Homeschool Valentine's Party

We attended our first homeschool function here in Tennessee. We found a homeschool group that is out of our church. How handy is that? They were having their annual Valentine's party. We were invited to come and happily did so. The 3 younger kids had a very good time. Sweet Pea didn't find anyone to hang out with which made me sad. We will keep trying though. Not all the members were there so we're hoping there is still a good friend waiting out there for her!

First the kids divided up into different age groups to play games.
Here is Boo's group playing Musical Chairs. She won a round & was rewarded with a box of candy!

There they go!


Elvis' group played some games too. All the kid were rewarded with treats. He was very happy about that!


Bugsy's group had Legos & toys to play with. He liked this very much!


Selecting their treats.


I didn't have time to take anymore pics as I was busy juggling pizza, kids & the like. Each family purchased their own pizza and the group leader picked it up. Ours worked out perfectly for us. We then had tables of desserts and drinks to choose from as each family had brought one of each to share. At the end the children all exchanged Valentines. It was a fun day!

Kristine,

What fun!! I'm so glad that you are making some friends, and I will pray specifically for Sweet Pea - that she will soon find a "kindred spirit" and feel completely at home. I'd love some more details on your new church. :)
