High Hopes

*Reminder*
The first meet up is on December 8, 10AM at the park on Sugar Lakes Dr. by the clubhouse!


When I originally got the idea to start this meet up group I just wanted to meet other moms in the neighborhood. When I really began thinking about it I started having all kinds of lofty ideas. As a larger group we could bring a lot of great things right into our neighborhood. There are benefits to working in numbers and Sugar Lakes has great facilities waiting to be used!

To name a couple ideas...
A private swim instructor who teaches survival swim classes in private pools
A CPR and other classes for parents (or kids!)
Compiling a list of reliable, mom approved, neighborhood babysitters
Trick or Treating safely with neighbors you know

I am sure you could think of a few as well.

If in the end I just meet a few of you I think it will be worth the effort!

Please join our group on Facebook!

Introduction


My name is Wendy. My husband, Luke, and I moved into Sugar Lakes about 4 and a half years ago right after we got married. Since then we have had 2 children. We have a son who is 2 and another son who is 5 months.
We moved from Houston, where most of our friends still live, and have never really met anyone in our community.  While at a friend's house for a party, I noticed how well she knew her neighbors after living there only a short time. They all had children ranging in age. I thought it was really nice that they had such a great community. I have often wondered about our neighbors but have not really made an effort to meet anyone. Now that we have established a life out here I would love to get to know some you.
I have such wonderful "mom" support with my friends. We often call each other for sick, hurt or fussy kid advice, recommendations for anything from babysitters to preschools or just for a play date. It would be nice to get to know the kids that my kids will be going to school and playing sports with, and just to have that support network closer to home.
I would like to set up a meet up at the park (or pool during the summer) one Saturday a month. No pressure or obligation because I know we are all busy, just if you can.

If you would like to join us and meet other parents and kids in the neighborhood I am planning the first meet up at the playground on Sugar Lakes Drive by the club house on Saturday, December 8, 2012 at 10:00AM.
