Four-time Bouncin' Basher

Just doing a little catching up on the blog tonight, starting out with last weekend when we celebrated cousin Benjamin's first birthday! It hardly seems like any time has passed since we were over in Bismarck enjoying 70* weather and visiting the Weckerly family's new arrival. He had a great dinosaur-themed birthday.


This is the page Brynn completed for the preschool share bag. The longer sentence she wrote says, "I like to be anything." However, she answered the posed question with 'doctor.' That is her in the middle with the audioscope and clipboard. On the right is a mom and her baby waiting to be seen and the house thing on the left is the playhouse that is available to play in at the particular doctor's office she usually visits.

West Fargo Parks held its annual Bouncin' Bash again this year, and of course, we didn't want to miss out on that, as this was Brynn's fourth year attending. And what a difference a year makes in so many ways. As I mentioned, we were enjoying unseasonably warm temperatures last year and the weekend of the Bouncin' Bash in 2012 had been no exception. As you may recall from that year's blog post (http://froemmingfamily.blogspot.com/2012/03/what-day.html), Brynn had spent the remainder of the day outside with a t-shirt on. Well, this year was about 60 degrees colder :-( The other difference this year was that Brynn was the most brave she has been at the Bouncin' Bash. She tried almost every bouncy thing and more. And last year she loved the shooting range and even said that was the first thing she was going to do this year, but ended up not being into it at all this time. Another successful Bouncin' Bash in the books.












Oops. ;-)



Fort! They actually made forts at Sunday school yesterday, so I think that's where her inspiration for this one came from. She invited me in there, and it was about 90*, I think.

Fall Things + Dana's Hunting Trip

 Clara and I walked over to the high school for a boys' soccer game. They were pretty impressive to watch. Elise and Clara had fun raking leaves and Grandpa and Grandma's lake. Well, I know Clara had a great time for sure. I can't remember if I had posted that Dana did away with the garden and planted grass where it once was. So, Clara mowed that section. It was a perfect size for her to tackle. She might have found herself a summer job already. An amazing double rainbow! Thank you to those who donated for Clara's school walk-a-thon which took place last Monday. Dana and I were able to go watch and then joined in for some laps as well. Benny the Eagle was out there cheering the kids on too. Dana was busy making monster cookies for his annual hunting trip up north with his Dad and family friends. He kindly left some behind for us...which are long since gone now. :-) Grandma Holly came up while the guys were gone and took Clara shopping and the girls for lunch on Saturday

Thanksgiving 2023

The kids rolled out and baked sugar cookies for Thanksgiving. We finished our thankful pumpkin. I saw this in the store and given the season, it took me right back to my Grandma D's house on Thanksgiving and the bowl of walnuts she'd have on her table with the nutcracker. I wanted to buy it just for nostalgia purposes. Cora and Clara made these adorable turkey crafts at the crafternoon at the library.  On Tuesday we went downtown for the tree lighting at Broadway Square. Abby, Hubert's sister, joined us as well. She just turned 10, so she got along pretty well with Clara. They had s'mores kits so we had to toast some mallows right away. I love how Clara's marshmallow is completely ablaze and she's still posing for the photo. Hahaha. We had to visit the reindeer too. I made them do jazz hands. And then, of course, we had to hit up Blackbird afterward. Our Wednesday morning XaBeat class. We were feelin' pretty festive. The girls had Wednesday off from school,

May Day + My Birthday + Star Wars Day

Brynn put together our May Day baskets and did a fantastic job. Clara and I did the deliveries... And we received one as well with these beautiful flowers. It was from Clara's friend, Cora, and her fam. We went out to dinner as a family to celebrate my birthday on Wednesday to best accommodate schedules this week. I got to open my cards and gifts when we got home. I had picked up a slice of puppy chow cake at Sonder Bakehouse so we all shared that. Then Brynn and I went out to play a little tennis. It was a beautiful day outside. I had taken Friday (my actual birthday) off of work and Tessa came up to have brunch with me. We had Black Coffee + Waffle Bar. It was so fun. Then May did my hair as it was overdue for a cut and color. Dana and I were able to go out just us two while Brynn took Clara to her school fun night...not only that, but Brynn also volunteered to sell tickets/wristbands (I was originally going to do it) so that I didn't have to and could go out. 💜 I had a coup
