This past weekend we got together with Dana's family at Uncle John and Auntie Christel's house in Bemidji. It was the first time we had all been together in a while, so we took the opportunity to officially celebrate Papa Kevin's birthday. Brynn helped blow out candles, of course. Happy birthday, Grandpa.
Saturday morning Grandma had a project ready for Brynn. Grandma had baked cookies and brought the goods to have Brynn frost them. They turned out great.
Finger-lickin' good. :-) |
It was a beautiful weekend, so yesterday we took a walk through through the trails on Uncle and Auntie's property. The previous owners had quite a few deer stands in the woods there and Brynn had to check them all out.
Brynn wanted Auntie to get her a cattail, but it was too wet down there.
Uncle John was kind enough to take some family photos of us in hopes of having some good shots to use for our Christmas card picture. Since this one is just of us three, I probably won't use it in the card, so I thought I'd share it, I don't have many pictures of the three of us girls (good ones anyway), so I really cherish this one especially. Thanks again, John, for taking the pictures and the rest of the family for walking around with us acting like monkeys to get Clara to smile in the general direction of the camera. :-)
Buddies. Brynn really like snuggling with Gray Cat. Clara *really* loved the cats, but maybe a little too aggressively at times. Brynn went with the guys last night to watch the Beavers play hockey. Uncle John bought Brynn her own Beaver's t-shirt, which she has on in this pic.
Oh, Clara. Little mother.
It was pretty nice out at home, too, when we got back to Fargo today. We had just enough time to fool around outside while supper was baking in the oven.
Clara got super relaxed in the swing and kept mumbling 'ma-ma-ma-ma' just to keep herself awake. Ha.

Weee! I sure do love a good leaf pile, so I just couldn't resist taking a turn at having a jump. Dana and I couldn't stop laughing when we looked at the pic on my camera.
Oh, those dimples! |
