Decide to Rise!

You guys! Let's Decide to Rise! Check out this year's theme video here. It's going to be good! We've had some fun play dates- the beach, Reddie Point Preserve and the zoo. 

We've had some fun girls nights- in the pool and watching Mulan. 

Our first meeting was successful. We are in need of nursery workers, so if anyone knows of anyone who would like to come and help with babies for a few hours, please reach out! We talked about what kinds of meetings topics we'd like to hear.


For our second meeting we did meal prep. We made 5 different freezer meals. 

    

Be sure to take advantage of MOPS International. The perks of that membership are really great right now during a pandemic. They started doing Facebook Live meetings every Tuesday. Take a look here. I love the Tuesday texts.

We have lots of fun coming up this fall. Come have fun with us!

Chasing Joy in 2021

I was thinking I'd be blogging once a month and then all of a sudden, it's January. Please, feel free to take over the blogger roll as I am failing. Let's do a recap. Our first meeting in November was moved to Tillie Fowler Park. Our one and only nursery worker, Carolyn had a COVID scare so she stayed home to be extra cautious. There also happened to be a scheduling error so we took that as a God Moment and moved to the park. We wrote thank you notes and talked about all the things we are grateful for. It was perfect timing headed into the Thanksgiving holiday.  Kate has been awesome at putting together girls nights and hosting them at her home. She even has party cups for us and a neat air filter system in her house to keep the air circulating in these COVID times. After Halloween she hosted a movie night to watch Witches.  Anne has been putting together some play dates. A group went to the beach, Cummer Museum , zoo and the Jax Arboretum in November. There have been a f...

Arise as a Mother

For our first meeting in March, we played games. It felt so good to laugh. I mean like real, belly laughs. Kate had to wrap herself in toilet paper as a mummy for half the meeting. Jinny had to sit under the table for the other half. It was a great stress reliever!  For our second meeting of March we had Erin Roskelly from First Command talk to us about finances. We discussed one family checking account, saving for kids colleges, life insurance and all sorts of money issues.  There were lots of fun play dates enjoying the gorgeous spring weather. One Tree Hill is a favorite as is the zoo and lots of parks in the area.  We did a Monday evening family bowling party. It was a great turn out. The kids loved to bowl and some parents got a chance to get in there, too. It's neat that the dads were excited to hang out again, too. We cleaned out our closets to bring to a clothing swap moms night out at Khristi's. I left with a bag of goodies. All the clothes not claimed were donat...
