sisters

Daddy saw a LEGO set online that he couldn't pass up, so he and the girls worked on some LEGO fun last Sunday.





The girls were being extra silly in Clara's room one night before bed.



Of course there are hard feelings around here about something every day.



Followed by "sorry" and kisses to make-up.



Yay! I finally made it to visit my sister and her new baby, Oliver, yesterday. I only stayed one night and headed back yesterday evening. But, I was so grateful for the time I was able to spend with them. He is such a good, sweet baby. We did take quite a few pictures of him, but I will wait to post any until Tessa has the chance to first. I did snap this one with my phone.



What a beautiful night it was to be outside tonight. It was nice to get out after so many rainy, dreary days.

Gettin' in my steps! Ha.



Clara had a rough go of things today, as she fell and scraped up her face on some cement at daycare. :-( Poor thing.


Brynn met up with some of her classmate friends at the park. She was able to make plans for a playdate with one of them tomorrow, so she's really looking forward to that.



Clara trying to keep up with the big kids.

It is really hard for us to get Clara to sit still for anything, especially a picture.

She was more interested in what Dad was doing. She's always asking "where Dad?" 



After we came in from outside, of course she had to have a little 'bed lunch,' as my grandpa always used to call it. Her high chair was kind of close to the fridge door which had swung close to her when I opened it to get out some milk for her. Apparently that was too close for her comfort because she held out her hand and told the door, "no, stop!" haha. 


Unfortunately this photo is super grainy, but I just love it anyway. I set Clara in Brynn's lap with her hairbrush and she handed the brush to Brynn so she could do it. Brynn was singing a sweet song she had made up for her, brushing her hair. And Brynn's mismatched socks, which she loves to wear that way. Heart melting.

Aw . . . such sweet moments. Poor Clara - but I'll bet she'll be healed up in no time. Sounds like she's quite the talker these days! You are so fortunate to have the park so near - fun for Brynn & friends especially!

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! Photo Cred: Grandma Wanda In a shocking turn of events, most of the kids ended up in ...

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...
