What a Blast!

We've been having a BLAST this month at MOPS!


Big thanks to our fundraising maven, Emily, who pulled off a HUGE October Blast! We earned more than $400!

We had a great time helping decorate and package all the AMAZING treats our moms donated. Emily was pretty brave to have all that frosting and all those kids in her house at once!






And thanks to all the cuties who showed up to Trunk or Treat!






From my little monster to yours, Happy Halloween!!

Inspired Family Health at our Oct. 22 Meeting

Whew! Does anyone else feel like you're playing catch-up ALL THE TIME this time of year?? (Could be why this blog is almost a week late—better late than never, right?!?)

At our next meeting, Kristi Raisch of Inspired Family Health will be sharing some of her best family health strategies with us. Kristi is a Holistic Health Coach and works with women and families to find the food and lifestyle choices that best suit them. You can visit Kristi's website and like her on Facebook for more information!


What to Expect:

This week we'll be talking about family health with Kristi Raisch, raffling off some great prizes and planning for our Operation Christmas Child winter service project.

Don't Forget:

  • Butter Braid collection forms are due at this meeting! Don't miss out on having a few of these tucked away in your freezer for easy entertaining.
  • Blue, Green and Orange tables are bringing food for this meeting, and Yellow will be cleaning up.
  • Don't forget: the FCC Trunk-or-Treat is Oct. 25, and MOPS will be having a bake sale! Emily Klopstein, our Fundraising Diva, will be having a decorating play date at her house on Thurs., Oct. 24 to get ready. Talk to Emily about donating baked goodies or coming to the play date!
  • Our next all-MOPS play date is Nov. 4 at Little Monkey Bizness.
  • Has your table had a play date this month? Talk to your DGL about getting one together!
See you on Tuesday!

Sign Up for Fall Photos at our Next MOPS Meeting!


Our Oct. 8, 2013 meeting is going to be CHOCK-A-BLOCK full of cool stuff you don't want to miss! Here's the rundown:

What to Expect:

It's our Fall Craft Day, and we'll be making something fabulously crafty from our Craft Maven, Erin! She'll also have the supplies to make diaper bag tags again if you didn't get to make one last time, or if you'd like to make one for a second kiddo.

We'll also be talking about that terrible "compare and despair" game we all play as moms—and how to overcome it!

Don't Forget:
  • It's Fall Photo Signup day! Check out the gorgeous images from our photographer in the slideshow above. This year we will have two locations, so even if you've done fall photos before and were hoping for a different look, we've got you covered. Be sure to bring your calendar and your checkbook if you want to sign up—the slots go super fast! Fall photos cost $50, and fully half of that goes to support MOPS. It's an amazing deal all around.
  • If you haven't paid your dues or turned in your paperwork, be sure to see Brooke at this meeting. She'll be at the welcome table before we start.
  • Have you sold any Butter Braids yet? Orders will be due at our next meeting, Oct. 22.
  • Our food tables for this week are Yellow, Purple, and Pink and our cleanup table is Blue!
See you there!
