Happy Father's Day

This week Brynn came home from Hope with a grocery sack full of fabric scraps. She was determined to make a blanket/quilt; one each for her and her sister. She divided up the scraps for each of the blankets, and make sure they made it along with us to Grandpa & Grandma Froemmings' this weekend. With the rainy weather, she and Grandma were able to work on the blankets yesterday afternoon. I took a few pics at the beginning and then laid down for a snooze while they were sewing. I woke up to the masterpieces when they were finished. Brynn thought it was so cool. Thanks, Grandma! 




Holly is holding Brynn's and Brynn has baby sister's. They turned out great!


Brynn LOVES doing hair. She likes braiding her own, but I think when she gets a hold of Auntie Christel's hair, she is just in heaven. It's like playing with a life-size Barbie doll! Here she braided Christel's hair into three separate sections/braids and then braided those three sections together into one braid.




Last but not least, Happy Father's Day to the dads and grandpas in our lives! We opened up cards and gifts this morning, so don't mind the bed heads. ;-) Brynn made a fishing craft at Hope.

Daddy was reading Brynn's special personalized message in his card. I love the smile on his face as he's reading it.


We got Grandpa a hammock for at the lake.

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
