I turn to you

one more homeschool/unschool group!
Dilemmas, dilemmas. Our family belongs to about 10 area homeschool/unschool groups. I like everyone of them for a different reason. However the last couple of weeks have left us driving all over the metroplex for park days. In all honesty, driving an hour and a half for a park day is crazy to me when there are perfectly good parks within 30 minutes of me-without roads right next to them I might add! I do want to meet many diverse people and go on field trips and hang out in cool off the beaten path places, I am just not willing to drive an hour and a half for a one day trip! That makes 3 hours in the beast with our sweet, yet fidegty kiddo's and that is if I don't hit traffic or an accident-which always seems to happen! So, not only is it socially irresponsible of me to drive so much, my kids do NOT like it @ all and it is wearing on me too. We met with one more small group of families today-yes one more, that means we now belong to 11 local area groups! Here are some pix from the park with more of our friends. I haven't done a very good job of taking pix this week. We have been to a couple other activites I just left the camera in the truck!

Mady has gone to Kansas with my dad for a couple of days so she is not in any of these. I hope she took pictures @ the Oz Museum! Niki had a blast @ the park with the other little girls that we met today, like she always does, though she claims she is shy! Luke and Ezra even played with kids besides one another today. It was a beautiful day to be outside. We were @ the park all day!
