We went to our state homeschool conference.  I was only able to attend one lecture.  The presenter spoke about Art and how Christians should not abandon art just because there are artists that are producing art that is not quite Godly (to put it mildly).  I enjoyed the lecture and learned a few things.   I love looking at all the curriculum.  I was able to buy Jeannie Fulbright's Zoology book which fits perfectly with all the bird watching/bird feeding we are doing lately. I picked up a few other things, mostly Dover coloring books. 

I told my sons (7,5) that all of the families that were at the conventions were homeschoolers and quite a few of them were Christians.  They were very surprised to see so many of us!  That is one of my favorite things about Homeschool Conferences is just enjoying the moment...we are all Homeschooling!

I've never been to our state conference yet but I hope to go sometime soon. I would love getting to look through all the different curriculums and listen to encouraging workshops.

Enjoy your summer!

We went to our annual curriculum fair last Friday (in Portland, OR) and it was so fun to chat with other homeschool moms, and one short conversation was about how fun it was to be in a huge place with like-minded people. We're all doing the same thing, yet we all do it differently. Isn't it great? I also wondered if there were any other homeschool bloggers around - you never know!
