Crafting Fun 11.10.10

For an ice breaker, Joy gave each group supplies to make a turkey, with the most creative one winning. The tail feather table won. Take a look at some pics!

Craft Day & Jesus' Birthday Party

Hi ladies ~

I hope you're looking forward to some fun and fellowship tomorrow as we look forward to a relaxing day of "getting our craft on". Come and enjoy making some useful crafts (great for gifts!) and get lots of tips for fun, cheap holiday crafts as well as hearing a devotional and spending some time getting to know other ladies in our group!

Also, just a reminder that if you are interested in attending our annual Birthday Party for Jesus with your 2.5 - 5 year old, Joy will be passing around a signup sheet for that activity at this week's meeting (we are capping the party at the first 24 kids that sign up and are paid for). Remember, this party is geared only towards kids ages 2.5 - 5 years old. We will provide FREE childcare for younger siblings so that you can just focus on helping your preschooler through the activities.

Here are some additional details:

Date: Tuesday, December 14th (we do NOT have MOM this week, as we are off for Christmas break for the last three weeks in December)
Time: 9:30-11:00 am
Cost: $5 per child (Joy will begin collecting this money this week. Your $5 is needed to reserve your child's spot.)

Also, we do still need 3 more volunteers to help out with craft and game stations that day. We are looking for moms that won't have kids celebrating there that day. If you have a child in this age group, we want you to really be able to just enjoy this time with your preschooler. SO, if your kids are in school, or even if you have ones that are too young to participate but you'd like to help out, we'd love to have you!

Questions? See myself or Joy Buntrock tomorrow and we'll be happy to answer them.
Looking forward to seeing you all tomorrow!
