I don't really have time to blog

For the skimmers...
  • I am still getting up at 6am to go work out.
  • I am helping with VBS (5:30-8:30pm) by leading grade-school crafts.
  • I am getting packed and ready for next week...
  • I am flying out on Saturday to go to ALASKA!
For the ones who love details...

I had a miserable headache that all but kept me in bed this weekend, but I am happy to report that I am doing much better and thankful to feel better because I am in the middle of a crazy week! Vacation Bible School started on Sunday and we are travelin' over the amazing Land Down Under and all along the way we will discover...that on the Boomerang Express it all comes back to Jesus. Clever, huh? It has been a lot of fun making name-a-rangs and didgeridoos in crafts, and we still have outback bags and boomerang picture frames to do with aboriginal dot painting. It's been a lot easier than I thought it would be (I was very intimidated about "leading" crafts-- I am so NOT a crafty person.) and I just hope the kids are enjoying it!!

Thursday is the last night for VBS, and hopefully my parents will be coming into town toward the end of this week-- it would be great to see them before I leave (hint, hint). I've been slowly packing and getting things together for Alaska. This is the website of the railroad we'll take while we're there for a fun, sightseeing day if you're interested :-) We are going to be doing lots of random jobs and community service in Wasilla for most of the week, as well as helping our sister church there prepare for their VBS which will be the following week. Two of the high school girls from the small group Bible study I taught are going, as well as 7 others. I am getting really excited about this trip.

I wonder how a week off from waking up at 6am to go to the gym will affect me... hmm...
