'The Smurfs', BFF Reagan, Rheault Farm Fall Festival

What another busy, but super-fun weekend for Brynn. On Friday she trekked to Hurdsfield for a movie and sleepover at cousins Reagan and Elise's house. Auntie Tessa took Reagan and Brynn to see 'The Smurfs" in the movie theater. I talked to Tessa at about midnight on Friday just to hear all the hilarity that ensued during their 'date.' We were laughing so hard. Reagan and Brynn each refer to other as each other's best friend now. It's so sweet.

Saturday Brynn came back to Fargo with Grandpa and Grandma Dietz. We went out to eat and came home where Brynn could show off her tap dancing to Grandpa and Grandma; and then tell all of us to 'settle down.' :-)

Today we went to the Rheault Farm Fall Festival. It was gloomy, chilly and rainy this morning, but you wouldn't have known it by the afternoon. It was perfect weather. Brynn rode the barrel train, went on a carriage ride, decorated a cookie, visited the petting zoo and went on inflatables. It was so fun. When she was riding the barrel train, she actually thought she was steering the whole train. Ha. She was really concentrating.

We all took a nice, long nap afterward. Apparently Brynn's baby did, too. She told me her baby, Olivia, just woke up from a nap. So, I asked her how long she had slept. "Ummmm, about four miles," she said. I'm still trying to figure out if that's a long time.

Mama even got to hold a bunny.

The keeper!

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...

Easter + April Birthdays

The girls had Thursday, Friday and Monday off from school for the Easter break. So, Dana and I took most of the same time off (work) to match. Always reading. 💜 Hanging out with Brynn. 💗 Dana and I went on a Costco date. We tried our hand at homemade ravioli again. I think it went a bit more smoothly compared to last time. Hubert's sister Abby stopped by for a visit. We hadn't seen her in a long time and so it was fun to have her We celebrated Dana's birthday and kicked it off with some Sandy's donuts. I don't recall what was so funny. haha. Clara's card. Birthday King Clara dyed eggs. I baked a birthday cake for Dana, messed it up getting it out of the pans, and Clara somehow cobbled it together into a masterpiece. Dana chose Lucky 13's for dinner out. On Saturday we packed up to hit up Oliver's birthday party before we went on to Dead Lake for Easter. Oliver is 9!

January + Valentine's Day + CATS!

We ARE still alive over here and have not frozen to death. Here's what we've been up to for the past month and a half! Brynn and Hubert at the OG (Olive Garden): 'Lady and the Tramp' style. haha. Taking in a Force game...with extra fighting. It was very exciting. One Sunday when Clara was at a sleepover, the three of us went to Black Coffee Waffle Bar after church and then for some crepes and boba at Tea & Crepe. Then Brynn and I went prom dress shopping which was really fun. She did find a dress she loves so that was a relief. This is not the one she chose, but she tried on quite a few nice ones. Clara made crowns for the king and I (me). Clara had to write an essay to be considered for the robotics team at school. She waited for at least a couple of weeks to learn if she was accepted, and unfortunately was not. She was pretty disappointed, but she does have a chance to reapply next year when she's a fifth grader, and won't have to write another essay. I th...
