Shows, Nowruz, Outside

I don't know how I skipped posting this earlier, but a few weeks ago I went to see Jerry Seinfeld's stand-up show in Grand Forks with my sister and parents. It was a fun night with the 'core four' of us and, of course, Jerry was hilarious.




After we got back from our Minneapolis vacation, that Saturday night we attended the Persian New Year celebration, Nowruz, with Rosha and her family at the NDSU alumni center.






That same weekend we started to see the first sign of spring weather.




Brynn isn't too big for a shoulder ride from Daddy....yet.



A game of memory..



One morning this past week Clara asked Daddy if he would eat his oatmeal with her while she ate her cereal.


Super Mom 

This past Friday night Dana's parents, Dana and I went to the Journey concert at the FARGODOME. I had the time of my life signing along to all the songs. They were great and it was so much fun. My camera phone didn't take the best pics.







This one was off of the Facebook page of a local radio station.


Brynn has been working hard on her book report project. She was assigned Betsy Ross. They were to design a CD cover, come up with song titles for the CD, decorate a box and include five articles that relate to the assigned person and write why you had chosen to include those things and how they relate to the person. She did a great job! She turns it in at school tomorrow.




Brynn finally has another loose tooth. She has only lost two so far (on the bottom). This time it is one of her top front teeth. She took down guesses when Grandpa and Grandma Dietz were here the other day. So far Grandma Laurie is out of the running as the tooth is still in tact tonight! Grandpa and Grandma Froemming got their guess in as well for Thursday. I'll keep ya'll posted!



I wasn't feeling well all day yesterday and spent most of it in bed. :-( Brynnie made up this nice get-well snack mixture for me. So sweet.



It was really foggy in Fargo this morning. This is on our street facing east.



I knew the fog would burn off quickly and give way to a beautifully sunny day! The girls were outside quite a bit today between school, daycare and at home.

January Recap

Right before Christmas break was done, Brynn and  I went downtown to Nichole's for some graduation planning. Making lefse! Clara finished up her time in robotics league with a presentation of the robots and mission that she and her partner/friend, Elizabeth, had been working on. Here's a video compilation of two of the missions they presented. It was so cool. I especially liked the one that picked up the rocks. Some of Brynn's recent drawings. Bedtime snuggles. 💜 I was messaging with Clara's teacher to see if he could let her know that Brynn would pick her up from school one of the very cold days last week. He wrote me back to confirm Clara received the message. I asked Clara when she got home if she wrote that last sentence. Haha. Clara had her first swim meet on Saturday, which was a 'home meet,' hosted by Clara's team, the Red Dragons at Moorhead High School. She was disgruntled about getting up at 7:00 am on a Saturday morning, but each team had specifi...

Clara's Recital + Scouting Event + XaFriendsgiving

I was in full fall mode watching 'When Harry Met Sally" in my turkey leg slippers the other night. Dana and I went out to eat at Granite City on Friday night and I think I found my signature cocktail for Christmas. It's called Snow on the Beach and it was so pretty and tasted really good! Saturday morning Clara had her piano recital and did a great job! Thank you to sister Brynn and the grandparents for coming. After lunch with everyone (family, not the other piano students), she was off to the next thing which was  a Scouting event at NDSU. She had to miss the morning session because of the recital, but in the afternoon they made a tool box. It turned out great. That night we had the XaBeat (the exercise dance class I go to) crew with spouses over for a little XaFriendsgiving. It was super fun. Dana mixing up old fashioneds. There was no shortage of food - it was an amazing spread. Dana smoked a couple turkey breasts that turned out really well and the stuffing sausage bi...

Christmas 2025/New Years 2026

Christmas gift wrapping shenanigans: Keeping Brynn company while she wraps all of our Christmas gifts. Brynn and I couldn't help but peek at the 150 Famous Poems book we gave to Clara. So many good ones. Getting into the holiday spirit at Courts Plus. Ha! Christmas eve brunch. Clara's gingerbread house contest strategy notes. Contestants were allowed 20 minutes to shop for their houses at Wal-mart. We left ourselves little time to get ready for the 3:00 Christmas eve service at our church. But, we made it and thankfully didn't have to sit in the overflow area in the chapel! It was a beautiful service. We had bit more time in between church and when we planned to leave for Tessa's, so I mixed up my eggnog and we got the car packed. Tessa's family hosted Christmas eve at their lake home. We had a great mix of people to play a game of Mind the Gap. Getting cookies ready for Santa. Clara got Dana and me up around 7:30 and we watched her open her stocking. I think Dana a...
