Thank you to the VERY special ladies (steering team moms, mentor moms, and even some veteran MOPS moms - you all know who you are) that have stepped in to help when an extra hand is needed for our MOPPETS.  We thank you for your time, effort, and most of all the beautiful gift you offer by giving up your MOPS time for the sake of other moms.  
Antiquities pictures will be in on Tuesday, Nov. 30th. Come to the nursery to view them and pick up your 10x13. What a great gift for the In-Laws.. eh? E-mail Jill with questions jillinaz@cox.net

Mommy Personalities 11/04

They say you can tell a lot about a person by what they eat.  I don't know who they are, but I know which table we can surely call sweet for this past meetings food!.... Sweet Pea table, you did a great job bringing some sweet treats our way.  Thank you for hosting.

Thank you Steering Team for the confection of the Mommy Personality MOPS meeting this past Thursday.  It was such a treat to have Casey outline our Personalities Styles.  Here is the link to investigate further. http://www.motherstyles.com/quiz.asp and http://quizzes.familyeducation.com/motherstyles

There is a theme in this post.  How sweet it is to have you in our lives, Andrews family.  Can you believe we raised over $1,000.00 for the Andrews family through the Antiquities fundraiser?  Thank you to all of the families who supported this effort. Sweet Dreams are made of these.... kind of MOPS moms!

The Portraits of our little sugar dumplings will be back for viewing on Tuesday, Nov. 30th in the church nursery. 


On with the sweets... if you are trying to get rid of any Halloween candy, you can bring the hard candies to our next meeting 11/18  for Operation Christmas Child Packing Party.
