Conference Preview

June 4, 2011 by Minnesota Mom Filed Under: Homeschooling, Minnesota Me, Special Events 15 Comments

Ever your obedient blogger, I made sure to get a picture of “the dress” last night.

MCHEC II

Unfortunately, I had the zoom lens on my camera.

Aren’t those pinstripes cute, though?

Okay, fine.

I’m kidding.

MCHEC Conf I

Here’s a photo of John & me with Andrew Pudewa.

Happy?

(I was. I love hanging out at homeschooling conferences!)

There’s more to come but it must be later. Are you kidding? Mass starts at 7:15 and I need to scoot!

(Note: Today I’ll do my scooting in more sensible shoes.)

(Phew.)

Happy First Saturday!

    You look gorgeous, Mags. Excellent dress choice. Really wish that I could be there to hear (heckle) you and John. I'm sure you'll be spectacular, memorable, and very funny as always. I'm praying for you all day…Love you!

    You look lovely! The contrast of black and white makes your gorgeous hair shine even more.

    I love hanging out and homeschool conferences too. Not so much for the sessions, but for the old friends I never see!

    Mags, you look beautiful! I'm sure it all went fantastically well.

    Now tell me what I should wear to a summer wedding. 🙂

    You looked great in that dress! How fun to get out and have an opportunity to dress up. Thanks for including Mr. Pudewa in your picture. Now, I know you've mentioned that you are on the … um, lower end of stature, but I didn't realize just how tall A.P. is. Watching him on the dvds, I got the impression he was also… on the lower end of the stature scale. ;o)

    God Bless,

    Stacy

    You're a knockout, MN mom!!!!!! 😉
    I love your "sensible shoes" comment. I always pick the wrong pair for the wrong thing – so my feet always hurt. Even in my "slippahs" (as HI calls flip flops).

    Glad you had a great time!

    Andrew Pudewa! I remember taking his classes each year as a kid and loving them…16 years ago or something like that? Oddly he still looks exactly the same.

    Love the dress!

Hi there!

I’m Margaret in Minnesota, and this is my mom's-eye perspective of a kid-heavy life. I love the Lord; I take lots of photos; and I always try to tell it like it is, from sex to depression and everything in between! I hope you enjoy your time here. ♥
