It’s been kind of quiet here at Hodgepodge this week. But you wouldn’t have thought that if you’d seen us!
We’ve enjoyed Vacation Bible School all week! All the family took part in one way or another – except for Eldest Girl who was away at Impact Camp.
We also celebrated Nana’s birthday! In hodgepodge style, of course – supper, cake, Pride & Prejudice, and a birthday car parade.
Plus, all this week I have been over at Curriculum Choice with the review authors, participating in iHomeschool Network’s summer hopscotch! <– there’s your weekend reading for you!
I invite you to join in! There are some really great giveaways you won’t want to miss…
Five Days of Choosing Homeschool Curriculum
- Monday – Choosing Preschool and Kindergarten Curriculum
- Tuesday – Choosing Elementary Homeschool Curriculum (with a giveaway from Answers in Genesis!)
- Wednesday – Choosing Middle School Curriculum (with a giveaway from Answers in Genesis!)
- Thursday – Choosing High School Curriculum
- Friday – Choosing Homeschool Curriculum for Multiple Ages (with a giveaway from Apologia!)
And my sweet friend, Barb-Harmony Art Mom, shared a wonderful review of A Simple Start in Chalk Pastels – with a giveaway and discount code! “This is much like Harmony Fine Arts….both my plans and Tricia’s ebook are a product of working with our own children and then sharing the plans with other homeschooling moms.”
One more fun party you should know about – it’s a Pinterest Party! The Ultimate Homeschool Pinterest Party will be happening again starting at midnight tonight and running the week. I’m co-hosting right here at Hodgepodge. Join us!
What a great couple of weeks it’s been! Many thanks to our Friday hostesses!
- Collage Friday hostess Mary at Home Grown Learners
- Homeschool Mother’s Journal at iHomeschool Network
- Weekly Wrap-Up hostess Kris at Weird, Unsocialized Homeschoolers
How’s your summer? And how did it get to be the middle of June already?
Phyllis at All Things Beautiful says
Happy, Happy Birthday, Nana. {hugs} Look how big your VBS is. Living out in the boondocks, we never get a group of that size.
Hodgepodgemom says
Phyllis – thank you!! I will surely pass your happy birthday wishes along to Nana. We had an amazing VBS week – and there ended up being about 550 children 🙂
Tristan says
Looks like a really fun week!
Our summer is going well, we had Cub Scout day camp all week for one son and got to take the other six kiddos up for the last day. Still growing baby #8 and on countdown to his birth next month.
Renee @ Great Peace Academy says
Love love love VBS week. There is just nothing like it on earth!
Stopping in from Collage Friday! Have a great next week Tricia!

Quiet? That doesn’t look quiet 😉
