We had a great night out for the moms last night at The Bra Lounge! We sipped wine, munched on some yummy treats, visited with friends - and did some shopping!
Sheena and Cortney really know their stuff! We learned that bra sizes do indeed rise above the traditional range of DD - and that this is in fact NORMAL and doesn't mean that you are some kind of mammoth creature. They took the time with each of us to find the bra that was just right - and suited our individual needs and taste.
I loved the experience (its so refreshing to see what TRUE customer service looks like!) and will definitely be back! I was too busy having fun to remember to take pictures, so you'll have to remember to use your imaginations!!

A (Fun!) Trip to the Dentist
Despite the cold weather we had an excellent turn out for our Dental Happy Visit
at Dr. McCue's Office with our very own Robin last week!
We started off with an information session. The mamas learned about how to brush their child's teeth, how to floss properly and the importance of flossing baby teeth. We also learned about the purpose of baby teeth.
All the kids got a ride in the dental chair - what a treat! Some loved it so much they went for a second ride! The older kids got to learn about all of the different dental tools as well. Each child received a goody bag to take home with them.
Join us for future great events just like this - we're more than just a playgroup (but we're that too)!!

Girl Power!
We had our monthly meeting of our Get Fit Club today, and I left feeling so inspired by this strong, amazing group of women that I have become a part of! We meet once a month to workout together, once a month to discuss our successes and failures and in the mean time we support each other and talk about how our goals are coming on our message board.
This is not a competition (although we do challenge each other), its not a weight loss group (although that is a goal for some) and its not a whine & moan session (although that happens too - and its okay, because we're all going through the same things). Its a group of women coming together to support each other in our own personal goals (whatever those might be) - and we have some amazing built in professional help since one of our members is Jo from Jo Dumont Fitness Training!
What struck me today, was the sheer power in the room when women come together with a common goal - to make our lives, and our families lives healthier. We talked about what our successes, failures and challenges had been over the last month, what we wanted our goals to be over the coming month, and how we are going to make them happen. We made suggestions for each other on how we can jump the hurdles we face, and yes, we complained a bit about our kids, husbands and lives as supermoms. I left with the feeling that "I can do this! I can make changes in my life that will lead me to be healthier and teach my children how to lead healthy lives!" I think its amazing - I mean people pay big bucks to be involved in weight loss support groups, and here we have built our own little group of amazing women - and I think we are so much better!
You're invited to join us next month - or any month. If you're not a member yet, sign up for your free trial membership - free participation in The Get Fit Club is only one of the many benefits you'll enjoy as a member!

Discover the True Meaning of Christmas
Join Kelly Tibbets of Professional Mortgage Planners, Candy Faces, momstown Central Alberta & Parkland Mall
in our quest to teach our little ones all about the true meaning of
Christmas.
In lieu of a gift exchange with their friends - the kids can bring a gift for a child in need to be donated to the Christmas Bureau and a donation to the Food Bank and learn that giving to others can truly be as satisfying as receiving. The kids will then have a chance to have their faces painted, have story time with Mrs. Claus and of course have a visit with Santa Claus. Each child will receive a gift bag to take home and mom will have the chance to enter in some great door prize draws from our sponsors:
The Christmas Bureau has the greatest need for toys for kids aged 10 -
16. The Food Bank has requested canned fruit, canned meat, rice &
pasta. Drop boxes will be on hand for both organizations.
