Tuesday August 17



Up at 5, devotions, ran 2, coffee at the folks. Phillip went to an interview in the am. Good to give hugs to the little ones and be off to another work day. We ordered 2 pizzas to share for lunch. Lots of planning for classes tomorrow. Who teaches whom, Where we meet, Who goes to be a aide in classes taught by other instructors, What new students are coming into the program, At 4 I headed home to get ready for the 6:30 Home school family year kick off picnic at our home. I brought the wooden table into the sunroom to put food on. Denny made a fire to roast hot dogs. The 2 drink coolers I put in the deep freeze last night had great cold water and fruit drink, BUT ...the actual spigots froze solid. THEREFORE you couldn't use them. Sue helped by shooting a hot air from a hair dryer on them ... to no avail. Some times (often) my ideas to make things easy back fire. Oh well , we served drinks with ladles and pitchers. About 65 people came. The weather was great, not too hot or buggy. Kids loved the merry go round (so much that some got dizzy and sick), the trampoline, the swings, and the dress up clothes. I put the clothes in 2 trunks in the clean bunk house. Denny and the guys sat around the fire pit while Susan and I met with the moms in the coop. Karen J and Carol R thought this sould be an annual first of the year event. Sounds great to me. Most of the stuff was put away by 10 and to bed.
