Aloha Sisters!
At our December meeting we voted to hold a combined meeting and social since the weekends in January we normally would meet were over holiday weekends...
We met at Judy and Sheila's house, and first things first, we had a pledge ritual for our 2 newest sisters.
After a brief meeting we had a program by Judy and Sheila about setting and achieving New Year's Resolutions. We started by going around and sharing our own resolutions.
We were each given a colorful folder.
Inside each folder was tons of information and useful articles about reaching our new goals, as well as some tools to help us along the way, like a family health chart to fill in and a blank book to use as a food or regular journal.
Our cunning hostesses predicted most of us would include losing weight or getting healthy in our own resolutions and they had prepared a spread of healthy snacks, even demonstrating how to make their favorite smoothie for us all to try!
While we were all enjoying our tasty snacks we had our raffle and the month's birthday girls got presents from their Secret Sisters.
An upcoming birth was celebrated as well with the gift of a quilt and monkeys.
For the social part of the afternoon, we played a highly entertaining and educational game.
Earlier in the day each Sister listed two things about themselves that they thought no one else knew. These were read aloud and we all had great fun trying to guess which Sister wrote each thing. What a diverse group of Sisters we have! There are models, coffee addicts, figure skaters, telephone operators, singers, jailbirds, dog lovers, puzzle solvers and even someone raised on an egg farm!
This was quite a delightful and fun way to learn about our Sisters and many great stories were told!
We are looking forward to seeing each other again, next month! Aloha!
