Butterfly Ball

Yesterday Brynn and Dana attending the Butterfly Ball again. This year Brynn asked if I would do her hair instead of going to the salon. I'm not the best at doing hair, but she was happy with how it turned out.

Last year I missed out on getting a picture of her applying her lip gloss in the mirror, so this time I made sure to have my camera ready. I was so glad I did; they are my favorite pics from the night. It's just so Brynnie to be making sure her lip gloss is on just right. 

Daddy said he would take her out to eat; anywhere she wanted to go...even pasta! For many days leading up the ball, she had decided on McDonald's (or MichaelDonald's as she still calls it). At the last minute, though, she changed her mind to Subway. So, that's where they went.

They had a great time again and she hardly got in the door before she started telling me about their night. They played all her favorite songs, and she told me she made a couple friends.

I told her today that I was glad she had such a good time and she looked so pretty last night. And I mentioned how I almost got emotional right before they left and she asked me if it was because I didn't get to go with, too. Ha.

Oh, and  yes, that is the same dress as she wore last year. I am really getting my money's worth out of this thing. She has worn it to every wedding she's been to since I bought it, and now to two Butterfly Balls.

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...
