Swim time

I have a really nice heated pool that is actually warm. I thought it'd be fun this month for everyone to come swimming at my place. Email me at aubsrey@gmail.com for further questions and directions. It will be April 17 @ 10:30 AM.

Hello to the long lost Dental Wives Club!!




Come join fellow dental wives for a Valentine's Day Craft at Aubrey Pettit's home on Friday, February 6th at 10:30 am. If you know of anyone who'd like to come but doesn't check the blog, please pass the info along! We're making little felt fortune cookies with personalized messages. Check out the picture below. Aubrey is kindly covering the cost of the craft, so don't worry about bringing money. Also, if you'd like to snack while we socialize, bring something to share. RSVP Aubrey at aubsrey@gmail.com. Hope to see you there!

Revamp the Wives Club!

So I really want to get together more often and on a regular basis. One of my friend's husband is in medical school back east and the wives get together a lot!! They have such fun ideas like auctions, craft night, cooking club, etc. Everyone is so talented and I know there is tons of things we could get together and do. So... to start out slow, I thought we could assign two days a month. One in the night for the wives that work and then one during the day for kid-friendly/stay-at-home during the day stuff (everyone is welcome to both of course!) I don't know if everyone is available for October so let me know what day/night of the week works best for you and what you would be interested in doing. This really will be so fun so let's get it started!

Here are a few of my ideas for adult activities:
-scrapbook night (bring a project you are working on and a treat!)
-card exchange (everyone makes x amount of cards and then everyone trades and you walk away with tons of new cards!)
-craft night (it would be fun to make a holiday craft together. I could show the example, everyone could sign up if they want to make it, I could buy the stuff, and then we can get together and make them.)
-recipe exchange (maybe again?)
-Auction night (Everyone brings a service/item they could auction off and then we all get a certain amount of little candies to bid on things.)
-movie night
-dessert or dinner night

Kid-friendly activities:
-Bounce U
-Lied Children's Museum
-Bellagio gardens and water fountains
-picnic and park
-swimming
-kid crafts
-Chuck E Cheese's or Peter Piper Pizza

So, please leave me a comment and let me know what you would be interested in and what day/night works best for you.

To get it started, I would prefer Monday or Friday days and Wednesday or Thursday nights.

For Twilight Fans!

As you Twilight fans may know, the movie is coming out on November 21st (which is a Friday). Me and some friends are getting together for dinner and then we're all going to the movie afterwards. It will be in North Las Vegas though so I'm not sure if that's convenient for everyone. I just thought I'd let you know... it's a great excuse to have a girls night out. Just let me know if you're interested. I don't have all the details yet because it is still a few months away but just a heads-up! Thanks, Mandy
P.S. Has anyone read Breaking Dawn yet? I just finished it and it was great! A friend of mine is having a book club on it next week so you're all welcome to come join us for that!

FYI

So I'm not sure how many people still read this blog but I just wanted to let everyone know that I started a little photography business. If you know anyone that is pregnant, just had a baby, or just wants some updated family pictures send them my way! My photography blog address is www.raquelwilburphotography.blogspot.com Thanks!!

BBQ update

I have talked to a few people who will be out of town on Saturday so we decided to change the BBQ to Thursday. Same time same place! Hope that works for everyone!!!! See ya in a few days!

BBQ saturday!

We thought it would be fun to have a BBQ and do one last thing before school starts up. There is a really fun butterfly park up in the north west area of Las Vegas. It is on Buffalo and Elkhorn, at the Centennial Hills Park. We thought we could do it this Saturday May 10 around 4:30 or 5:00. They have a fun play ground area with slides and water, a covered BBQ area and sand volley ball. If everyone could bring their own meat and either a salad or desert that would be great! Hopefully everyone is back in town this weekend and can come. We haven't done anything for a while and it would be fun to all get together with our husbands and families!! If you could leave a comment on this blog if you are able to come and what you are going to bring so we don't have too much of one thing! Hope everyone has had a good break and can make it this weekend!!!
