Cookie Exchange

Hey Ladies. Our last meeting until after the holidays will be on December 8th. It will be a cookies exchange at my house. It will start at 10ish and last until you guys get ready to leave. In case you haven't ever participated in a cookie exchange, the idea is to bring a couple of dozen cookies and trade with everyone else's cookies to result in taking a plate of "variety" cookies home with you! We are going to have lunch, probably pizza, so just bring your cookies and your kids!
Besides the cookie exchange, I am planning a play date for Tuesday December 15, probably at the library or chick-fil-a. I'll keep you guys posted on the place and time. Until then, have a good holiday season!

Events to come!

Hey ladies. It was good to be at MOPs on Tuesday. As the holidays approach, we are planning a few special events. On November 30 and December 1st we are planning a shopping day for mommies! The plan is to meet at the church and divide and conquer. Half of the women will leave their kids with the other half of the women and go shopping for three hours. Use this time to get Christmas shopping done, pamper yourself, sleep as some said... whatever you choose. Then the next day, we swap! Hope you guys come and enjoy.

Also, we are planning a Christmas cookie exchange, but dates have not been finalized. I hope everyone is doing ok with all this sickness around. I know my kids have had some bad days of fever. Please let me know if I can do anything for you guys and I hope to see you all on the 30th.

On Thursday night, well technically Friday morning, the movie "New Moon" will be showing at the Malco. The times start at midnight and they have several showings. If any of you are sucked in by the Twilight saga and would like to go, we have a group started. Just let me know if you would like to go.

See ya girls!

Tomorrow's Meeting

Hey Ladies! If you haven't read on facebook... I am in Mississippi visiting my friend Katie. I really have missed you guys. The craft tomorrow is a really fun one. I have given Jennifer Martin all the supplies and she will be guiding you. It's a ruler with close pins decorated cutely and magnets on the back to put on your frig, file cabinet, or whatever you choose to display pictures, coupons, post-its, etc. I hope you enjoy the craft. Please call me with any questions.

Also, Sarah mentioned that dues are due tomorrow and are 23.95. That is strictly for the MOPs organization. See you guys next time. I will be posting any events for the month at a later date.

And if any announcements need to be posted please email me or post a comment. Hope you guys are enjoying the blog.

Welcome!

Ok everyone here is our new blog. My hope is that everyone can contribute to this blog, so feel free to use the comment section to make suggestions or announcements or whatever you want to say.... I hope I can keep this up to date with all the information about what's happening with our mops group. Sorry I missed this morning, I really did just blank...
I mentioned this morning that Tomorrow at the Main Library here is Fort Smith, they are having a make and take craft day from 9:30 a.m. to 7 p.m. All children of any age are welcome. They have toddler story time at the main library every Tuesday at 10 a.m., so on the days of no mops meeting, you guys should go. It's a lot of fun and there are all kinds of ages of kids, even babies.
Also, this Saturday, October 17 at Chick-fil-A from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. there will be the Touch a Truck event. There are all kinds of different trucks, fire trucks, tow trucks, FedEx, etc. The kids can climb inside the vehicles, touch the trucks and the drivers are there to tell them all about the truck.
The Craft next meeting, Oct. 27, is going to be fun. It will involve some painting and just a little creativity. Make sure and bring your picture, either 4x6 or 5x7. If I'm not there, I'll make sure you have everything you need.
Feel free to add any announcements I've missed, or please tell me favorite websites and I'll add them to the list. Like I said use the comment section to tell me anything you want and I'll add it!
