Moms night out!

What a fabulous time, with a fabulous group of ladies! Momstown Newmarket-Aurora went to the Keg in Newmarket for some unwinding time and meeting new friends. The night FLEW by as we chatted and shared stories and {Sega} and eyed our cute waiter- he must have been in heaven...or was that us , ladies?

We had such a great time at our speed meet, that we decided it would be a great monthly event - so....voila, I stuck it on the calendar tonight.

We are having SO much fun here at Momstown- why haven't you joined yet?

Until next time,

Hop Hop Hop!!




















Easter is here , and so was our First Annual Aurora-Newmarket Momstown Easter Egg Hunt! What a success it was! Special thanks to 'darlenemarie' for helping me set up...and for my beloved morning coffee !

The kids and parents alike had a great time, lots of eggs were found, and they made some cute little Easter Bunny bags as well! Faces were painted, friends were made and treats were shared. We had a beatiful sunny day at the park , a little wind tried blowing our crafts away- but our bunnies were too quick to let it win! The Bubbles were flying and laughter could be heard for blocks. I can't wait to have more exciting events such as this, and meet tons of new friends!

Mark your calendars for April 19th : Launch Party at the Magna Centre AND May 6th- Momstown Mania! It's going to be wild!

Until next time...

Learning about maple syrup

Photobucket

It's Maple Syrup time!




Maple Syrup is the official marker of Spring in my eyes- woodland walks , bonfires and maple sugar treats- we truly are Canadian!


Today we had our first ever Momstown Newmarket-Aurora event, at Bruce's Mill in Stoufville. We participated in a nature walk where we learned all about how they used to make maple syrup in the pioneer days, we saw some animals in the petting zoo- man were they smelly!!! Mason and Logan splashed in some puddles, and we ate some super sweet treats from the sugar shack.


What a great start to our wonderful events, and a great start to spring!


Hope to see you out at our next event!!


Until next time,

It's here and the paper work is FLYING!

Well- we're officially up and running, Newmarket & Aurora! Thank you for being so patient with us, and we hope you're pleased with all that you see so far! It's only going to get better and more exciting as time goes on and membership grows- so get your friends on board!

My toddler has been helping me sort out membership cards and envelopes...and we've had to re-write one or two in the process {ha..ha} but he's going to help me get them in the mail pronto- so they should be arriving in your mailbox next week sometime! Mason is very excited to make a trip to the mail box and actually put mail IN as opposed to taking it out.

Julie and I are getting all the details sorted, with great plans and venues to keep you all busy all week long if you so choose! We can't wait to get to know you, and we hope you have a GREAT time at all of our events and on our message boards- can't wait to see what you have to say!

Until next time...
