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.

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
