Cars, Cars, Cars

We had a Car party with our homeschool group today. It wasn't a Disney Cars party but a "any type of car" party. We gathered at the home of one of the mom's mom's house (she has land like we do) and let the kids outside to run wild. Most everyone around here lives in a subdivision so they really enjoy when the kids have an acre or more to run free. After letting the kids ride on their motorized cars (*sidenote below), we went back inside and had lunch together, making our burritos into cars with pretzels and cheese. One of the mom's painstakingly cut cheese into circles to achieve the tires for our car burritos - so nice of her!!

This group has already produced some wonderful friendships. It is rare that a group of women get together and there is no drama and even after quite a few events, there is still no drama. It is so NICE!! We have quite a few events coming up together. I love that the kids are all about the same age (except no one has #3 yet but us) and I love that we are like minded in the homeschooling aspect and what that brings. Fun times, Ya'll - Fun Times!


*Our kids don't have a motorized car. They really enjoyed driving around the other kids' cars. I think we are going to get them a John Deere Gator. L did a great job driving, only getting in trouble once for ramming another vehicle. She was hesitant to drive, only wanted to ride with another driver but eventually she hopped in the driver seat and there was no holding her back. Even S got in on the action and drove. At one point he was a passenger and another little girl, J, was in the driver seat and she was steering while S was pushing the gas.
