Thankful

As we head into Thanksgiving what are some of the things you are thankful for this year?

Is it too soon to be thinking about Christmas?

I know its not even Halloween yet so thinking about Christmas already might just be too much. :) I am always looking for unique gifts and with small children, I do a lot of my Christmas shopping online. I thought I'd share this sight with you. The link should take you to the Silhouette circle but the sight has some other great things on it too. I thought the silhouette circles were very cute and engravable too.

Wasn't today great?

I loved hearing from Dr Edsion and Dr Edsion. All of the info they provided was so helpful! What a great meeting! :)

Don't forget we have MOPS tomorrow

I HAVE BEEN LONGING FOR THIS DAY ALL WEEK, AND IT IS FINALLY HERE. I CAN'T WAIT TO HEAR FROM JOY AND ALL THE DECORATING IDEAS THAT SHE IS GOING TO SHARE WITH US!! I HATED I MISSED THE PUMPKIN PATCH, BUT I AM EXCITED ABOUT THE BONFIRE THURSDAY NIGHT, I HAVE ALREADY TOLD BRYAN, I WOULD NOT BE HOME, THAT THEY WOULD BE ON THEIR OWN FOR DINNER. I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE EVERYONE TOMORROW!!!

Pass It On

Hi Ladies!
I have been searching for some new recipes and couldn't think of a better resource than our MOPS mommies. The food you guys bring to meetings is delicious! We thought this blog would be a good way to share our recipes. Please feel free to post your favorite recipe on here for all of us to share.

I would LOVE to have the recipe for the broccoli salad with the oriental noodles that was at our last meeting.

I can't wait to try some new things. See you at MOPS next Wednesday.

What a Great Meeting

I really enjoyed today's meeting. Gretchen shared a lot of wonderful information with us and the craft was great, Reagan was excited when I showed it to her. Can I say WOW, we have so many pregnant mommies right now, it is GREAT!!!! I think I counted 13. I have my work cut out for me!! I am so excited about all the new moms we have this year as well, it is wonderful to be able to meet new mom's that are going through what you are or have been through. Well I hope everyone enjoyed today as much as I did. I can't wait to go to the pumpkin patch on the 5th!!

Don't forget tomorrow is MOPS DAY!!!

Just a friendly reminder, to those of you that don't count down the days, We have Mops tomorrow, 10 am. I am ready for it, I will be at SYATP at 7:25am, and then I get to come and get my mommy time needs filled at MOPS. I do not know about anyone else, but my kids and been in rare form this week, I am ready for this week to be over, and start fresh again. They have been extremely needy, and Bryan has been at work all week so far (they haven't seen him since Saturday) he will come home this afternoon, I am counting down the minutes!!! I just want to go take a walk by my self. Ok enough venting. Everyone have a wonderful night, and I will see you in the morning!!! Don't forget to pack a lunch for the kiddos!!

See you at the Pole Wednesday the 26th

Next Wednesday is See you at the Pole. You can go before MOPS and still make it in plenty of time! Does anyone remember doing this when we were in High School? I do. It was a great public profession of faith for me. If you have kids in school go pray with them at the flagpole next Wednesday. Ours starts at 7:30 but it says 7:00 on the SYATP website. This is organized by students for students and anyone else that would like to join them.

I AM SO EXCITED

I am so excited about this MOPS year, we have a wonderful group of womens/mommies, and you can just feel GOD's presence in the room when we are together. I encourage those of you that are new to try to get as involved as your schedule allows, the rewards are awesome!!! I am looking forward to the Mom' s Night out's that we have planned every month this year, this is something new we are doing, we only had a couple of outings last year, but this is going to allow us to really get to know each other so much better, and it gives us a break from the little ones, for a couple of hours each month!! We all need that! I also want everyone to know that since I am the In Reach person, my doors are always open, please feel free to call me if you need something, or need a prayer said, or anything, that is what I am here for. I thank God for each of you each day.
Give thanks to the Lord, for He is good! His Faithful love endures forever. Chronicles 16:34
