Pizza in the Park

Just in case you haven't heard- Our last official get together for this MOPS year our Pizza in the Park that we had scheduled at Baines Park has been canceled for today due to the rain. We will have some get togethers during the summer, so when I get that information I will certainly update you all here.
I know summer gets so busy, but sometimes it is just nice to slow down and reconnect with other MOPS moms so still check back for updates as I will do my best to pass things along to you!

Another note, I will be entering registrations for next MOPS year, there is a discount if you are registered early.This is for the MOPS International fee, not our Mops dues. The yearly fee is $21.95 as opposed to the regular $23.95. So there is some savings. Contact me if you haven't already and I will make sure to get you all signed up for another exciting year in MOPS!!

SPA DAY

Our last meeting was the best yet! We had our annual Spa Day. A day for the moms to get pampered, a day to refresh, to renew our minds, bodies and spirits. I have to say this one was the most Spa-like we have ever had! Truly you felt like you just stepped out of a professional spa. We had four stations, one which I do believe was everyone's favorite was the massage. Katie Fox had some of her students there giving us wonderful chair massages, Caryn Colahan was giving facials and paraffin wax treatments, Allison Arndt was doing mini pedicures, and our wonderful pastors were fixing up some made to order omelets!

Everything was soo good!Well it's hard to think we are wrapping up our MOPS year. Just two meetings remain. May 12th is our last meeting at Norwalk Alliance, we will be having a MOM & POP panel. We have 3 couples on hand to answer a variety of questions on the topics of parenting and marriage. Very Exciting! It also is the day we thank our moppets volunteers. Without these wonderful helpers, many of us would not be able to attend MOPS. So be sure to say THANK YOU to our teachers and volunteers when you bring in your kids. Let them know how wonderful they are!!

Our second meeting on the 26th will be at Baines Park. We will be providing Pizza, just bring a snack to share.
