We had so much fun at a member’s home this morning! The kids played together while the moms worked on a Make and Take Essential Oils craft led by another member. The recipients are going to love these homemade Christmas gifts: Candy Cane Lip Scrub, Bath Salt Ornaments, and Merry & Bright Holiday Room Spray. We are grateful for our mom village to help us pull of these club events!

We had a great play date at a member’s home this afternoon! This month’s play date theme was clay. We read Play with Clay by Jenny Pinkerton, and then used playdough – both store-bought and homemade – to explore various textures and scents.

Thanks to all the moms and kids who joined us for our annual Harvest Party this afternoon! We loved seeing all the creative costumes. Several moms brought potluck food to share, the kids read a book and worked on a Halloween-themed craft, and there was even some trick-or-treating.

It’s the perfect time of year for a farm tour! We started with coloring in the barn and meeting the barn cats. Then we headed out to meet the alpaca herd. Did you know the only time alpacas spit is when they are pregnant?

Next we met the chickens and fed them grain and meal worms, which are like candy to them. The children collected eggs in the chicken coop, picked and ate fresh apples, and then meandered around the pumpkin patch, where they all got to pick little white pumpkins. We explored the garden, did a little harvesting, and ate fresh Thai basil, lemongrass, ground cherries (which taste like pineapple), a variety of small tomatoes, lemon cucumbers, raspberries, and grapes.

At the end of the tour, we tried out a teleidoscope and looked at squash and gourds. It was fantastic adventure for the club! Many thanks to Apple Creek Farm for taking the time to host our group.

Many thanks to the firefighters at Bismarck Fire Station #4 for taking time out of their morning to give us a tour and equipment demonstration! The kids had a blast! We appreciate all you do to keep the community safe.

We are so excited for Heather, her husband Tyler, and their family as they await the arrival of identical triplets! The odds of a pregnancy like hers are at least one in 100,000, and so far she’s doing well. The local news stopped by to chat with her at one of her recent doctor appointments.
