MOPS Christmas Craft & Other Reminders

Hello ladies! I have a few reminders for you!

First, the TV showings of Focus on The Family's "Irreplaceable" are tonight. It’s a documentary that seeks to uncover whether or not family still matters in today’s society and to understand the importance of family in today’s society.  It’ll be on Vision TV @ 5pm, Hope TV @ 6pm, Yes TV (Calgary) @ 6pm or you can stream it on your computer. It’s for 15 years of age & older.

Secondly, Brianna's work-out group will meet again tomorrow (Monday) morning from 9:15-10:15am. We want to remind you that you're welcome to bring your kids along. Her play room is just off of her workout room so it's easy to keep an eye on them.

This Thursday is MOPS! We'll be doing our Christmas craft and will each go home with 3 beautiful frames made of upcycled CDs or DVDs! We will have everything you need, but if you want to bring some old CDs or DVDs to use, feel free. They need to have no label/sticker on them. If you don't have any, don't sweat it as we've purchased all we need! PLEASE BRING A PAIR OR TWO OF SHARP SCISSORS. We'll each need a pair of scissors to make our frames so if you have an extra pair, it will help those who forget or who don't know to bring one.

Also, in the last email I send out I had said we were rescheduling our coffee night for Dec. 4. I had totally forgotten that we already have a moms' night out planned for that night! Sorry for the confusion! The correct event will be at "Colour Me Mine" in Airdrie to paint ceramics (at your cost), starting at 7:00pm. We'll have a sign-up sheet at the next MOPS so we have an idea of numbers. If you won't make it to MOPS, you can reply to this email to RSVP.

I think that's it! I will see you Thursday!

MOPS with guest speaker Ruth Clarence

Hello ladies! We have a great MOPS this week! We'll be welcoming back guest speaker and intimacy expert, Ruth Clarence. She'll be speaking on "How to get your husband to talk to you". She is so funny and informative, it should be a really great time! Please note that we WILL be starting on time so please arrive early enough to check your kids in and be at your table by 9:15!

A couple more things-

Unfortunately we aren't going to be able to make our "MOPS Christmas shopping" babysitting event work due to scheduling issues. We're hoping to do some sort of "date day" babysitting event happen sometime early next year, so we'll keep you posted.

Starting Monday, November 17th Brianna Anderson is opening up her home gym for a MOPS workout group! She will be leading a Curves gym style workout, with workout cards and rotating every few minutes between cardio and resistance exercises. The group will meet every Monday from 9:15-10:15am. It'll be drop-in, no long-term consistent commitment required. Just show up and see who your workout buddies will be that day! Stay tuned for directions to Brianna's house.

Our next MOPS Coffee Night at Humpty's will be Thursday, November 20th starting at 7:00pm.

I think that's it for now! See you Thursday at 9am!

Casual Connections tomorrow

Hi ladies! Just a quick (and late) reminder that we have our Casual Connections With God tomorrow morning, at the church at 9:15am, with childcare (free!) We'll be finishing the second half of the video "Crave the Documentary" and discussing. Desiree will be introducing a new video series in 2 weeks that sounds really interesting to all of us as moms, or just people in general! Stay tuned for more info!
See you tomorrow morning, and if not, at MOPS on Nov. 13!
