Carseat Mommies

This is a special note from Sister Fisher:

...(a friend called about...) a special class which the Santa Fe RS is sponsoring at the stake center tomorrow (May 5th) afternoon at 5:30. It's for new mothers or expectant mothers about car seats and how to install them and how to use them properly. She said that if you take the class, they will give you a FREE car seat.

Hoping that they are meeting there - but just by way of information - Santa Fe ward meets at the Stake Center.
Please email if you have questions.

Summer Movie Fun


The only news that will help you to forget the scorching AZ heat is coming is the notion that it also brings Summer Movie Fun.

Summer Movie Fun is a program that is offered by Harkins Theaters.

During the summer, Harkins theaters will show a series of movies. The titles are generally chosen for kids.

The movies start at 9:45 a.m. each weekday.

You can buy a package of tickets, but you must choose which day of the week that you prefer to attend in advance. The tickets cost $7 for the full ten movie series or $2 at the door on the day of the show.

By pre-paying for the full Summer season, the cost for each movie ticket is 70 cents!

There are no age limitations!, except that for security reasons, all adults must be accompanied by at least one child.

a few things to note:
*this is an excellent way to get kids out of the heat, if even for just a few hours!
*Moms are in attendance with kids of all ages, so it is informally understood - that this is not a "hushed" theater experience!
*tickets go on sale this Friday!

**PLEASE PARTICIPATE IN THE POLL!
obviously the theater at 83rd & Bell is close, but it can be extremely crowded every day of the week.
The theater at 101 & Northern is farther away, but is said to be less crowded.

By a slim margin - Wednesday wins it again!
This was the breakdown: Mon: 2 votes, Tues: 3 votes, Wed: 5 votes, Thurs. and Fri: each 4 votes.
Feel free to purchase tickets for any day that you wish, but know that you will spot more Sisters that you know on Wednesday.

Don't forget to vote!

P.S. - If you are a Sister that wants to attend, but does not have a child to bring with you - I bet I know a Sister or two that will let you borrow one of theirs!!

May Book Club Selection


Hi Sisters,

We have chosen this book for our May book club meeting.
I will let you know the date and place that we will hold the meeting.
As always, there will be treats, and a lot of laughs!

Please remember - you do not have to finish the book (you barely need to read it), nor do you need to be a "book club regular". You can join us any time!

If you have a copy of this book that you can share with another Sister, or you need a copy... please let Nicole know.

See you there!
