February's Letter from the President

Hi Ladies,

We have made it through the holiday season and are now looking to the Spring. Unfortunately, we will get a cold snap in tomorrow so don't put away those winter close just yet. Make sure to button up for Thursday nights meeting too. It should be chilly. We will serve some yummy hot chocolate to take off the chill.

Valentine's Day is just around the corner so this monthly meeting will be dedicated to LOVE. My favorite subject! :) We are going to discuss the 5 Love Languages after a brief business meeting. We will also work on making hand-crafted Valentines. Please bring a yummy Valentine desert to share with the crowd. Sewing group and Scrapbooking will meet after the meeting. This is a great opportunity to try out one of our most popular special interest groups and visit with friends.

This month we will also be taking a Field Trip to Kiddie Acres. This is a great field trip with lots of good picture opportunities, so fire up those cameras and sign up. Later in the month Jessica N. and Anna T. will be hosting Game Night (Thanks for taking over girls!) We will have a wine tasting Mom's Night Out and on Valentine's Day, Arts and Crafts for the kids. Towards the end of February, we will have a Family Meetup so we can get those hubby's out and making friends too. Make sure to check out the listing of Events on our Facebook Page where you will also find the Book Club's next book and meeting date.

This time of year is also when we start looking forward to the next year of Mom's Club. This is your club, you create it. I invite you to consider what position you would be interested in filling next year. We ask that everyone in the club take on something during the year. It can be as big as the Presidency or as small as working on a Committee for a party or fundraiser. This next year will be filled with opportunities to participate so join in the fun and show up for yourself and the group. Oprah hosted a show on creating Happiness last week, and in the show, they said if a woman attends one women's group or club meeting a month her happiness level increases dramatically. So, it isn't only good for you it is good for everyone. The survey for next year's opportunities will go out soon.

Happy February!

January Newsletter

Hello NAMC Mommies,

I hope you had a wonderful holiday with your family and a Happy New Year! This month NAMC is getting off to a slow and easy start with Chillaxin in January as the theme of our meeting. We are going to visit and catch up after the holidays and have some fun with playing Apples to Apples. Come join the fun and sign up to bring a snack to share or just come as you are. We may also run over to the Mexican Restaurant near by to do some more Chillaxin after the meeting, time permitting.

Please check in on our FB Group to see any upcoming events and sign up to have some fun.

Happy New Year!

Danor Padden
