Can't wait!

Just saw the question I'm supposed to answer! :) I'm mostly looking forward to finding some help (hopefully!) for my daughter who is struggling with reading.
I am looking forward to new inspiration to begin high school studies with our oldest at summer's end. Of course, I also can't wait to shop the UCS!!
I would like to hear what the Duggars say about homeschooling.

Thank you for all of the information. What a great giveaway!! :)
I just reread the information. Joel Salatin?! That is amazing. He is definitely my food and farm hero.
The last time I went to the convention was about 3 years ago, I believe. The diversity of the families represented really opened my wife and I's eyes to the beauty of homeschooling, and put to rest some commonly held conceptions also. I would LOVE to be able to get back this year and explore, learn and experience what the convention is like post-homeschooling, since the last time we were very new. We were more like deer in headlights than anything lol. Hopefully we can win this family pack and go with an entirely new perspective and a broader focus!
We went to the HEAV conference right before we started homeschooling a few years back. We were like deer in headlights at the time, with so much to see and absorb. What we did love was the diversity of families represented by the speakers/attendees. That was really encouraging and also dispelled many of the long-standing preconceptions about the homeschool community.
Now having homeschooled ourselves for several years, we'd LOVE the opportunity to return with a new perspective, really knowing what gaps we have and seeking to fill those gaps in a focused way. We believe the conference will be so much more beneficial now that we have direction and knowledge of our kids' learning styles. Would LOVE to win the family pack to make that happen :)
YAY! I can't wait for convention..I am triple excited!!!
I'd love to win this giveaway :-)
