<span style="color: #b45f06; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; font-size: large;">Come enjoy watching your little ones (and medium and big kids) have a blast at the Mothers of Multiples Halloween Party, without having to do any set-up or clean-up! The church is putting on the party for us! It's October 29th at 6:30 p.m. Please RSVP on facebook or e-mail Dorothy at deedotsky@yahoo.com by Monday, October 27th. So far only 3 families have RSVP'd. The new pastor and several others are putting a lot of work into this party, but it won't be much fun if we don't have more kids.</span><br />

As usual we ask all attendees to bring a snack to share (appetizer or dessert). Membership meetings are open to all current, prospective members and even former members who want to re-connect to the group are welcome. </span><br />
<span style="color: #073763; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">We have only a little business to discuss, but ask that everyone try to make it by 7:00. We will be working on a project. The church where we meet is participating in a program to provide items for children who are spending their first night in foster care. The church has supplied the funds needed to make 20 fleece tie blankets and I volunteered our group to put them together. </span><br />
<span style="color: #073763; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">If your kids are old enough to tie knots or want to bring a helper along for this project they are welcome to join us.</span><br />
<span style="color: #073763; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Lastly, if you do come a little late to the meeting, please use the side kitchen door, it's to the left and up a couple of stairs. We will be locking the front door after the meeting gets underway since it is not in view from the hall where we have the meeting. </span><br />
<span style="color: #073763; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">I hope to see many of you there!</span><br />

Sorry I've been MIA.<br />
Our April board meeting was held on April 4, 2014 at Barb's house. <br />
The meeting started at 8 pm. Those in attendance were Lisa, Debbie, Denise, Sarah, Barb, and Carmen.<br />
We discussed the Ester party including possible crafts, snacks, and the Easter bunny. All topics were left hanging as we had to find a bunny, look for a craft, and decide on snacks. <br />
We followed this by talking about so,me possibilities of a place to meet for our May installation dinner. This too was tabled for a later time.<br />
We briefly talked about the groups finances and treasury. Decided that should the group continue the budget could be revised as we've spent less money this year than past years.<br />
Then we follows this by board elections coming up and the possibility of not having anyone who wanted to be a board member.<br />
The meeting concluded around 10 pm.<br />
<br />
Our April general meeting was held on April 17, 2014. The meeting started at 8 pm. There were 12 members present. We began by filling and counting Easter eggs for the party the following day. We then had some food while talking among ourselves.<br />
We voted on board members and also on donating money to the church. Dorothy Sommer made a motion to divide our church donation in half giving half to March of Dimes and half to the church. This was voted on and passed.<br />
Dorothy Sommer was the only person who wanted to run for a board position. We then discussed ways to change the group and decoded we could have a committee of no less than 3 people to work together. I (Carmen) motioned that Dorothy could essentially take over treasurer duties if Tabitha Bucknam would agree to step up with me to form the committee. She agreed and then Tammy DePotty also said she would join in with the 3 of us to form a committee of 4. We will be meeting to discuss what changes will need to be made to switch from a board to a committee. <br />
The meeting was over at 9:30.Mothers of Multiples - Greater Genesee Countyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09831146159398355360noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4950385452118835280.post-56300468056079678972014-04-22T19:07:00.000-07:002014-04-22T19:07:34.906-07:00Spring UpdatesStayed tuned for details for our annual Installation dinner in May!

The March of Dimes walk is just a few weeks away! This year's walk is on Sunday, April 27th. Registration is at 9 am and the walk begins at 10 am. The walk will be held at the Bicentennial Park in Grand Blanc on Grand Blanc Rd. The new path back through the park is a great path for the kids - away from traffic and paved well. There's snacks and prizes along the way for the little ones. The event is always followed by a picnic. If you've never done the walk, let Barb or Lisa know if you have any questions!</div>

Hopefully all of our members received the email or saw the Facebook update but we have changed the night and location for our January meeting. Instead of a formal 'meeting,' we'll be having a Moms Night Out of fun at Sarah's house.<br />
<br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: HelveticaNeue, 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Therefore it will be on Friday, January 17th so that moms who work very early during the week can stay out a little later. It will be held at Sarah') house and it will be a game/craft night. We will have lots of fun board games and card games, and anyone working on a craft is welcome to bring that. Barb has offered to teach us how to finger knit scarves; if that interests anyone just bring along bulky weight yarn or ruffle yarn. Feel free to also bring the adult beverage of your choice and snack to share, and we will get pizza also. Oh, and we may even play some Just Dance on the XBOX for some fun and to burn off some of those extra holiday calories?!</span><br />

<br />
Hopefully you are all staying warm and dry despite the crazy wind and storms that blew threw here this weekend. With that in mind, I'm sure you can all use a little reprieve from your homes and kiddos so come out Thursday night for our November meeting!<br />
<br />
We didn't have a meeting last month (bowling was fun though!) so we'll have lots to talk about this month including holiday plans, new members, the Spring Mom 2 Mom sale, the annual fundraiser and more! We really need everyone's input and involvement to help keep our group the best it can be so we hope lots of you can make it!<br />
<br />
Don't forget to bring an appetizer or dessert to share and bring your own beverage. We'll meet at the church at 7pm on Thursday, November 21.<br />
<br />
See you then!<br />Mothers of Multiples - Greater Genesee Countyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09831146159398355360noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4950385452118835280.post-2185008295048978312013-10-25T20:13:00.002-07:002013-10-25T20:13:50.833-07:00Halloween Party!!The wonderful people of the Community of Christ Church (where we hold our monthly meetings) have offered to once again, host a Halloween party for all of our kiddos!

