitting areas, a HUGE kitchen, two dining tables, central heating, games room, you name it! I wanted to bring the house home with me, but unfortunately it wouldn't fit on our block of land. But since we keep adding to our tribe, i think we need a house that big! 

Looking at the stars when you're in the country is just amazing! It just shows you how amazing, powerful and BIG our God is and how wonderful His creation is! We stood outside in the freezing cold for ages just starring at the night sky and marvelling at the shooting stars that we just would not have seen had we been back in the city with all the street lights, house lights, car lights, etc.  We even found ourselves counting backwards like 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 ... and 'clicked' our fingers like we were trying to strike up a deal with God that when we 'clicked', he would send a shooting star for us! it didn't work! "Thou shalt not put the Lord your God to the test"! was worth a try!

One thing i discovered while we were away, wanting to capture the memories with our photos, i have a LONG way to go with my photography skills! More courses coming up i feel!
