April 18 was a really busy day for us.

First, was a field trip to the Depot Museum in Henderson. http://www.hendersontx.us/index.asp?nid=61

This was a really nice field trip. It was a slight drive for us, but well worth the trip. For a very low price there was tons to see. I wish there were more opportunities like this near by. Here are just a few pictures.




I actually took over 70 pictures of this field trip. Right now it is a toss up to as whether I was just happy to finally remember to bring my new camera to an event or if there really was just that many cool things to take pictures. I decided to spare you the whole album and just give you a general overview. They also have a nice little pavilion that we were supposed to picnic in after the tour. But lo and behold 98% of us did not bring a picnic to eat! We may have a nicely diverse group but one thing we have in common is the reality that effort is just not fun! We went to Mickey D's instead! ROFLOL

Afterwards we got home just in time to freshen up, load supplies into the car, drop Emily off to her Daddy and Brandon & I went to our first ever Homeschool Barn Dance! I was a working it not an attender. However, I did make Brandon dance with me twice. The coolest thing about this event is that is was a fun raiser for a group member that has been fighting an expensive on going battle with cancer. OK, that was really runners up to seeing all these homeschooling kids that didn't know how to dance try to figure it out. The whole time we were planning this the big question was, "Will they dance?" Yes! They did! It took a lot of families to pull this off and it turned out wonderful. Big Kudos to all involved! I won't bore you with a bunch of pictures of kids you don't know trying to dance but here is a good picture of Brandon. I think I'll call it this year's school picture!
