What a weekend! I'm trying to recover from an overload of walking, talking, and lack of sleep. This remains one of the best events of the summer, and it was well worth the time of encouragement, teaching, and plethora of social interaction. Between workshops, traversing the vast vendor hall, visiting with friends, and helping customers at our friends' booth, the time is gone before you know it, leaving behind great memories and anticipation for next year. 

Here's a few special highlights….

^The one and only wonderful Camden Spiller, co-founder of Homeschool Alumni. He decided at the last minute to make the 6 hour drive to Columbus and we are certainly glad that he did! He's an enthusiastic, smile-packed ambassador for connecting homeschool graduates across the country, and proof that there's always more friends to be made. Our weekend wouldn't have been the same without him! He's the best. :-)

^ I had the privilege of meeting Gregg & Sono Harris, both excellent speakers and the parents of Alex & Brett at The Rebelution. Mrs. Harris possesses such a gracious and sweet spirit, and her enthusiasm and joy for serving the Lord is contagious. I thoroughly enjoyed her workshop on "Restoring the Art of Biblical Womanhood".

^Last, but certainly not least, I was able procure a picture with Ken Ham! I have practically grown up listening to him speak, whether in person or via tape, video, or print, and his message is still relevant and a great reminder even to this day. He's someone I look forward to exposing my own children to, Lord willing. I'm really excited about all the creation curriculum AIG is putting out these days…almost makes me wish I was little enough to go back to school again! :-)

There are a million other things I could tell you, but there isn't time or space. Suffice it to say that it was an excellent time well spent and entirely enjoyed. I love homeschoolers. ;-)
