Just to let you know...

I talked to Michelle tonight and we both are unable to make it to Splash tomorrow. I feel really bad having to ditch out this week, but I want to make sure that anyone who is planning on going knows we won't be there! There might be other women from the ward going, but I never know who...so if you are wanting to go, it might be best to call someone else and make sure you won't be alone. Happy swimming to all who go, we'll be missing you!

October Is Here!

With fall just around the corner, there is some serious fun to be had! I love October because it seems there is always so much going on and everyone is ready for a good party. Well look no further…we’ve got some fun activities planned! :) As the previous post mentioned, we will be meeting every Wednesday except the second and fourth weeks in which we will be meeting on Friday. Also, I am still looking for volunteers to plan activities (maybe a craft/treat/outing etc. for a specific date). Please let me know via a comment or e-mail if you’d be willing to help out and which week you would like to take. Thanks for your help and participation ladies – you are wonderful! And now for October’s schedule…

Wednesday 10/6: Nursery Room

FRIDAY 10/15: Hayride and Pumpkin Picking at Lone Pine Farms! (details to come…)

Wednesday 10/20: Nursey Room

FRIDAY 10/29: Halloween Extravaganza! (also more details to come…)

Our "New" Schedule!

Hi All!

So after MUCH deliberation, we have finally made a decision on a meeting time for our playgroup….ready?...NO CHANGE! We have come to the conclusion that ultimately it works the very best for the most people involved to keep our playgroup scheduled for WEDNESDAYS at 10:30. I know the vote was for Tuesday’s, but it seems that for the most part those who voted for Tuesdays could do Wednesdays as well, but those who need Wednesdays can’t do Tuesdays due to kiddos’ school schedules, work etc. I sincerely hope that this works for everyone…we really want this playgroup to be accessible and convenient to as many women as possible. If you have any serious complications, please let me know – otherwise we’ll see you all on Wednesday!

P.S. to facilitate those that work every day but Friday, we have decided to do our “party playgroups” on Fridays in October. Please note on your calendars that the 2^nd and 4^th full weeks of October we will be getting together on Friday rather than Wednesday. Those will be our Pumpkin Hayride (10/15) & Halloween Bash (10/29) weeks! You won’t want to miss them! :)

Halloween Party

I think doing a Halloween party for the kids would be a ton of fun, especially since Halloween is on a Sunday this year. I have some really cute Halloween treat ideas, including owl cupcakes the older kids can put together themselves. Would everyone else be interested in doing this towards the beginning of October though? I'm due Nov. 1st which means end of October is going to get really tricky for me. We could even do pumpkins if we wanted (my family used to paint or do markers when we didn't want the mess of carving).

The plan for today!

Hey Ladies!
Sorry this is such late notice, but in case anyone is wondering where to go…I think we are going to head to Putters (still looks pretty wet outside!) Unfortunately I have work today so I won’t be able to make it, but I hope you all have a blast at Putters and I look forward to seeing you all next week at Lone Pine. Can’t wait!

Indoor Playground Possibility?

Today was the first day of school for my two older ones and I've realized how much they help entertain my one-year-old. Now that their gone I'm left to do all of the amusement and I must say I am not the greatest at it. Seer has a lot of fun when she is allowed to run around without any restrictions so I searched for a safe play place where she can "be let loose." I found this Tiny Tot Indoor Playground that may be fun. Its a co-op so you pay $96 for September through June access.

Here is some more information and a link to their site:

The playground is a safe and fun environment for families with children birth through 5 years old, organized and run by our community of Co-Op members. It's a great place to enjoy energetic play during the rainy season in Eugene, Oregon. Please contact us at info@tinytotscoop.org for more information.

Has anyone looked into reserving the church gym for playtime? I thought that may be fun too?
