Summer Update

It's hard to believe this time next year it will be Brynn getting ready to start Kindergarten. This year, however, we're thinking of cousin Reagan and her big day tomorrow as she has her first day of school! 

Preschool has been going well for Brynn. They are doing lots of fun activities and projects. Thursday is the start of school here in Fargo, so today they took a field trip to Lindenwood Park for a special send-off to the children going off to Kindergarten. Here is a picture of Brynn and some of her friends from her class.

The girl on the far left is Rasha. She lives in our neighborhood and sometimes meets up with Brynn at the park.
Lily is on the far right and is someone whom Brynn plays with quite a bit.


Last Thursday Brynn was busy helping Daddy with his snowmobile trailer out in the garage. When I went out there to take some pics, she was so excited and couldn't stop smiling and laughing. It was so cute. She just loves to help us with anything around the house. This was right before Dana tried to cut his thumb off with his angle grinder and I had to take him in to the ER for stitches. :-) Nurse Brynn now doles out his pill to him four times a day.





This past Sunday we had a family reunion with my mom's side at our house.
We had a lot of fun visiting with Grandma, Aunt Judy and our cousins. 
Four generations. Brynn was not happy at this point because the cousins had just left.

Great pics! I love the one of her and her buddies. Thanks for thinking of Reagan! Will update tomorrow. Good pic of the whole gang at the reunion, too.

Happy 10th Birthday, Clara!

Clara made a countdown chain to her 10th birthday. We baked a red velvet cake for her family party and chocolate cupcakes for her friend party. She looks so tall in some of these pics! Izabell's boyfriend, Neil, and Clara share the same birthday, so they all went out for lunch on their actual birthday on the 2nd. And then Neil had to get a tour of the Clara Express. Dana was in charge of getting balloons for the party and I sent him to Dollar Tree which apparently doesn't fill latex balloons, only Mylar. Dana "just knew" he had gotten the 'wrong' ones, and called me in a fit of rage over it and then followed up with this photo. haha. It all worked out just fine for Clara's ninja themed parties and I was able to pick up a few more black latex balloons from Cash Wise on my way home from work. Clara had already started partying at Prairie Joy's birthday party the night before, so I think she was short on sleep. I couldn't find her when I got home on F...

May Happenings + More Birthday Celebration + Northern Lights + Mother's Day

 S'mores on the deck... We got Brynn's team tennis pics back. They turned out great! I had to get a couple of pins and magnets. I should have taken a pic of Hubert and me spectating at one of her games last week as Hubert was sporting his pin. :-) We three girls played last week during a nice evening. Clara's class is doing an alphabet countdown to the last day of school. J was joke day. And Clara loves to share jokes with her teacher. She made her own joke book to bring. Cindy took Dad and me out to lunch for our birthdays last Thursday. It was such a fun time and Dad and I each got a cookie skillet for being the birthday kids! So delish. We went to Granite City. Always good! Dana and I went to Sartell, MN on Thursday night and arrived late. We stopped over at the after party of the groom's dinner for our friends getting married on Friday. I snagged their kitty for a snuggle. Roger and I were the photographers for the wedding which was beautiful. We had such a good tim...

Mom + Brynn Take Chicago 2024

Brynn and I were very excited to embark on our mother-daughter trip to Chicago this week. We had gifted Brynn part of the trip as her sweet 16 birthday gift. We flew direct out of Fargo on Wednesday. We stayed at the Grand Plaza apartments on State Street in a VRBO rental. We loved it there! The building had an outdoor rooftop pool, library, gaming/movie room and gym on the 9th floor. This was us looking down from our 50th floor balcony. I refused to go to the edge of the balcony. Blech. (Photo credit: Brynn on this one!) Here are a few pics of inside the apartment that I hawked off of the VRBO listing. We got our things settled and ran next door to a Jewel Osco grocery for a few things and then got ready for dinner at River Roast along the Chicago River. It was very good and beautiful weather. I think Brynn said this was her favorite place that we ate at. Our waiter Jorge brought Brynn a carrot cake when we said we were celebrating Brynn's birthday on the trip. We came back to the...
