Fargo Force Game

This weekend we hung around home. It's always nice for us to spend a weekend getting things done and just being at home. Brynn probably sees it more as boring, as she asked if Rosha could come play Saturday afternoon. I'm so grateful she has such a good buddy who can come over and play so frequently. It is pretty funny to overhear some of their conversations. They do use their imaginations quite a bit when playing which is illustrated in this story: 

I was making supper upstairs and the girls were playing doctor down in Brynn's room. Before starting supper, I had already assisted Nurse Brynn with her patient who was having some pain in her mouth. After surgery, she seemed to be doing better. They must have switched roles when Rosha comes hurrying up the stairs to ask for my help because "Brynn is having a baby, and I don't know how to get it out of her!" Ha! So, I scurried downstairs to find Brynn lying in her bed covered with a big blanket and a lump over her belly where her baby doll was underneath her blanket. :-) I think she had a girl, if I remember correctly. Yes, Cinderella, was her name.

Of course Brynn was pretty disappointed when it was time for Rosha to go home, but that evening we went to Brynn's first Fargo Force hockey game. I received complimentary tickets from a local business that I use both personally and professionally. They were great seats which made it all the more fun. Brynn seemed to think it was pretty exciting and wondered why there were no girl players. I told her I think girls do play hockey (in school anyway) and she decided she would like to play and be the goalie. The only disappointment, other than a loss for the Force, was the foul language we heard on a few instances. :-( There are a lot of other families that attend the games, so I wouldn't have readily expected that. I don't think Brynn heard, though, at least. Probably because she was so busy asking a million questions. he he.

We like attending the Force games as well. My first game I complained to an usher about the language being used around us and I am pretty sure the "gentelmen" were asked to leave. :)

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
