Birthday Celebration & Father's Day

We had another busy weekend! On Friday night we were invited over for dinner at Brynn's best friend, Rosha's house. We had a good time visiting with her parents.

Saturday we headed to Sartell for our friends' birthday party. Zander turned 6 and Maizie turned 4. After lots of playing, ice cream cake eating and gift opening, we headed  over to Miltona to stay with Grandpa and Grandma Oberg (Dana's maternal grandparents). We had a great time staying with them. 

On Sunday we spent some family time out at Grandpa and Grandma's lake place and stopped at Grandpa and Grandma Froemming's on our way home. We ate dinner there and gave Papa Kevin his Father's Day gift and left Brynn there for a couple nights. She called us to say good-night the past couple of nights, and she is having a grand old time.

Love this picture! You can tell where Brynn gets her dimples from. ;-)
And I love the way she has her hand on his arm. He he.



Playing with cousin Marki at Grandpa and Grandma's lake. She wasn't very brave to go into the water, so Marki gave her a piggy back ride. She didn't last too long, though. Ha.

Christmas 2025/New Years 2026

Christmas gift wrapping shenanigans: Keeping Brynn company while she wraps all of our Christmas gifts. Brynn and I couldn't help but peek at the 150 Famous Poems book we gave to Clara. So many good ones. Getting into the holiday spirit at Courts Plus. Ha! Christmas eve brunch. Clara's gingerbread house contest strategy notes. Contestants were allowed 20 minutes to shop for their houses at Wal-mart. We left ourselves little time to get ready for the 3:00 Christmas eve service at our church. But, we made it and thankfully didn't have to sit in the overflow area in the chapel! It was a beautiful service. We had bit more time in between church and when we planned to leave for Tessa's, so I mixed up my eggnog and we got the car packed. Tessa's family hosted Christmas eve at their lake home. We had a great mix of people to play a game of Mind the Gap. Getting cookies ready for Santa. Clara got Dana and me up around 7:30 and we watched her open her stocking. I think Dana a...

Halloween 2025

Happy Halloween! We did trick-or-treating at my office again and celebrated National Cat Day a couple of days late. Unicorn making magic happen! The kids and Freddy. We got a little bit of a late start around 7:30. We went to a neighborhood near the high school where several of Clara's friends live. We stopped at Micah's house to say hi and another schoolmate happened to be over as well. We got to visiting too long and by the time we headed back out, some houses either had run out of candy (including Micah's, where they went through 600 pieces his mom said) or were already done for the night. But, we still got around to several. It had just gotten done raining and the wind was cold, so I didn't care to be out too long myself. Clara asked to have another post-Halloween party this year and Brynn planned and executed the whole thing. One of our fav parts was the missing children posters which were all the guests. Green Army Man, Clara Barton, Luna Lovegood (from Harry Pott...

Clara's 11th Birthday

Clara celebrated her 11th birthday with a disco themed party with her friends and musical party with family. Happy birthday, Clara Rae! We love you! Brynn baked and decorated Clara's family party cake while Clara decorated the cupcakes she and I baked for her friend party. Dana and Clara turned the back garage into a discotheque and Clara made up a playlist for Dana to use when he was DJing.   I made her birthday baked oats the morning of her birthday. Brynn did an incredible job on the cake! After her own party, Clara was off to another one for her friend Elizabeth.  On Sunday Clara wanted to go to The Olive Garden for her birthday dinner out. They gave her a whole container of mints just for her. Ha.
