Book Club Activity

Because of the inclement weather today, we will not be going to Memory Grove. We will still meet at Angela's and we will get some dinner and play games there. If there is enough interest, we may go to the tabernacle for the acapella group performance. Otherwise we will hang out and have a grand time at Angela's. See you there at 6:30 pm!

Memory Grove THIS Friday, June 11

Time: 6:15-6:30 PM (We will be leaving Angela's house at 6:30.)
Place: Memory Grove, Brigham Young Park(optional), Angela's House for games (optional)
What: We're planning on stopping at a Subway to pick up sandwiches and then we'll go to Memory Grove to eat them and walk around. If there is interest and time, there is a free concert at the Brigham Young Park from 8-9 PM. It is an a capella group called, The Cadillacs. They sing classic, fun rock-and-roll music from the 50's and 60's. And THEN, those who are interested are welcome to come back to Angela's house for games (it's the Father and Son camp out, so Emma & I will have the house to ourselves--no curfew! :) not that there ever is at my house!).

Fun at Mindy's

We all had a great time at Mindy's new home. Thanks Mindy for hosting and thanks to everyone who came. We enjoyed some great discussions. We also had a lot of books to discuss too. There were many to choose from but the one we chose for July is:

Meet at 6:00 at Annette's for carpooling.
