Get to know your Steering Team: meet Ansley!

My full name is Ansley Campbell Holcombe.

I'm on the MOPS Outreach team. 

I have one child -- Addison Elizabeth (4).  

I'm originally from Maryland.

To relax, I enjoy shopping, cooking, reading and checking Facebook & Pinterest.

If I could order from anywhere tonight instead of making dinner, I'd choose Maggiano's.
If I could do anything & get paid for it, I'd work for a make-up company... & get to try all the new products.

I like sweet snacks!

My favorite movies are Annie, Goonies & any girly movie. 

If my family had a soundtrack, it would be Crazy Train. Or maybe On The Road Again.

If I had an extra room in my house, it would be a craft room... love sewing, scrapbooking & art!

My favorite thing about MOPS is the camaraderie & friendships I have made with all different groups of women.
Love you guys! 

Get to know your Steering Team: meet Alisha!

My full name is Alisha Barrett Martin.

I'm on the MOPS Hospitality Team.

I have seven children -- Ryvers (9), Ridge (6), Birch & Bramble (3), Adler (2), and Beck & Juniper (3 months). 

I'm originally from Easley, SC.

To relax, I like hiking, camping & fishing.

If I could order from anywhere tonight instead of making dinner, I'd choose Olive Garden. Dude, their portobello ravioli is sexual.

If I could do anything & get paid for it, I'd travel to remote & exotic places.

I like salty & sweet... anything dark chocolate & a bag of chips.

One of my favorite books is The Good Earth. And on the other end of the spectrum, one of my favorite movies is Dumb & Dumber. 

If my family had a soundtrack, it would be The Verve Pipe --
When One Became Two.
If I had an extra room in my house, I'd use it for a bedroom! Dividing seven kids between two small rooms is not cool.

My favorite thing about MOPS is the awesome ladies. Seriously, some really cool chicks come to MOPS & I love them to pieces.

Get to know your Steering Team: meet Margaret!

My full name is Margaret O'Driscoll Berry.

I'm the MOPS Coordinator. 

I have two children -- Caleb (4) and Cooper (2). 

I'm originally from North Augusta, SC.

To relax, I like photography, soccer, & baking. I guess I'm a little weird in that I like cleaning my house & yard work... it's not relaxing, but I find it satisfying. 

If I could order from anywhere tonight instead of making dinner, I'd choose Olive Garden. 

If I could do anything & get paid for it, I'd bake.

I like salty & sweet. Anything with chocolate, chips & dip, peanut butter, popcorn...

Favorite recently read books are The Hunger Games.

If my family had a soundtrack, it would be the theme song for Ringling Brothers Circus. 

If I had an extra room in my house, I'd use it for a dedicated playroom for all the toys to live in.

My favorite thing about MOPS is being reminded that I'm not alone in my daily struggles! 

new to mops?
