I love these faces!!!!

At the beginning of this month our homeschool group got together for our end of the year potluck.  It was a wonderful day.  The weather was beautiful and so was the company.  I have been putting off this blog, partly because we have been so busy.  But mostly because I know this was one of the last times we will all be together like this.  One of my dearest friends is moving and I think I just haven't wanted to blog this day because that will make it seem more real somehow.  I love this lady like a sister and I adore her kids.  She truly is a bright light in our world and we will miss her and her family greatly. 

This kids had a wonderful time.  Jacob brought his fishing pole and Ms. Rachel and Ms. Brandi took them into the creek to look for crawdads.  They caught a few along with some baby fish.  Anthony and Shayne brought guitars and there was an impromptu game of football.  The moms got to spend a little time talking and I even got rid of some of my old curriculum.  Even though a few of our group were not able to make it the day felt right somehow.   We all lingered a little longer than we intended not wanting the day to end. 

I got the idea for this blog not long before we left and a few of our friends had already gone home.  So please don't think that you aren't loved because your kids faces are not in this blog....I will be doing it again soon I am sure.  And next time I have to add the momma faces as well :)

I didn't get a good picture of Anthony or Jacob.  But I got a few regular pictures from our day....
