The LORD will guide you always; he will satisfy your needs in a sun-scorched land and will strengthen your frame. You will be like a well-watered garden, like a spring whose waters never fail. ~Isaiah 58:11

Taking on the Jellys
The temperature has been in the hight 90's F lately, so it has been pretty hot lately especially since we don't have air conditioning in our house, so it can get pretty hot around our house. So last Saturday our family (except for Charity) packed up and headed down to the Mt. Eliza beach. Because of a recent strong onshore wind there has been heaps of jellyfish in the bay lately. It was the first time our family had encountered them. Benji and I were just harmlessly swimming along when Benji squealed "EEEIKK". Dead ahead was this red jellyfish. Dad was visiting Robbie, so we decided we should catch one and show dad when we came along. So we got out the swimming caps to catch the Jelly's. We got the one after lots of trying, then Benji spotted another one! So we caught it too and added it to our collection. We went on like this spotting more and more till we had nearly a dozen. It was so cool to watch them swim or whatever they do. They kept getting their tentacles tangled with each other. After dad arrived and we showed him our wonderful collection. Benji was afraid that we were being cruel and unusual to the poor little guys getting their tentacles all tangled with each other, so we let all but 4 go. There It was pretty sweet, Tim-Tam, Mum, and me even got stung by one. It was really weird. More of an itch then a sting. It was very strange, but didn't last long. I love going to the beach, despite the deadly animals. Ok, so there really aren't any deadly animals in the water in Victoria....at least no that I have heard of. You never know though. :) Well, there are a few pictures ^ of our adventures. Enjoy!

Happy Valentines day
My daddy is my valentine. He got us three girls and my mum roses. I know we are weird, but as soon as we got them, we girls decided to dress up just for pictures. So, the only place I went for valentines day was my living room, but hey, we got some good pictures, and it was fun. So what did y'all do for valentines day?

CONGRATULATIONS!!!
To Raymond and Carolyn Hughes on the birth of their firstborn son, Thomas James Wilson Hughes. He was born on Sunday February the 4th, he weighed 7 lbs and 12 oz ( I think. I am not positive about those, but pretty sure). He is a beautiful baby! We went and saw him in the hospital today. Here are some pictures that I promised I would put up:
Me with baby Thomas
Thomas and his mummy
The whole family
Such tiny hands (his and mind)
Daddy with his tiny baby
We are all pretty excited about a new baby in our church. It is the first birth since we have been in the church. Ray and Caza are going to be such amazing parents. I am so happy!

10 things that make me joyful
Thanks to Charity's blog. It inspires me. I was reading through old posts on her blog and found a post from October 2005, and it was a bit like this.
1. When the Aussie people call me beautiful
2. Eating good ice cream (yes they have it here)
3.Sleepovers
4. Sundays
5.Benji asking me to play xbox with him
6. Hanging out with my sisters
7. Paper round
8.Singing
9.Going over to the Glovers
10. Going to the beach
I am not saying that these are the only things that make me joyful, just a few of the many things.
