Volunteering POSTPONED!

For those of you that were planning on attending the training session this Saturday, the Infant Crisis Center will be closed.

We will reschedule and we would love to have input from you on what day is most convenient. E-mail Callie with any questions, comments or concerns at calliedot@gmail.com.

Spa Party RESCHEDULED!!!

There will be no spa party tonight due to weather.

Better safe than sorry! We are rescheduling for next Wednesday, February 3rd, from 6:30-8:30pm. Expect to experience door prizes, great music, great food, great wine, and lots of girlie pampering! We'll also have some great ideas for Valentine's Day gifts for moms and girlfriends. Again, 25% of whatever is bought will go directly to the Infant Crisis Center. For more info on the center go to http://www.infantcrisis.org/. And of course, buying is not required nor expected! The main thing is we all have a great time and leave re-energized!

The Spa Party will still be at Stacy Dunn's house:

3805 NW 58th St.

OKC, OK 73112

Call for directions: 785.817.9095 - If you have any questions feel free to contact her.

Volunteers needed!

OKDHS has a child in Children's Hospital and the doctor has asked for "round the clock" supervision. He is 7 weeks old and has 15 bone fractures. We need volunteers to take 3 hour (or longer) shifts throughout the weekend. The worker has been staying overnight with the baby, but if any volunteers are willing to do that- the worker would really appreciate a night off. She said that the baby is in a lot of pain so he wakes up and cries a lot. We need to coordinate immediately the times people can help so DHS workers can plan on being there any other times. Child: Baby Justin R.. Age: 7 weeks Worker info: Michelle Martin: 248-8347; Cindy Bryson (sup): 590-0745 IMPORTANT: You must be a qualified DHS volunteer or a current resource (foster) family and in good health. Please contact the worker above or amber.brune@cox.net for more information.

Spa Party

If you're anything like me, this winter air and constantly changing weather does a number on your skin! If you're feeling flaky, pasty, or just plain ready for some pampering, come to our spa party. Our own super Stacy Dunn is now a beauty consultant for Mary Kay. She's learned all the tricks and tips to a more beautiful you and she's gonna share them with us at the party. All the products we try will be available for purchase that night AND Stacy has generously agreed to donate 25% of the total sales from that night to the Infant Crisis Center, the charity we are supporting this year. The Details: Thursday Jan 28th at 6:30 pm Stacy Dunn's house: 3805 NW 58th St, Oklahoma City, OK 73112 Her phone number: 785.817.9095 Please RSVP to medicalspousealliance@yahoo.com And, if you want to get a head start browsing through Stacy's collection, check out her website at marykay.com/stacydunn! PS - purchasing stuff is NOT required, just an option. We'd love to see you, so even if you want to just hang out with the girls, please come!

party pictures

The Couple's party was awesome! Fun was had by all...I am thinking this is definitely something we should do again. We played CatchPhrase, visited, and had SO much good food! I am telling you, these women can cook (and those who don't still bring some really good food!)

And just look at all these cute little couples! Enjoy the pics!!!

I am so glad that so many people were able to come. If you missed it, you'll have to make it next time!

Couples Party

Friday, Jan 15th @ 7pm

Let's get together, along with our guys, and celebrate the start of a new semester, before they get too busy!

Jessica Hopkins has graciously offered her house (which, a litte bird told me, has both foos ball AND air hockey tables!) for the revelry - bring an appetizer/snack to pass, as well as your own booze, if you plan to drink. She will have non-alcoholic beverages on hand. ALSO, if you have a favorite party game that's fun for a large group, bring that!

Her address is:

8912 S. Youngs Blvd. OKC, OK 73159

And her phone number is:

405.812.2008 - if you have any questions or need directions.

Movie Night!

Tuesday, Jan 12th @ 7pm

We've decided "to heck with a book club - let's just watch movies!" and this is our inaugural meeting. Each month, we will gather at one of our members' homes, watch a movie of their choice and have a fun, low key girls night in - sound good?

This month, we're meeting at Logan Hightower's house. RSVP to her at ldhightower@hotmail.com for her address and gate code. Bring your favorite movie snack to share and dress comfy!

Happy New Year!

Hope you all had a wonderful holiday season (whether you got a break or not!) So, we are back and kickin with all kinds of fun events coming up! But for now, enjoy these pictures from our Christmas baking party.