Meeting Minutes</div>
<div>
General Membership Meeting 9-12-13</div>
<div>
The meeting started around <a href="x-apple-data-detectors://1" x-apple-data-detectors-result="1" x-apple-data-detectors="true">7:35</a>. We talked about membership. Please be sure to get your membership forms in ASAP if you have not already done so and let Debbie know you have so you can be sure to be in the directory. We also discussed the fall sale/swap. There were a few people interested in either buying or selling items. Kerry Bennett said she may be able to arrange something at her house for everyone interested. If you would like to participate, </div>
<div>
contact her to get a date. </div>
<div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="-webkit-composition-fill-color: rgba(130, 98, 83, 0.0898438); -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(26, 26, 26, 0.292969);">The meeting ended about <a href="x-apple-data-detectors://2" x-apple-data-detectors-result="2" x-apple-data-detectors="true">8:15pm</a></span></div>

<div>
Board Meeting 10-4-13</div>
<div>
The meeting started around <a href="x-apple-data-detectors://4" x-apple-data-detectors-result="4" x-apple-data-detectors="true">8pm</a> with Lisa, Barb, Debbie, Denise, Sarah, and Carmen. We discussed membership and went through last years directory and compared it to this years membership forms and talked about this years directory. We then briefly talked about the Halloween party and Holiday party. The church has volunteered to do the Halloween party but we are waiting for them to get back with us with a date. Santa is ready for the holiday party. We are using the same santa we have had the past few years. That will be held <a href="x-apple-data-detectors://5" x-apple-data-detectors-result="5" x-apple-data-detectors="true">on December 19th from 6-8 pm</a>. We decided to try something new this year. We are hoping it will boost participation as attendance has been low at both general meetings as well as moms nights out. We will do meetings at the church the third Thursday every other month. The "off" months we will do a moms night out. We will be starting this the 3rd Thursday in October with bowling. Please look for more info on this to come. This will be great as most of us already have this night set aside and will be able to get together! November we will meet at the church. December is the holiday party. January will be "out", Feburary at the church, March will be "out", April will be at the church, and May will be the installation dinner. Please look for more info on all of these events as they get closer. We talked briefly about shopping in December once again as well as going to Pain<span class="Apple-style-span" style="-webkit-composition-fill-color: rgba(130, 98, 83, 0.0898438); -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(26, 26, 26, 0.292969);">ting with a twist again. We then discussed in great depth Lisa's recent abduction by aliens and the "plug" they have put in behind her ear. And followed that up by talking of the fundraiser. We are looking into possible ideas, perhaps improv. The meeting ended around <a href="x-apple-data-detectors://6" x-apple-data-detectors-result="6" x-apple-data-detectors="true">9:30</a></span></div>

Members present were Lisa, Barb, Debbie, Sarah, and Carmen. <div>
<br /></div>
<div>
We began by talking about the state Mothers of Multiples organization. 23 should all be receiving the next newsletter directly from the state. At this time our group is still not on the states website. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
We discussed the clothes swap that was brought up at the end of last year. An email was sent regarding this to see if there is any interest. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
We then talked about the general meetings. This year we ask that everyone attending a meeting bring a dish of your choice to pass. Also, because we no longer have hostesses everyone will be responsible for their own beverages (ie water, pop, coffee...)</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
We talked about upcoming activities. The church will once again throw the Halloween party. The holiday party will be December 19th from 6-8 pm. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
We briefly talked about the fundraiser. Thought of a few ideas, what's worked in the past and what has not. We will revisit this topic. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
We discussed possible speakers for our general meetings. They included: Love and Logic, fire safety, a math/reading specialist, "tricky people", and meal planning. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
We then scheduled the rest of the board meetings. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
We wrapped up by 10pm.</div>

We had BEAUTIFUL weather and everyone had a great time! The pavilion was right next to a nice playground for the kids and we had our favorite clown, Slow Poke, on hand for the amazing balloon animals and face painting!<br />
<br />
We were excited to meet two new members along with their lil ones! Welcome to the group Jaimi and Kellie!<br />
<br />
Thanks to all those who helped plan, set up or clean up and to everyone for bringing lots of yummy food! We hope everyone had a great time! See you all in September!<br />

A big bunch of us MOMs had a super fun time doing the Ypsilanti Color Run back in May! Quite a few of us went down Friday night, had dinner and some drinks and had a big, fun slumber party then got up and braved the COLD on Saturday to do the run!<br />
<br />
The music, colors, run/walk and company made for a very FUN time! Maybe we can make it a family event next time (or maybe we can keep it as a Moms Night Out again!) :-)<br />

As a group, we've collected and used VGs community Share Points to help earn money. (We often use the money we get back to purchase gift cards to reimburse Moms who make meals for new moms!)</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 17px; margin-top: 10px; white-space: pre-wrap;">

Susie Haney has agreed to collect whatever points anyone has and will turn them in on August 28th. If you have any points (found at the bottom of your VGs receipts), please do the following:</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 17px; margin-top: 10px; white-space: pre-wrap;">
1. Trim your receipts so they are tidy and easy to compile - make sure your receipt shows the Community Share Points amount <span class="emoticon emoticon_smile" style="background-image: url(https://fbstatic-a.akamaihd.net/rsrc.php/v2/yp/r/0z4K_Hr7JrT.png); background-position: 0px -1537px; background-repeat: no-repeat no-repeat; background-size: auto; display: inline-block; height: 16px; vertical-align: top; width: 16px;" title=":-)"></span>
2. Total up how many points you have and include the total on a note with your receipts
3. Mail the receipts and point total to Susie (leave a comment if you need her home address).</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 17px; margin-top: 10px; white-space: pre-wrap;">
Please send them THIS week so they are ready for her to turn in next week.</div>
