December Meeting, 12-15-13

Karen M. hosted our December meeting which was on Sunday afternoon at 2:00. We enjoyed a wonderful lunch. Karen provided the main dishes and drinks and our members brought appetizers, side dishes and desserts. Karen set a lovely holiday table. We had a wonderful meal and then selected books for 2014. We decided against our ornament exchange this year and instead we donated books to Christ's Haven for Children in Keller. I think we will continue this next year as it seemed very popular with our members. Unfortunately I forgot to take any pictures so these will have to do for now. If anyone took pictures please send them to me and I will replace these.

November 2013 Meeting

Our November meeting was at Linda's house. We had the possibility of sleet and icy weather but there was a good turn out. Angie's mother joined us to discuss the book Light Between the Oceans. We had a great discussion about what the couple should have done and the consequences that followed the decision to keep the baby. We dodged the bad weather and had no problems getting home.
We also discussed our December meeting and we decided to bring a children's book to the meeting instead of exchanging ornaments. We will meet at Karen M.'s house on Dec. 15th at 2:00.
