Happy Anniversary, Grandpa & Grandpa; Popsicles, Baseball

This past weekend we were at Dead Lake celebrating Grandpa and Grandma Froemming's 40th anniversary!

Auntie Christel kneeboarding

Hello, auntie!

Brynn and I relaxing on the water trampoline.

Clara is a little water bug. We went swimming in the lake later in the afternoon and she was just kicking away in the water.

We went out to eat for the anniversary dinner at Thumper Pond and I was taking a picture of Christel and John, and Brynn asked me to take her picture, too.

Happy 40th!

A few weeks ago we bought molds to make our own popsicles. Brynn has been itching to try them out and she found a tutorial on YouTube that showed a recipe. It was pretty much just yogurt and milk and then we added Oreos for one type and strawberries for a second one. I think we needed to add sugar or perhaps should have used ice cream instead because they actually weren't that good, unfortunately. We had fun making them, though.

Happy Clara. I haven't captured it yet, but she full-on crawls now on all fours. She is usually looking for trouble and something to get into.

She also does this neck scrunch thing that the daycare girls think is so funny. Of course we think it's funny, too.

It was a nice night tonight for a little bat and ball..

Oh my gosh, I love Clara's swimsuit! She looks like such a big girl sitting in that chair. Sweet Brynn pics. Happy Anniversary to Kevin & Holly! That is such a funny capture of everyone imitating Clara's "neck scrunch."

Awww . . Clara sure is a cute lil' bug - so fun! Nice photo of the anniversary couple - Congrats on 40 years Froemmings! Brynn looks just like you - when you played ball in our yard. We all played and used ice cream pail lids for the bases! LOL Remember the class party we had that summer when you were going to be a freshman? Such fun memories.

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...

Fourth of July 2025

We were able to spend the Fourth at Tamarac again this year, with my sister and her family. We arrived just in time for Brynn to change into her tennis outfit for the boat parade float. Their theme was sports this year. Clara and Oliver caught candy from the dock. This was the first Fourth of July holiday spent at my sister and Chad's own cabin on the same lake that Chad's parents have their cabin. Clara brought my mom one of her favs, Tootsie Roll. We were also celebrating Mom's freedom this holiday...from working on the Fourth! For the past how many years, Mom has had to work the Fourth of July parade back home in Carrington. However, this year as she is preparing to retire and training in her replacement, she gave the parade reins to her successor. It was great to have both Mom and Dad spend the Fourth with all of us together. It was just like old times when we all gathered at Terry and Wanda's for lunch though. I made a new recipe for dessert: red, white and blue c...

Reagan Graduation + MDW + Tennis

This past weekend our oldest niece, Reagan, graduated high school. She will be attending UND for nursing in the fall. We're so proud of you and love you so much, Reagan! Cousin Cayden had his Italian soda bar set up at the party which was super fun and a big hit. She opened a few gifts the night before her commencement. Reagan is the third generation to graduate from Harvey High as my mom and her dad, Chad also attended there. This was such a fun gift idea that Tessa put together from her and Chad. We got back home Sunday evening and between the four of us doing different things, spent most of Memorial Day outside. It was such beautiful weather. Brynn and I played tennis and Dana and Clara replaced some shrubs and did yardwork. The tennis season has wrapped up for Brynn now. She's sad to not be playing anymore, but still gets some court time between playing with friends and sometimes Clara and/or me. We're so proud of her and glad she played again this year. I had taken s...
