ola!

the idea of giving me access to the blog was to get the menu worked out more than a day ahead of time. well my bad! i blame my sick kid.

lo siento.

the theme is mexican tomorrow...if you are fasting, obviously don't feel like you should bring anything!

comment and post what you'll bring, so others don't bring the same...monica and ray said they'd take care of drinks.

looking foward to seeing everyone tomorrow!

Happy New Year

Hey, life group family. Here is an outline for the next few months of what we will be studying. We hope God uses this book to open our eyes and change our hearts. It's bold and sometimes overwhelming, and we might not agree with everything completely, but overall it is mighty awesome. Please read the chapters ahead of group for discussion. We will have groups at Ray and Monica's house unless we decide otherwise and we can discuss food when we meet each week. So excited!

Hope everyone had a good thanksgiving celebrating with your families! We are looking forward to our upcoming ugly Christmas sweater party...hope everyone is looking hard for some ugliness!!
Tomorrow night we are having a guy/girl split night. Guys will meet at the Schilbs house at 6:30 like normal. Jill is making a spaghetti bake for the guys. Girls will meet at the Wheelocks house at 6:30 for some Christmas cookie baking. I'm going to go to Sam's tomorrow afternoon for supplies, so if there is a recipe you want to make, post it so I can get the ingredients for it! I'm going to make a spaghetti bake too (it was a good idea, Jill!!), but if anyone wants to bring a salad or some veggies, that would be great!
Directions to the Wheelocks house:
Coming from Bella Vista: Take exit 88. It is the highway 72 exit. Go west on highway 72 for about one mile. Central will be on the left hand side. Take a left on Central, and then a right on Paradise Way. We are on the left hand side. We are 205 Paradise Way!
Coming from Centerton: Take 102 east until you reach Moberly. Turn left on Moberly. Go past the David Glass building. Take a right on 5th street, it will be right after the David Glass building. Take a left at the first stop sign, it is Paradise Way. We are at the end of the street on the right hand side. We are 205 Paradise Way. If anyone has questions, my number is 238-5910.
See you guys tomorrow!!

Upcoming Events!!!

Hi everyone! Hope you all had a good weekend and are excited about this upcoming holiday week!! I know I am excited to only have to work two and a half days!
I know that we said tomorrow night was going to be our off night, but the Schilbs are inviting everyone over for a super fun pizza and game night!! I'm sad to say that we can't make it, but for anybody that can, post that you will be there so they can know how much pizza to order. If you could bring a couple of bucks to cover pizza, that would be much appreciated!
Mark your calendars for Saturday, December 6th! James and I are excited to have everyone over for a very ugly Christmas sweater party! If you don't have an ugly sweater, borrow one or knit one before then...Party time starts at 6 pm. If you need directions, let us know, but I think most everyone has been to our place before!
Hope you guys have fun tomorrow! I'll be jealous of you all eating pizza and having fun while I have to work :( Have a fun Thanksgiving and safe travels to everyone!
Steph

November 18th

Hi all! Sorry to post late again...this past week has been a quick one! Hopefully you all had a good weekend and are ready for this new week. We will be back at the Schilbs tomorrow night for chili night! I will be making the chili and Jill is going to make some baked potatoes. If anyone wants to bring stuff for a chili/potato bar (sour cream, cheese, fritos, etc...) that would be awesome! Drinks and desserts are always welcome too :)
We will be playing what I hope to be a really fun game...It will go over some of the stuff we have been talking about the last couple of months, as well as determine how well you know your spouse....!! It should be a really good time!
Look forward to seeing you all tomorrow night!!

Hi all! Hope you all had a good weekend and are ready for this upcoming week! We are looking forward to meeting again this Tuesday. It seems like it has been awhile since we last met! We will be making sub sandwiches, so if everyone could pitch in and bring some sandwich fixings, that would be great! I will be bringing my favorite dessert, pumpkin crisp!! See you all on Tuesday!
