We are another one of those kooky homeschooling, foster, birth and adoptive families who believe in Jesus and have more than 2.5 children. This blog is a mix of many things. Please keep in mind that this blog is written for my children. When I've gone the way of the dodo bird they will have this to read. Hopefully it serves as our family scrapbook...because I'm not buying any more stinking wavy scissors and stickers! Just print this blog on photo paper and stick it in a photo album kids. Momma loves you!

OUR 40 FOOT ICE CREAM SUNDAE....

I founded a homeschool group a few years ago and found out pretty quickly that if Ice Cream is involved, people show up to events. Today was our 3rd Annual Ice Cream Social and we decided to make a 40 foot ice cream sundae/Banana Split.

Yep! Forty Foot Ice Cream Sundae!

Ha haaaa....

My goodness! We had an absolute ball. Kids were bouncing in the bounce house, the men were playing Hillbilly Horseshoes, the moms talked and relaxed. We just had a fun, relaxing party at the park.

It is on days like this that I realize what a blessing my group is to me. God has placed so many beautiful, loving women in my life to encourage and mentor me. I am so happy to know them and call them my sisters. We don't all believe alike, think alike or raise our kids alike but we all care for one another. That is something very hard to find in this day and age. If you find it once you are blessed. I've found it over and over in my homeschooling sisters.
