Birthdays Celebration

On Tuesday Brynn had her first guitar lesson using my mom's guitar that she gave to Brynn. I got such a kick out of the instructor's wall o' posters, I had to take a pic of it. Colin seems like he'll be a great teacher. We told Brynn to see how she feels after a few more lessons to make sure she wants to continue.

Daddy and the girls toiled for two nights this week making my favorite cupcakes for my birthday.

They turned out so good!

Tessa came all the way up to Fargo to have lunch with me for my birthday! We tried out Rosey's downtown which had excellent sandwiches. I would definitely go back there again. We played the 90s trivia game that Tessa gave me for my birthday whilst we were there. It's a super fun game and probably one of the few trivia games that I have any sort of chance at.

We had time for a quick trip to Scoop N Dough after lunch. Sooo good.

The girls looked to pretty to go out to eat.

Later on Friday Dana's family came for the weekend to celebrate both of our birthdays together. After dinner we got together in the yard for some pics.

Finally digging into those cupcakes! Very tasty!

We opened our gifts before cupcakes and I received this sweet apron from Christel and John and my meowgical face mask from Holly and Kevin.

On Saturday night my parents had us and Cindy and Carey out to the lake for a nice dinner and cake. Here we come 38!

Dana and I sure felt the love this birthday. Thank you to everyone who sent us cards, gave us gifts, love, food and more! Love you all.

It was chilly out today, but Dana and the girls spent most of the day outside as Dana was working on some landscaping projects and the girls were playing. They also got the potatoes and onions planted in the garden.

Fall Things + Dana's Hunting Trip

Clara and I walked over to the high school for a boys' soccer game. They were pretty impressive to watch. Elise and Clara had fun raking leaves and Grandpa and Grandma's lake. Well, I know Clara had a great time for sure. I can't remember if I had posted that Dana did away with the garden and planted grass where it once was. So, Clara mowed that section. It was a perfect size for her to tackle. She might have found herself a summer job already. An amazing double rainbow! Thank you to those who donated for Clara's school walk-a-thon which took place last Monday. Dana and I were able to go watch and then joined in for some laps as well. Benny the Eagle was out there cheering the kids on too. Dana was busy making monster cookies for his annual hunting trip up north with his Dad and family friends. He kindly left some behind for us...which are long since gone now. :-) Grandma Holly came up while the guys were gone and took Clara shopping and the girls for lunch on Saturday

Thanksgiving 2023

The kids rolled out and baked sugar cookies for Thanksgiving. We finished our thankful pumpkin. I saw this in the store and given the season, it took me right back to my Grandma D's house on Thanksgiving and the bowl of walnuts she'd have on her table with the nutcracker. I wanted to buy it just for nostalgia purposes. Cora and Clara made these adorable turkey crafts at the crafternoon at the library. On Tuesday we went downtown for the tree lighting at Broadway Square. Abby, Hubert's sister, joined us as well. She just turned 10, so she got along pretty well with Clara. They had s'mores kits so we had to toast some mallows right away. I love how Clara's marshmallow is completely ablaze and she's still posing for the photo. Hahaha. We had to visit the reindeer too. I made them do jazz hands. And then, of course, we had to hit up Blackbird afterward. Our Wednesday morning XaBeat class. We were feelin' pretty festive. The girls had Wednesday off from school,

May Day + My Birthday + Star Wars Day

Brynn put together our May Day baskets and did a fantastic job. Clara and I did the deliveries... And we received one as well with these beautiful flowers. It was from Clara's friend, Cora, and her fam. We went out to dinner as a family to celebrate my birthday on Wednesday to best accommodate schedules this week. I got to open my cards and gifts when we got home. I had picked up a slice of puppy chow cake at Sonder Bakehouse so we all shared that. Then Brynn and I went out to play a little tennis. It was a beautiful day outside. I had taken Friday (my actual birthday) off of work and Tessa came up to have brunch with me. We had Black Coffee + Waffle Bar. It was so fun. Then May did my hair as it was overdue for a cut and color. Dana and I were able to go out just us two while Brynn took Clara to her school fun night...not only that, but Brynn also volunteered to sell tickets/wristbands (I was originally going to do it) so that I didn't have to and could go out. 💜 I had a coup
