Another Field Day
At co-op, we have a “serious” field day with class competitions and ribbons and awards. A group of friends in our hometown also gets together for a more “casual” field day. Each of the moms prepares a simple game or two – many involving water and relays – and we just have fun together. No awards or ribbons necessary.
This year, we brought potluck food for lunch and our wonderful hostess opened up her pool after the festivities. My children always look forward to this fun day, but the pool made it extra-special!
Little ones enjoyed their own pool while the big kids played games.

Oh, I feel so sorry for your under-socialized children. They just sit home all day and must be terribly bored with no fresh air or exercise. Poor, poor children.
(That was sarcasm. How can people think that of HSers??)
You guys ROCK! How many PS kids get these incredible opportunities? How blessed you are! (And me too!)

We did a “serious” field day with our homeschool group this year which my husband volunteered to plan… However, he has never actually planned anything so that reaponsibilty fell to me. I um…(clearing my throat)…ASKED…him not to ever volunteer to plan anything again!

I’m looking forward to seeing you next weekend too!! I’ll actually be in the vendor area manning the HomeForHisGlory booth and am still uncertain if I will be able to get away to see any of the sessions. Please come find me if I don’t find you first!
