MFABS: Curley Moms’ Night Out
7:30pm – 10:30pm
Bella Luna/Milky Way
MFABS is back for 2011! Join us at Bella Luna/Milky Way(http://www.milkywayjp.com/) at 7:30 pm on Monday, January 24 2011 for a casual evening of beverages and mamaship. Arrive whenever you can(it’s a “soft” start-time), and leave whenever you need to. And get your trivia muscle warmed up: January’s MFABS will coincide with BellaLuna’s weekly Stump Trivia night. The game begins at 8:00, so if you want to sit and play, try to arrive as close to this time as you can. It does get crowded. (If you don’t want to play trivia, that’s fine, too!)
Our monthly MFABS get-togethers are a chance for mamas in the Curley K-8 community – and beyond – to get together for a drink and a chat. It’s just for fun; there are no kids, dads, or agendas other than to relax, share, vent, and otherwise take a load off our far-too-busy minds and souls. If you’re part of a two-mama household, may we suggest 1) a sitter, or 2) rock/paper/scissors. Please share this invite with any moms who might enjoy a night out!
