Easter 2016

We had a great Easter celebration this past weekend. I was so elated at how nice the weather was.

Daddy was home with the girls on Good Friday, as Brynn had school off. Brynn has tomorrow off as well, so I am home with them then.

The girls got right to work on Easter projects when we got to Grandpa & Grandma Froemming's house on Friday night.

Brynn's favorite: decorating the Easter tree.

Making photo bunny crafts:





These M&M Pretzel Flowers were super yummy.







Brynn pretty much had a full spa day on Saturday with a foot soak, mani/pedi, hair trim and braids. So, she wanted me to take a 'formal' photo of her. :-) 



Brynn got started on egg dyeing while she was waiting for Clara to wake up from her nap.







Waiting for a snack.




Grandma orchestrated a scavenger hunt for the girls to find their Easter baskets from them.




There they are!




Trying on their coordinating outfits.

The sunrise was beautiful this morning, with fog lying on the field at the farm.

He is risen indeed!

The Easter Bunny was slow delivering his baskets for the girls this morning, so before we left for church, Brynn left him a note and some treats

 He had brought the baskets while we were at church:











The girls with their bunny projects from Friday night. And Clara's belly. :-)



Still busy! Brynn and Grandma sewed a skirt for Brynn this afternoon....




Still more projects! After we got home, Daddy and Brynn started on a picnic table just for the girls. Clara was out helping too and was the ultimate assistant. It turned out great! I can't wait for them to start using it this spring and summer.

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...

Halloween 2025

Happy Halloween! We did trick-or-treating at my office again and celebrated National Cat Day a couple of days late. Unicorn making magic happen! The kids and Freddy. We got a little bit of a late start around 7:30. We went to a neighborhood near the high school where several of Clara's friends live. We stopped at Micah's house to say hi and another schoolmate happened to be over as well. We got to visiting too long and by the time we headed back out, some houses either had run out of candy (including Micah's, where they went through 600 pieces his mom said) or were already done for the night. But, we still got around to several. It had just gotten done raining and the wind was cold, so I didn't care to be out too long myself. Clara asked to have another post-Halloween party this year and Brynn planned and executed the whole thing. One of our fav parts was the missing children posters which were all the guests. Green Army Man, Clara Barton, Luna Lovegood (from Harry Pott...
