Deer Hunting Weekend

Brynn has been pretty excited that we've been getting some snow; though she does look pretty serious here, waiting for the bus.



Last weekend we went to Hurdsfield so Dana could go deer hunting. Unfortunately Chad was still finishing harvesting, so Dana hunted with Chad's uncle and cousins. He did get a doe on Sunday morning. Tessa and I had a great time staying up too late chatting and the girls all had fun playing together...and Benjamin, too. :-)

We made a stop on the way through at the Pizza Ranch to eat with Grandpa and Grandma.

  
Playing dress up and coloring at Auntie and Uncle's house.

Always happy and smiling. She mauled her head, poor thing.


 On Saturday night there was a Family Fun Night in Hurdsfield to raise money for the community. They served dinner and had games and prizes for the kids. It was really fun.

Brynn has been looking at this Play-doh dentist set on YouTube lately and lo and behold they had it to play with at the Play-doh table! I didn't think she was going to leave that thing to play any games so she could get some prizes.

Elise getting in on some Play-doh action, too.


She did end up winning a couple prize sets which were really awesome. One of them was a Play-doh extruder that she picked out.

Our little busy bee. She was trying so hard to roll over here, and finally she just got really still. She must have worn herself  out trying to roll over and she fell asleep there for a loooong time. She is so active, always trying to sit up and roll over.

Bedtime stories.

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...
