Tuesday, 12/17: Movie Playdate!

The weather outside might be frightful, but that's all the more reason to pile the kids in the car and join us at Calvary's Boulder campus for our December playdate! Allie has put together a fun morning for us, which starts at 10 a.m. The highlight will be watching VeggieTales: Saint Nicholas: A Story of Joyful Giving on the big screen in the Fellowship Hall. Be sure to bring blankets and pillows, and kiddos are welcome to wear their pajamas.

MOPS will provide popcorn and hot cocoa for snacking, but feel free to bring other snacks with you (ahem, Kelly...).

The kids can color on provided Christmas coloring sheets, and they can also participate in a Christmas ornament craft.

See you on Tuesday!

Tuesday, 12/10: Christmas Brunch

Please put on your holiday best and join us at our special MOPS Christmas Brunch on Tuesday! This a great meeting to invite other moms to attend. They can get a feel for our group before (hopefully) deciding to sign up to join us regularly during Spring semester. 

MEETING TOPIC: Christmas Brunch

WHEN: Tuesday, 12/10 from 9 a.m. to 11:30 a.m.

WHERE: Fellowship Hall at Calvary Bible Church (3245 Kalmia Ave., Boulder, CO 80301)

FOOD will be provided by Stephanie's and Joanna's tables (Thank you!)

We will start with a welcome message and prayer before we enjoy a special Christmas brunch and play "High/Low" at our tables. 

After announcements, one of our lovely Mentor Moms will read an excerpt from The Best Christmas Pageant Ever. 

Then, Calvary's Senior Pastor Tom Shirk will deliver a Christmas message. Seeing as how the story of Christ's birth was quite 'A Beautiful Mess,' I am sure there will be plenty of take-away's from Tom's talk.

We will finish our meeting with time for discussion: our thoughts on Christmas, our Christmas plans with our families, and/or an in-depth extension of High/Low. This is YOUR meeting, so make it what you want!

See you on Tuesday!

Loving on our Kids: Kristy Landry

Arms feeling sore and tired and ready to fall off? Then let Kristy Landry take care of baby snuggling duties while you relax at MOPS! Here is a picture of Kristy with her own sweet baby girl, Natalie. See?! She's a natural!

NAME: Kristy Landry

MOPPETS Title: Infant Room

BIRTHDAY: June 17 (hmm... what is it about MOPPETS workers named Kristy/i being sneaky about their ages??)

HOMETOWN: Mesquite, Texas (a suburb of Dallas)

CHILDCARE EXPERIENCE: Kristy started babysitting around the age of 10, and also helped in several church children's programs.

FAVORITE THINGS: She loves to read, scrapbook, needlepoint, do almost anything crafty, ski and swim.

FUN FACT: When Kristy was about 6, while playing softball, she somehow managed to hit herself in the mouth with the bat and knocked out her front tooth. Then when she was 14, the cap came off while eating a sucker mere days before her brother's graduation. She looked upset in all the pictures because she couldn't smile! (I wonder why she didn't send one of those pictures to me?)

Thank you for your service, Kristy!
