September Update

What a busy month! Here is a photo update with brief descriptions on what we have been doing at the Mohrmann House. We are glad that fall is here and are looking forward to more fun things in October!

Henry's Soccer team, the Sharks....coached by Kara & Gregg! This was before their first game on 09.11.10. We have had 3 games and are 3-0!

Saturday September 11, we helped host a couple's shower for our friends Tim & Renee. They are getting married on October 30. We hosted with Shelly, Josh, Christy, and Tim. We had a great time with our friends. Thanks to Zee-Zee for having the kids for a sleep-over!

Gregg with his goofy boys wearing old Bermuda Bobcats shirts....Gregg's elementary school was Bermuda Elementary.

Saturday September 18 I ran in a 5K....this was before the race.

Later that day, I took the kids to Forest Park to watch the Balloon Race. Gregg was at the Cards game for Dio's Bachelor Party. We had a great spot to watch the balloons. It was so fun!







We got to see one land! Pretty cool!



They were flying right over us!

The kids went wild when we saw this one....they said, "Daddy would LOVE to see the beer bottle Mommy, take a picture!"

Sunday September 19 we went to Tower Grove Park for Pete's Party! Pete is a friend of Rae's and we had fun time at the park eating and playing.


Had to take a picture of Henry sleeping...he now gets an allowance for making his bed and feeding Turbo. He refuses to sleep under his covers so that he won't have to make his bed in the morning! Plus, he looks HUGE in his bed! He is getting SO big!

I.Love.This.Face!
Ben is hilarious! He loves spaghetti (what we had for dinner the night I took this picture) and has a black eye (his right) and has had his curls cut shorter! He is one amazing little guy!

On Friday September 24 we took the kids to Stacy Park in Olivette for their Parties in the Park Night. They had the fire engines out, inflatable games, face painting, food, and once it was dark, a movie. We only stayed for about 30 minutes of the movie, but had a great time being outside and enjoying all the fun things.

Henry LOVED the giant slide!!

Ben on the other hand.....HATED IT! He loved climbing the steps to get up there and then, as you can see, threw a huge fit!

Sunday September 26 we went to Jacob Kohring's 3rd birthday party after church. I was playing around with the black and white feature of my camera and got some neat pictures of the kids. Jacob had a Batman birthday party, which both kids LOVED!



Thursday September 30....CARDS GAME! This was Ben's first game! We took the Metro-Link downtown and everyone had a great time! Plus, the Cards won! We got to the game early since we knew we wouldn't last until the end. We made it through 4.5 innings, which was more than I thought we would.



Such a neat view from the Stadium.

Our seats were WAY up high! But we did have a nice view!

Ben's first Cards game!!


Waiting for the train to take us home!!

Update SOON!

We have had camera issues....and now computer issues.....so very soon I hope to update the blog with pictures of my beautiful children! I have a new camera (same as the other one, long story, but basically I love the people at Creve Couer Camera! They replaced the non-working one with a new one and were fabulous about it.) and we are in the process of getting our computer working because it's old and slow.

Very SOON I will update with pictures. Until them, we are all doing great and staying busy with soccer, school, work, running races, playing, church, and enjoying each other!

Berry Boys

Today is Labor Day.....and we sure enjoyed having the day off! I ran in a 5K this morning and then the kids and I went to have lunch and swim with the Berry Boys and their Mom. Kathy and I went to Drury together and since our boys are the same age, we like to get together and let them play. We had pizza and also went to swim at Charlie and Matthew's grandma's pool. Henry and Ben had SO much fun that they were fast asleep within 10 minutes of getting into the car! And then they both slept for almost 2 hours.

Thanks Kathy, Charlie, and Matthew for the fun day! It was the highlight of our day off! Can't wait for the baby to arrive!!

Happy Birthday Uncle Will

Sunday was Uncle Will's 27th birthday. We went to the lake to fish and hang out on the water before Will's birthday lunch. We were able to have a delicious lunch with Will, Erin and also Erin's parents before leaving to head home. Thanks Mom for the yummy lunch!

Beaver Lake

This Labor Day weekend we spent some of it in Arkansas. We left Friday after work and came back Sunday night. It was a lot of fun to get away. The Mills family joined us on the lake Saturday for a picnic lunch, fishing, swimming, and a boat ride. Will and Erin also stopped by for a visit. After naps we headed to the Cress's boatdock for a 60th birthday party for Lisa. Henry and Ben had LOTS of fun playing and hanging out with friends as well as Nana and Papa.

Mabel and Ben playing with the minnows.
