Here is the encore presentation of our Mommy Rhapsody!  We had a lot of fun getting ready for this!

Only 1 more day!

THE WAIT IS ALMOST OVER!

TOMORROW IS THE DAY!

1st MOPS MEETING OF THE YEAR!

Prepare yourselves to go back in time...School days...College days...think subjects, think science, think art...Hanging out with friends...COME SEE WHAT WE HAVE IN STORE FOR YOU!!

Like I said before THIS IS A MEETING YOU DON'T WANT TO MISS! The steering team has been very busy planning something great to kick off our year.
Just a few reminders for you: DON'T SKIP THIS PART

1. We will start promptly at 9:30 am (until 11:30), and need you in your seats by then. Please come early enough to get your little ones settled into their rooms, so you can be on time. As always we will have our on time drawing!

2. We will be taking pictures for our directory tomorrow, so bring your best smiles. If you can plan a little extra time to get that done first thing that would be great. If you don't get your picture taken before the meeting make sure to get it done before you leave.
3. We are trying to get our home school group started tomorrow as well. If we have just 6-8 moms then they would only have to cover the kids class only 1-2 times each semester. It would be awesome to have these moms join our group. If you home school (or know of anyone) then come tomorrow and we will get you set up.
4. Please bring your forms for Moppets and your child's shot records.
5. We are expecting a lot of new moms, which means more children in our Moppets program. This also means that we will need more sweet, loving volunteers for our children. If you know of someone who would be good at this ministry please let us know ASAP. We don't want to overwhelm the workers that we have taking care of our precious little ones, and crowd the classes. We really would love more Moppets workers. Without them MOPS would not be possible for us!

6. Ask someone to come to the meeting with you. We would love to reach out to more mothers. REMEMBER: LET NO MOM MOTHER ALONE!

7. Come hungry! We will have a big breakfast waiting for you.

Looking forward to fun and fellowship with everyone!

National Convention

Last weekend some of the steering team traveled to Orlando for the National MOPS convention.  It was a long drive, but well worth it!  What an inspiring, spiritual weekend.  It was filled with lots of meetings, prayer, laughter, music, food, and banana grams games!  This was a view from the side of the hotel we were on.  This is the Key West area.  We had a balcony room overlooking this...that is right...this is all inside!  Really cool! 

These guys were at the other end of the hotel.  There were several more, and they did a little show for us on Sat. night feeding them.  In this picture they are waiting for some chicken to be thrown at them.

Here are your fearless leaders.  We  learned a lot this weekend, and are so very excited about this upcoming MOPS year.  There are so many great things planned that you won't want to miss out on!

This was part of our fun...Camera games!  You start the timer and then have to run around and end up back in front of the camera in time for a picture.  We did this several times and ended up with some funny pictures.

More that just fun

The steering team meet for a couple of days to plan out this coming years MOPS meetings. We worked very hard and stayed up way past our bedtimes planning, planning, planning. We are so excited about what is coming up and sharing it with all our wonderful mom friends.

Of course we did take a break to play for a while and recharge the batteries so the old thinkers could brainstorm terrific ideas.

Join us August 20th for our first meeting of the new year! We can't wait to see you there!!!

Spring Retreat 2010

Melissa Wood, Cheryl Dover, Chris Thurmond,MaryLynn Tinsley, Julie Wilkenson, Jennifer Kyle, Erin Williams, Kimberly Chosewood, Candi Coffman, Tiffany Murdock,Carolyn Wilson

Here is the crew that was able to go with us. Several people were able to participate in the scavenger hunt. Unfortunately there were many people who had things come up at the last minute, and couldn't make it. We had a great time with many laughs and lots of good food! The dates are already set for next spring, so mark you calendars now!


This was our view from the lodge we stayed it...it was a perfect place to be with friends!


A few of us went hiking at Amicalola Falls on our way home. It is such a beautiful place, and a great way to end the retreat!

2010 is here!

Hope your 2010 is off to a great start. Although our first MOPS meeting of the new year was cancelled due to inclement weather, we still have many exciting events planned! Please join us at our next meeting and find a way to get involved in MOPS.
