Virginia Week 1

Well it has been one full week since the mohrs have been in our new home at Tall Pines Harbor Campground.  So far we have had a lot of fun with the different activities that the campgrounds puts on from music and dancing,  carnivals,  and of course the swimming pool and the beach.  
Heather has had a good start to her new job and the drive is not bad at all from the campground.  She is home by 3:00 which is great for us to have family time with her everyday.  I think the kids have adjusted well to having me at home instead of there mother even though the are super thrilled when she gets home (so I am still number two :)).
Some of the exciting things we have done so far are swimming at the bay beach here, pool, dancing at the music activities,  and most importantly seeing the ocean and swimming at the ocean.   Brayson and Brody liked getting buried in the sand and Bridget loved making her own bed in the sand and of course Brynn wanted to go out and swim with the big waves which washed us both back up on the beach.  That was a great day for the kids for sure.
We still are planning on trips to D.C., Virginia Beach,  Jamestown,  and any other places we can get to on the weekends.  I will keep you up to date as we take these new adventures.
I will leave you with the last item that we have dealt with and that is the weather. The crazy thing is that they believe that they are in a heatwave here and the high is 91 for the week., there storms are severe with 35mph winds and some lightning,  and the humidity is not as bad as one would think.  I mean I can sweat just thinking about sweating and I have our A/C unit set at 80 - 82 and that would never happen in Kansas.  Now I would imagine a hurricane is something that I would not want to be around for.
Its been a blast so fsr anf hope to have many more memorable experiences to tell everyone about.
The Mohrs.

Enrollement Day 1

Day 1 of enrollment went good.  It is great to see our students and parents again.  I would like to remind all athletes that this year, you will have to have a physical on file as we as a concussion form on file, before you are allowed to practice.  This is a new state rule to have the concussion form, so do not over look PLEASE!!!!!! 

Practice will begin August 15th for all fall sports.

Visit our website http://www.usd357.org/ for a link to both physical and concussion forms.  Also, if you have not been to the new website, you must check it out.  A new look for the 2011-12 school year that will make everyone happy.  Look forward to seeing everyone on the 18th!

Back to school

August 1st, I head back to school.  Wondering where the summer went, up in heat, I guess.  I am looking forward to getting back into the swing of things and getting the 2011-12 school year underway.  There are some good things coming this year.

Snow day #2

Snow day #2 will be much better than todays.  I will sleep in and my kids will not make me want to stand outside in the snow without a coat.  I know that the idea of snow days is a good thing but sometimes when you have 4 kids locked in a house, you run out of things to do in a hurry.  A house is only so big and there are only so many things that you can do inside, haha.

By the way, our games scheduled for today have been rescheduled for February 10th.  Everything stays the same, home game and everything starts at 4:30pm with JV basketball.  Make plans to be there.  This may be the shortest homecoming week in history!!!!

Snow Days

So our school cancelled today because of this huge snow storm rolling thru the midwest.  It is sooo cold today that me and the kids can't enjoy the snow that is coming down.  I wonder if school will be cancelled tomorrow because of the snow and wind chill out there?  What are some things that you can do when you have a snow day, locked in your house with 4 kids?

Thank goodness for the Wii and its ability to purchase new games or you can even use netflix and watch TV shows or movies!  How technology is sooooo cool, really you dont even need to leave your house.  As long as you have food and family and the electric is working, then you can do anything you want right from the comfort of your living room.  How I do love the 21st Century!!!!!
