We are off!

It is finally here! Every year I look forward to the first weekend in June. It is when the annual state homeschool convention takes place.

Now some who go pack up the entire family and go. There is all kinds of cool things to do for all ages, but we choose not to do that. This year there are 7 of us going. 3 couples plus 1 (we love her for boldly going with us) We go to classes, get encouraged, get ideas, shop at the vendors, shop at the biggest used sale ever, and best of all we just hang out. Just all of us adults, no kids. We can go and hang out at a restaurant for HOURS if we want. We don't have to go to bed if we don't want, we can watch HGTV without whining and complaining (the girls share a room and the guys share a room) I love and cherish this time.

It is great. Although by the time I get home having my head full of new ideas and having oodles of encouragement, I am so excited to see my kids.
