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.

Happy 10th Birthday, Clara!

Clara made a countdown chain to her 10th birthday. We baked a red velvet cake for her family party and chocolate cupcakes for her friend party. She looks so tall in some of these pics! Izabell's boyfriend, Neil, and Clara share the same birthday, so they all went out for lunch on their actual birthday on the 2nd. And then Neil had to get a tour of the Clara Express. Dana was in charge of getting balloons for the party and I sent him to Dollar Tree which apparently doesn't fill latex balloons, only Mylar. Dana "just knew" he had gotten the 'wrong' ones, and called me in a fit of rage over it and then followed up with this photo. haha. It all worked out just fine for Clara's ninja themed parties and I was able to pick up a few more black latex balloons from Cash Wise on my way home from work. Clara had already started partying at Prairie Joy's birthday party the night before, so I think she was short on sleep. I couldn't find her when I got home on F...

Mom + Brynn Take Chicago 2024

Brynn and I were very excited to embark on our mother-daughter trip to Chicago this week. We had gifted Brynn part of the trip as her sweet 16 birthday gift. We flew direct out of Fargo on Wednesday. We stayed at the Grand Plaza apartments on State Street in a VRBO rental. We loved it there! The building had an outdoor rooftop pool, library, gaming/movie room and gym on the 9th floor. This was us looking down from our 50th floor balcony. I refused to go to the edge of the balcony. Blech. (Photo credit: Brynn on this one!) Here are a few pics of inside the apartment that I hawked off of the VRBO listing. We got our things settled and ran next door to a Jewel Osco grocery for a few things and then got ready for dinner at River Roast along the Chicago River. It was very good and beautiful weather. I think Brynn said this was her favorite place that we ate at. Our waiter Jorge brought Brynn a carrot cake when we said we were celebrating Brynn's birthday on the trip. We came back to the...

May Happenings + More Birthday Celebration + Northern Lights + Mother's Day

 S'mores on the deck... We got Brynn's team tennis pics back. They turned out great! I had to get a couple of pins and magnets. I should have taken a pic of Hubert and me spectating at one of her games last week as Hubert was sporting his pin. :-) We three girls played last week during a nice evening. Clara's class is doing an alphabet countdown to the last day of school. J was joke day. And Clara loves to share jokes with her teacher. She made her own joke book to bring. Cindy took Dad and me out to lunch for our birthdays last Thursday. It was such a fun time and Dad and I each got a cookie skillet for being the birthday kids! So delish. We went to Granite City. Always good! Dana and I went to Sartell, MN on Thursday night and arrived late. We stopped over at the after party of the groom's dinner for our friends getting married on Friday. I snagged their kitty for a snuggle. Roger and I were the photographers for the wedding which was beautiful. We had such a good tim...
