I have never won a blog contest before until NOW.  Yeah I won a ticket to the virtual homeschool conference that has a goody bag worth 80.00 and cost 29.95.  Heidi picked 5 names and I was one of them!   It is going to have many live conference speakers and more!  I'm so excited, I can't wait to show up in my PJS and have my frappincino while I attend on my computer.  Well I may be pushing it there but I can dream.   This is the ad for the conference!

In our quest to bring you the absolute best home school resource online, we have listened to your requests and are providing you with a fun filled online adventure! On July 31st through August 3rd, we will be hosting Heart of the Matter Online's first annual Virtual Home school Conference! We will be providing the attendees with motivational speakers, video tutorials, free products, question and answer sessions, and a vendor hall - all ONLINE! Just log on and either listen live during that time or log in at your convenience and listen to the audios.

We are trying our best to make it the most user and speaker-friendly conference possible. I know that God blessed us by helping us find this amazing conference software. The speaker will just log in at her/his scheduled time, with a plugged in microphone, speak about their topic(approximately 30-40 minutes), and then hold a Q/A session with the listeners (approximately 20-30 minutes). All the while the attendees will get to chat amongst themselves in true Instant Message format.

We really want the conference to be less like a “seminar” and more like a bunch of close friends in a chat room. We want everyone to feel comfortable. Some sessions will also be pre-recorded. Just wait till you see what some of your favorite home school personalities have done to educate and entertain you! At the end you will join in to chat with them, ask questions, and they will answer.

BY THE WAY!  HAPPY BIRTHDAY MOM!  I HOPE YOU HAVE A GREAT ONE.
