What a week!

This has been a busy, but blessed, week. Wednesday our church kicked off our BLAST Zone Kids' Clubs for the year. (BLAST stands for Bible Learning And Sharing Together). I'm a leader in the 5th and 6th grade class, so I help with games, present the lessons, and work one-on-one with the kids, trying to show them how to have a deep, meaningful relationship with the Lord. It takes a great deal of work and preparation, but oh, man! It is so worth it!

Thursday, my husband's grandparents stopped by our house for the night. We got to spend some precious time with them. They were on the last leg of their 3,000 mile, month-long journey through several states. We were so blessed to have them spend the night with us. We talked and laughed and talked and laughed. It's so great having a loving family like mine!


Then today we learned that one of our best friends has received a long-awaited promotion at work. What an answer to prayer! So tonight we're celebrating with an impromptu pizza party and fellowship. I'm so looking forward to it!

Of course, we have the long holiday weekend to look forward to as well. Hope y'all have a great Labor Day!
