January 31st Recap

Hi all!  Friday was another great MOPS meeting.  Many thanks to the purple table for breakfast!  It was delicious!  An extra-special thanks to those who brought Paleo-friendly items! :-)  You rock!

We would like to send out a HUGE thanks to our Mentor Moms for helping out with child care at the January 17th meeting.  You lovely ladies take such great care of us and we appreciate you so very much!!!

February 20th is our second dinner that we are providing for Young Lives.  We were all asked to participate in one of these dinners, so if you did not participate in the Thanksgiving feast you are up! We will need some volunteers to be there that night to help serve the dinner and set-up.  If you've never been to a Young Lives meeting, it is something very special.  Amanda Gates has a Sign-Up Genius going here:

Amanda is also gathering information for East Fort Bend Human Needs Ministry's Souper Bowl of Caring event in March.  Stay tuned for more information! http://www.souperbowl.org/

The monthly social with kids will be Tuesday, February 4th and Wednesday, February 5th at the Playscape at Sugar Creek Baptist Church from 9:30am-11am.

Heather Lovell led the Secret Sister reveal at our meeting.  If you participated in Secret Sisters and you were not able to attend the meeting, be sure to reveal yourself to your "sister" at our next meeting.

Meg Ruffing led us in a fabulous craft making nest necklaces.  They are super cute!  Thank you Meg!!!

 

 

 

As always, we were treated to a wonderful devotional by Cintia Listenbee.  If you missed the meeting, you can read it here: http://www.simplycintia.com/2014/01/friendship-as-fuel.html

 

Our next meeting is Valentine's Day!  Liz's gift to us is to have a "Day of Relaxation." Come to the meeting in your pj's (and bring your kids in their pj's too!) and use the time however makes you happy!  You can bring games from home, bring some nail polish and give yourself a manicure, bring magazines, bring an unfinished project and complete it while you chat with your new table members!  It's your day momma, enjoy it! 

 

Finally, we have some fabulous new faces in our group.  Meet them here!

Our next meeting is Friday, February 14th.  Red table is up for breakfast.  We are switching tables, so if you do not know where to go, consult Julia's spreadsheet on Facebook.  Hope all the sick kiddos (and sick mommies) are feeling better real soon.  Take care of yourselves!
