scoobys adventure

The Culprits in the pond
Well we knew one day it would happen just didn't know when, scooby found the nearby pond. Yesterday when I went to go look for him I could not find him and I knew Eric would be very upset if i didn't. So I got in the truck and as soon as I turned to corner there he was playing. I guess he was tempted by the ducks flying by and had to chase them. He did get in trouble but didn't learn his lesson since we had to go look for him the next morning before Eric would go to school.
Also notice in the picture jay made a small fence for abbi to stay in while outside but she can now jump it so we will have to get a fence very soon for my own sanity and theres.

jordans performance

Jordan had her first performance at school this past thursday where she had to say a few lines. They were learning about Egypt before she got there so she only had a week to learn it and she did very well.

week in review

hello friends and family
Well to say its been cold here is an understatement, at least to me it is too cold. I haven't got use to the 20 degree temperatures here much less the 30's but it could be worse, we haven't went through tornado season. From what I hear we do not hear the sirens from where we live and the satelite tv gets knocked out so hopefully a nice neighbor will get word from someone in OKC and they will forward it on hahahaha no we do have a emergency radio that we will keep on during that time.
The kids have started school and jordan had her first grade perfomance on Thursday Jan 15th and she did very good. They have really nice teachers and have each made some friends..The schools here were alittle ahead but they are catching up very well. I take the kids to/from school since they don't want to be on the bus for 45 mins its really close to the house plus their hours are 845 to 345. Great for jordan but eric wants to get there early.

HAPPY NEW YEAR

well i hope everyone had a great new years eve, we had a good time as well. The kids popped all the fireworks and of course the dogs went crazy..for some reason they like the taste of fireworks. The next day they played with the boxes and rode on the scooters. They had to chase abbi a few times once she gets outside there is no stopping her and there is alot of room to run so it makes it harder. We are getting a fence soon just getting qoutes and seeing which the association will let us have. We later enjoyed the Fried Turkey, cabbage and peas...

Turner Falls, Oklahoma

We stopped at the scenic view to see Turner Falls over Christmas break. Jay and I had went there when we lived in Oklahoma 12 years ago and wanted to see it again. Jay told the kids how I dropped my camera in the falls and they ask if its still there, its not but the camera doesn't work anymore...Anyways enjoy the pics.
Love The Reimers

life in oklahoma

Well the kids did like the house and location we picked so we did good. Well we have been here for 2 weeks now and have met a few of the neighbors. The principal of the kids school lives across the street and she seems nice. School starts at 8:45 and the kids liked that also they will go on Tuesday. I have learned my way around alittle better especially since jay got me a GPS for christmas i have used it alot the kids are happy since i haven't gotten lost as much and they now they say "recalculating" if i miss my turn. The house is starting to get cleared out of boxes and we will be working on it alot the rest of this break. The kids and dogs have enjoyed the big backyard scooby stays in the garage mostly but he does venture around since he likes it outside except for the cold nights.

Oklahoma/other updates

Well its here the day I have been dreading...We are heading to Oklahoma on wednesday and the kids will get to see there new house for the first time..I hope they like it..Eric is being a trooper but Jordan was upset today I am hoping Abbi will help..I am going to miss all my great friends in Tyler but its only a 5 hours drive and I will be back especially over the summer. And I know ya'll will come and see us as well we have 5 bedrooms and an office so there is plenty of room No excuse.
Tomorrow Eric will be signing his book he wrote for school at Barnes and Noble he is very excited about that. I will send pics soon and of course the book is about Scooby.
I will be off the blog for awhile but will let everyone know once we are back on.
Also just if any of you are wondering Jay is actually enjoying Abbi i caught him holding her. Too cute I did take pics..
