Water Weekend

We had another great weekend in the water! My sister's in-laws were nice enough to have us out at their lake place again on Tamarac Lake. Brynn and I had our first ride on Super Mabel...and it was awesome! It's like riding on a couch on the water.  Brynn even rode on my jet ski with me quite a bit and the cousins had a great time playing together again. Brynn got so tired out, I couldn't even change her into her PJs before she crawled into bed that night. She woke up a little confused as to why she still had her clothes on.

We celebrated Father's Day with Dana by hanging out at home. Brynn spent most of the day in her new pool. We had such a fun day together; we didn't even eat one meal in our kitchen. We made Daddy breakfast in bed for Father's Day which ended up with all three of us eating in bed together. It was so nice outside, we had lunch and supper "poolside." ;-) Brynn made a kite for Dana at daycare and was pretty proud to give it to him yesterday.

Brynn kept trying to take over on the steering.






Reagan looks worried. Probably rightfully so.



Brynn even got to help drive the pontoon.

Brynn in her new pool. It is so awesomely large,
especially compared to her old one.


Hopefully not a case of heat exhaustion. :-)
It was really hot when we were first out there!

She was such a little fish in that pool; so cute.

Taking a quick break to get a bite of Daddy's ice cream.



Packin' heat with the "shoot gun" aka squirt gun.



Giving Daddy a blow-out.

Haha! Great update. Love that last picture. That pool is huge! Hope we can come over and try it out. Her little bikini is adorable. That picture of them in those green chairs...I am just flashing ahead like 10 years to them sunbathing out there and chatting away.

More Graduations + Start of Summer

A couple of weekends ago Clara had a very busy, but fun Saturday with her friend Cora and her sister, Violet. The sisters' dad took them to the Breakfast on the Farm near Hawley (We had gone many years ago. Clara was so little, she didn't remember it.)   They also stopped at the dirt track races on their way back into town and then Dana met up with them at MSUM so they could go to the oceanarium there. We had never been before, but it was on our "Moorhead List" of fun things to do in the 56560 zip code. So, check! Out on side-by-side rides any chance we get. We parked on Sunset Road, as we've dubbed it, to watch the sun go down. There is usually one or two other cars parked on this low maintenance road whenever we venture down there. Clara into her granny hobbies. :-) We attended the last of this year's graduation parties over the weekend. I went to one in town on Friday night and then Clara and I stopped at Karlie's party near Fergus Falls on our way to Z...

Fourth of July 2025

We were able to spend the Fourth at Tamarac again this year, with my sister and her family.  We arrived just in time for Brynn to change into her tennis outfit for the boat parade float. Their theme was sports this year. Clara and Oliver caught candy from the dock. This was the first Fourth of July holiday spent at my sister and Chad's own cabin on the same lake that Chad's parents have their cabin. Clara brought my mom one of her favs, Tootsie Roll. We were also celebrating Mom's freedom this holiday...from working on the Fourth! For the past how many years, Mom has had to work the Fourth of July parade back home in Carrington. However, this year as she is preparing to retire and training in her replacement, she gave the parade reins to her successor. It was great to have both Mom and Dad spend the Fourth with all of us together. It was just like old times when we all gathered at Terry and Wanda's for lunch though. I made a new recipe for dessert: red, white and blue c...

Reagan Graduation + MDW + Tennis

This past weekend our oldest niece, Reagan, graduated high school. She will be attending UND for nursing in the fall. We're so proud of you and love you so much, Reagan!   Cousin Cayden had his Italian soda bar set up at the party which was super fun and a big hit. She opened a few gifts the night before her commencement. Reagan is the third generation to graduate from Harvey High as my mom and her dad, Chad also attended there. This was such a fun gift idea that Tessa put together from her and Chad. We got back home Sunday evening and between the four of us doing different things, spent most of Memorial Day outside. It was such beautiful weather. Brynn and I played tennis and Dana and Clara replaced some shrubs and did yardwork. The tennis season has wrapped up for Brynn now. She's sad to not be playing anymore, but still gets some court time between playing with friends and sometimes Clara and/or me. We're so proud of her and glad she played again this year. I had taken s...
