Hope Fest, etc

Brynn has started learning keyboarding in school and the teacher gave the students a link where they can go online and practice their skills. 



Always doing hair...



Clara usually drinks the remaining milk from her cereal bowl when she's done with the cereal. And she loves syrup, so here she was drinking her syrup. No wonder she's so sweet. :-/ She drank the rest of the green bean juice when the beans were all gone out of the bowl the other day. Ewww.

Rosha came over to play last Saturday. I had found these big sidewalk chalk paint Crayons. They were pretty messy and didn't work really great, but the girls did seem to get a kick out of them,  I guess.



 I have been getting a kick out of the daycare care sheet notations lately. They write if your child has mostly had a green, yellow or red day. Green is they were happy all day, no issues, not sad, they listened, etc. Yellow represents minor issues like the child was sad/anxious/mad, had some listening issues, things like that. Clara has then received red when she has bitten the other daycare children. Anyway, so whenever I see 'yellow' written on her sheet, I always inquire as to what it had been for. Usually it's just that she had gotten a bit emotional in the morning and then after her nap, she is all happy again. But lately they've also been writing "just being Clara." This apparently means that she was just being her stubborn self, wanting to do her own thing. Like the other day she refused to sit down for one of the group activities they were doing together. She apparently is on her own agenda. Haha.


Last Sunday was our church's kick-off event for the year, Hope Fest. It had been quite a few years since the last time we had been there. So, the girls and I headed over for a bit as Brynn said she'd like to go and it was so nice out.

"Fishing"

Clara helping Brynn with her sundae cone. Also, I'm not pulling her hair; just holding it out of the way as it was really windy.

They had the best photo booth set-up I had ever seen. So fun.

Walking home.

This past Tuesday Grandpa and Grandma Froemming were in town for some appointments and errands and surprised the girls by picking them up early at Hope. They walked with the wagon and made a stop at the park on the way home.


Lovey snuggles.

Great pics! I've never thought of having them practice keyboarding online, that's a neat idea.

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...
