Valentines

We didn't really do anything specific for Valentines Day, but Brynn had a party at school on Friday and Clara exchanged valentines with her buddies as well. 

Daddy had to lower the crib so litlte monkey wouldn't escape. 



Aunt Cindy sent me this idea, and since Clara's room at daycare is so into Minions, I thought it would be fun for her to bring these.


Some of Clara's loot. I loved all the creative gifts!

Clara's valentine art.

I asked Brynn if she wanted to make a specific themed valentines box, but she just wanted to decorate a Kleenex box. She ended up adding a 'sucker holder' which was Minion themed. 




The valentine card Brynn made for me:



Brynn did not want to do traditional valentines with candy this year, so she opted for conversation hearts. Notice the little heart on Blake's box. Looks like he may have been Brynnie's valentine. ;-)



 Brynn had a friend stay for a sleepover on Saturday night. Not sure how much sleep they got, as sleepovers usually go, but at least she was able to sleep in yesterday with no school.


Ready to take my order.


Clara gets really mad if she can't get her baby (or lil penguin) wrapped up just how she wants. And she doesn't want anyone else to do it either. This video illustrates her rage very well. Yes, that penguin did almost hit me in the head and yes she did fall off the chair at the end of the video. In the midst of everything, she also found a crumb which she had to taste. Blech. Crazy Clara!

Aw, Clara just gets cuter and cuter! I was just telling someone the other day what a little mommy she is to her baby dolls. Glad to see Brynn's liking her jammies :) They got some cute valentines!

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...
