Checking in…

June 22, 2010 By: Melissa

It’s been a little while since I just sat down and asked how you are doing…Time just seems to fly right by these days, so I wanted to take a few minutes this morning to check in on you.
Summer’s here in South Florida; the kids are out of school, it is ridiculously hot and humid, and just about every day we have a tropical thunderstorm blow through.  
Yep, each and every day looks just about the same on the outside…the real trick is what we do with it on the inside, so let me give you a little peek at what’s been going on inside Mel’s World.
Last week hubby & I took a little time to go on a 2 night get away to celebrate our 17th wedding anniversary.  It was so nice to be able to step out of our everyday ordinary life for that time to just completely relax, chill out, and pretty much do nothing.
Yep…that’s what we did…nothing, but relax, watch movies, and read!  
We’ve both been on hyper speed mode with church and work these days that for us what we really needed was that time away to just relax.
Do you ever do that?
We ended up not going very far from our home, so it was like a stay-cation of sorts, but it gave us a chance to recharge ourselves so that we can gear up for this coming week.
Oh yeah…VBS is here next week…and I still have so much to do to get ready for it, but the cool thing is that as crazy as VBS week is, that I will be surrounded by some of the best and amazing volunteers ever, and that makes the week even more enjoyable for me.
How many of you do VBS at your church?
Oh, one more thing before I have to go, if your church does VBS and you aren’t the one running it, take some time to send a card, write a note, or even go up and thank your VBS Director and team…they are working hard to make sure your kids have a fantastic faith filled week!
If you are one of the lucky ones, like me, that are running the VBS at your church, then let me know that too…I’d LOVE to pray for you and your team (even if you already had your VBS).
Well…there you have it…there’s been lots going on in Mel’s World, and that is only two little pieces of it.  I can’t wait to catch up with you…don’t forget to check in!
Have a fan-tab-u-lous day!
