Tues January 8

Christmas is over. I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday! Now life is back to a normal schedule, including Mom's Group. This week is a 2nd Tuesday, which means Fellowship Time. How about we let our little ones play in the Fellowship Hall (I know mine are a bit stir crazy from being indoors during this cold snap) and we just visit together? I'll bring a snack to share, you are welcome to do likewise. I'll have a sign up for leading/snacks/fellowship for the next few months. Next week, January 15, is the beginning of our Colossians study. It's in the same book as the Philippians study, so don't worry about needing to purchase another book. We still need 2 people to help with childcare, so go ahead and recruite! Even if you find someone that can only come once or twice, that would be great. And remember, there is monetary compensation plus a reward in heaven. =) Contact me if you have any questions, and Rachel too (she gets back on January 10th).

Playtime on Tuesday

Mommies, this Tuesday November 13 we get to play at Arctic Oasis! Marci is sponsoring us to get on the base, so meet at the Elmendorf Boniface gate at 10:30 AM. You will need your driver's license, vehicle registration, and proof of insurance. Bring a sack lunch or you can buy lunch at the cafe there (pizza, hot dogs, burgers. etc). The next Tuesday we'll be back in the Fellowship Hall working on Week 4 of the Philippians study.

Fun fun fun

but probably not in the sun.... Okay, yes I have little ones and sound too much like Dr. Seuss. The next two Tuesdays have FUN built right in them. This week, Tuesday October 23, we'll be at Rachel's house for fellowship (that's mean yakking and kids playing and snacks, always yummy ones too). The next week, October 30, is Craft Day in the Fellowship Hall. I talked to the babysitters about coming and watching kiddos, so the moms will have free hands and minds to work on crafts. I'll be bringing my sewing machine, others will probably bring scrapbooking/cardmaking/etc, though just sitting and drinking a hot beverage and visiting is just as welcome if you're not feeling particularly crafty. =)

Sweet Baby Boy

Paul Thomas R. was born Sunday morning October 7 at 7:05 AM, weighing 8 lb 2 oz. He's a beautiful dark haired little guy, and mommy & daddy and big sister Isabella are happy to be home with him.

For October 9

Since we all have little ones and husbands, I thought it would be helpful to learn about haircutting. Chris S. will come and give a demonstration with my little guy and possibly other volunteers. We're meeting in the Fellowship Hall at 10 AM. If you'd like to bring a snack, that would be great! Thanks for the great study and discussion today, and thanks to Nancy for starting us out right. =) October 16 is our next study meeting, so work on Week 2 of the Philippians study. If anyone is reading this that would like to join, it's not too late! Just send me an email and we'll get you a book.

Tuesday September 25

Ladies, we're headed to visit with Kristi in her new house! I'm planning on heading over around 10 am, so see you there!

Our Last Park Day - Carlson Park

Hi mommies, the rain looks like it's holding off today, so let's go play! Carlson Park directions - New Seward to 36th Ave. Left on Lake Otis. Left on Cornell, just across from Wendler Junior High. Park your car on the street. Access to Carlson Park is on a pathway between some of the houses. This is the park that we played at when the Russian missionary was visiting, there's a stocked lake at the park along with a sandy playground and big grassy field.

Next week is our official fall start! We have at least 2 babysitters lined up, but if anyone has leads on more, that would be great. We'll be starting at 10:00 AM, bring a brunchy item and $8 to pay for the study book.
