A GOOD IDEA

One of my friends does a "back to school" dinner with her kids and it has always seemed like such a great idea. Last year I forgot but this year she reminded her blog readers and so we did it tonight. We had a great time eating together, learning our family verse for the year, setting some personal goals and praying for the school year and for Mrs. Jensen and Mrs. Grutsch (especially Mrs. Grutsch since she will have Camden!).

Here are the details and pictures of our night......
