Happy 7th Birthday, Brynn

Happy Birthday to our Brynnie girl! She has been so excited in anticipation for her birthday. She even made a countdown chain and went right away to take down the last link on Friday morning. She received two birthday calls right away, and one even before she was up!

I showed her the below picture that I posted on Facebook for her birthday, and she said, "aww, cute. I had a lot of hair!" Ha.

It sounded like she had fun celebrating at school and at Hope. She brought cookies to school to share for her birthday treat.

Brynn's First Birthday

Of course Brynn chose McDonald's as her choice restaurant to eat out for her birthday dinner. Grandpa and Grandma were coming through town, so they met us for supper. Brynn was pretty excited about that.

She also wanted to have a movie night after we went out to eat, so she watched 'Tangled' for a while until bedtime. She opened one of our gifts which was this set of headphones.

Today was Brynn's friend party. Rosha came over early to play and she helped us make the brownies Brynn requested for the party treat.

This year her theme for the party is the same as her family party which was an art theme. We thought it would be a fun craft for the party to decorate party hats.

Brynn decorated the favor bags for the girls.

There's Suzie, hanging out waiting for the party to start. She's actually fairly under the weather at the moment. :-( Poor babe. She is running a fever and has a cough and what appears to be a general nasty cold.

The girls were all very creative with their hats. It was fun to see what they came up with.

She had a fun time celebrating her birthday with her friends and is now looking forward to her family party next weekend. At the beginning of the day yesterday she didn't quite feel seven yet, but by the time I picked her up at the end of the day, she said she definitely felt seven. ;-)

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...
