Meeting - How to look cute on a budget!

Hi ladies! Hope you all had a fabulous weekend! I know we just saw each other a few days ago, but the way the calendar falls this month, it's meeting time again!

I'm sure many of you can relate...pregnant and/or nursing the last 4 years of my life has taken its toll on my sense of fashion! I mean let's be honest, no one 'plans' to become the stay-at-home mom who's lives in pj's/work-out/lounge clothes, and I'm fairly certain I swore that would not be me! But you know, I LOVE my pj's. And for a season (or two, or three...) it's okay. And, besides that, who wants their nice clothes puked (or, ahem, poohed) on?!

So, join us this Thursday evening for a segment we'd like to call, 'How to look cute on a budget'! Tiffany Porter is our special guest speaker, and will walk us through some fun fashion ideas, using things that most probably already have in your closet. And, as mothers of little people, modesty is of course a priority. If you are able, we ask that you bring a scarf, or some article of clothing or accessory, that you no longer need/wear, and we'll do a fun little swap, so you'll end up taking home something "new"! If you don't want to participate in the exchange, not a problem, please come anyway!!**Correction: bring any article of clothing or accessory that you do not use any more, and learn fun new to ways to use them!

Thursday, November 15, 7:30-9:30pm @ COS (Church of the Shepherd) 1600 W. 13th Street in Grove. Friendly reminder, there is no childcare provided for evening meetings. *Ladies assigned to bring snacks: Michelle Sorochman, Krista Sampson, Katie Schauf, Rachel Harrison.

Calendar Dates: Please read carefully as we have changes for December!

*WED, DEC 5, 9:30-11:30am - Drop and Shop. Literally, drop your children off at COS, and spend the next few hours shopping the local merchants of Grove! Because this is not a regular meeting and we the mamas will be off-site, and for the safety of all involved, this is available for current MOPS of Grove members only, please do not invite friends to drop off their children. Also, you must RSVP for childcare by MON, DEC 3, so that we can ensure enough childcare workers.

*WED, DEC 12, 9:30-11:30am - Playdate @ COS. PJ party for the kiddos and cookie exchange! Perfect opportunity to invite new friends to experience what MOPS is all about!!

*THURS, DEC 20, 7:30-9:30pm - Christmas Party @ COS. For mothers only (childcare is not provided for evening meetings) Please bring your favorite dessert or appetizer!

If you have any questions about anything, please feel free to contact any one of the Leadership! Also, make sure to check Facebook (don't rely on your newsfeed) often for the most up to date information; it’s the easiest way to communicate last minute changes!! See you soon!
