So the pack just returned from what they have deemed as the "COOLEST PARTY EVER!!!!!!". (capitals and exclamations intended...lol). Another home school family in our neighborhood decided to through a multiage party for their 2 youngest kids, a 8 year old boy and 13 year old girl. These two are my girls closest everyday friends. To bring everyone together they decided on a "Mess Party." Let me tell you it was a hit. Food fight, eat without you hands meal, tye dye balloon war, all topped out with a mud and peanut oil slip'n slide.
Let me say, that the creativity of this family has been part of my inspiration to home school. They are so creative, and down to earth. They were the first family I ever got to see do the home school thing on a day to day basis. From them I learned the "real" of home school. It's not utopia. Your house is a mess, and you have to be committed to your purpose when the world looks sideways at you. They are moving away soon, and I can tell you they will be sorely missed.
