Easter 2018: Before, During and After


Bubbles!


Brynn had off of school Thursday through Monday, so both girls went to Grandpa and Grandma Froemming's house ahead of us for the holiday on Wednesday. Grandma had a surprise or something fun for them to do each day that they were there. Brynn was surprised by a couple of her friends. Their grandparents know Kevin and Holly and live nearby. Brynn spent a summer at Hope with these girls and they became fast friends. Brynn was surprised when she realized one day after talking to the girls that both grandparents live in Fergus!



 Dana and I ended up going to his parents' earlier than planned due to the impending weather. Upon arrival, we found the Easter Bunny. (I guess the EB likes cookies!)



Playing Connect Four with Daddy Saturday morning.





Of course the girls had decorated Grandma's Easter tree.



Time to dye eggs!












The girls opened up their Easter gifts from Grandpa and Grandma on Saturday.






Grandpa and Grandma have had a lot of deer visiting lately.






Even the church had fun with Easter falling on April Fools. The girls received 'donut seeds' when they went up for the children's sermon. ;-)

 

The Easter Bunny came whilst we were at church.

 Wrastlin' tonight back at home. "Somebody's gonna get hurt!" ;-) Nobody did...maybe Daddy though.

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...

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...

Clara's 11th Birthday

Clara celebrated her 11th birthday with a disco themed party with her friends and musical party with family. Happy birthday, Clara Rae! We love you! Brynn baked and decorated Clara's family party cake while Clara decorated the cupcakes she and I baked for her friend party. Dana and Clara turned the back garage into a discotheque and Clara made up a playlist for Dana to use when he was DJing.   I made her birthday baked oats the morning of her birthday. Brynn did an incredible job on the cake! After her own party, Clara was off to another one for her friend Elizabeth.  On Sunday Clara wanted to go to The Olive Garden for her birthday dinner out. They gave her a whole container of mints just for her. Ha.
