Upcoming Events...


We missed all of you who were out this morning due to field trips or sick kiddos! :) Today's meeting was lots of fun, and I'm not sure how many Operation Christmas Child boxes we actually finished...but I do know that we still need shoeboxes if you've got 'em.

Mark your calendars...there's lots of fun stuff coming up!

This Sunday, 10/18: Brenham Mommies is hosting a play date at Fireman's Park, 2-4 PM. Check their website for more info!

10/19-23: We're providing dinners for Baby Shelby and her family (Melissa Manning!). Tracye has each day covered, but if you'd still like to provide a meal I'm SURE Melissa would appreciate something she can toss in her freezer. :)

10/22: Play date at Tracye's house! Please give her a call if you plan on going--979.865.8648--or if you need directions.

10/29: MOPS Play Date at Fireman's Park, 9-11 AM...bring your kiddos in costume and enjoy play time and free rides on the Carousel!

Remember, October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month--make a self-exam part of your routine, and arm yourself with the facts about this disease. 6 women--all under the age of 35--were diagnosed in Washington County last month alone, friends. That's 6 too many!

11/5: our next MOPS meeting. :) Sue's table is in charge of breakfast.

And speaking of breakfast...Laura brought an amazing casserole this morning and we held her down until she gave up the recipe. Just kidding, but we did bug her a whole lot!

Here it is: Breakfast Casserole

8 oz. can crescent rolls
8 oz. cooked ham or breakfast sausage
6 eggs
1/2 cup milk
1/2 tsp. pepper
1 cup cheddar cheese
1 cup mozzarella cheese

Roll crescent rolls out on 9x13 dish. Sprinkle (cooked) meat on rolls. Beat eggs, milk, pepper with whisk and pour over meat. Top with cheeses. Bake at 350 degrees for 25 minutes or until center is set.

A little MOPS scavenger hunt...

A little blog birdy told us that someone's 13 weeks pregnant.
You gotta read the blogs to find out.
I'll give you a freebie: it's not the Pharaons.

Fun with Friends!

Today was an AWESOME meeting, ladies--wasn't it a great time to sit and reflect on friendships, and what they bring to our lives? What an amazing group of women...you are each a blessing, and it's been so fun getting to know you all. (I can speak for the group there, right?!)

So, what's next...

*they're placing a bag order now...
*and the final order is due 10/15. Please have people make checks out to CHAMPION FELLOWSHIP. (oops, I did MOPS...you're not alone!)

*next meeting: 10/15. We'll put together Operation Christmas Child boxes...I'll post who's bringing what as soon as I get that info. Definitely, definitely bring shoe boxes, though--don't recycle any this next 2 weeks, save them for MOPS. (You recycle, right? No pressure...)

*fun stuff coming up...

-10/22, 10-12 @ Tracye's house...fall festival!
-10/29, 9-11 @ Fireman's Park...MOPS Costume Party (Carousel included!)

Also, welcome to our new Moms: Jennie, Julia, and Laura. We're so glad you've joined us on our journey! :) We've added Jennie's blog to our roll on the right...check it out.
