Registration is Closed!

I told you it'd go fast! Our nurseries are full to capacity at this point. Therefore, registration for 2014-2015 is now closed. If you do not need to use our nurseries and have other child care options, we always have room. We would like to encourage everyone to fill out the registration form so we have your information on file. As the year goes on, we may be able to wiggle you in. So, please stay in touch!

2014-2015 Registration is Open!

Theme Verse: 

Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past. See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it? I am making a way in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland.  Isaiah 43:18-19   (NIV)

So, how 'bout it? Are you going to be brave? Are you going to join our group?
Well, you better hurry because we fill up quickly!

Be you, Bravely is designed to help us focus on making the choices that could create the most good in our lives, help us to step into healthy risk and to do it in the context of community where we can cheer one another on.

Come on and join us. We can't wait to meet you!

End of the Year Wrap Up

We've loved and laughed and cried and shared our Beautiful Mess of motherhood together. It's been a great year! We've finished the year strong with a leadership dinner at Blue Fish reminiscing about our time in charge and all we've learned. We had a cinco de mayo themed End of the Year party at Allison's house catered by Tijuana Flats. Michele won the best margarita contest for her delicious mango-ritas! Our last meeting was the day after Mother's Day. We "glammed it up" using our formal china and serving pieces. Each mom received a rose. We said thank you to our amazing mentor moms and good-bye to a few moms not returning. I feel so blessed with the farewell presented to me (the out-going coordinator) by the group. We even heard from Tracy, the new coordinator about how MOPS has saved her life. We finished with the Ring the Bell game. Pretty amazing stuff!

Check out this hot, beautiful mess!

And now summer is officially upon us! The leadership team had a kick off dinner to start planning the next year. The retreat will be later this summer- where the real planning takes place. Meeting topics and fundraisers will be voted upon. The team will receive training on how to minister best to the mothers of preschoolers in our area. We even had our first play date of the summer!
