Last week we had our final Mama Meet of 2016 at Olive Loves Alfie East. It was a real festive affair with Christmas tunes, a portable prosecco bar made from the vintage silver cross pram, Christmas shopping, chalking for the kids, mince pies and homemade gingerbread men. Plus we got the old tinsel halos, disco balls and deeply boppers out for laughs as our resident photographer Katrina Campbell took pics of everyone. We had some old and new mamas and their littles pop in to catch up on whats been a great year, chat and new friendships made. Thanks to Olive Loves Alfie for being such good friends and letting us host these meet ups at your fabulous store! Heres to an exciting 2017....where our mama meets are now going to be known as Ola Mama!
Here are just some of our favourite pictures from the day....
To all the beautiful babies, toddlers and mamas that have come this year - you have been inspiring, insightful and fun to hang out with, thanks for coming along and really creating a fabulous new community! We are planning a new season of mama meets and also some supper clubs so watch this space!
If you are yet to pay a visit to the East Village or one of our mama meets we would love to see you in 2017. Just a few events on the cards include... talk with a sleep consultant, nutrition and food weaning, mama health and confidence, more mum fashion and finding work life balance as a mum.
A massive thank you to Pip Organic Juices for generously providing the kids with drinks for the day! They were yummy and went down pretty well....really recommend these award winning juices for your little ones. We also had some mince pies and homemade gingerbread men (thanks Finn!) lovingly decorated, I think he ate half the plate himself!
As usual the kids loved playing in the cardboard playhouse and there was plenty of festive chalking and running around to keep the kids entertained.
Violet's had a blast this year, growing up and stepping out at these mama meets... Merry Christmas everyone!! x
