Spring Break

Dana took a little spring break trip of his own last week with his uncles and cousins to Yellowstone to go snowmobiling. He had a great time and sounds like they had really nice weather.

The girls had all of this past week off of school for their spring break, but ended up having last Thursday and Friday off as well so school staff could get vaccinated for COVID. They went to Grandpa and Grandma Froemmings' for most of that time, coming home for a break in between.

This is a little out of order, but last Sunday I pulled Clara in the bike trailer down to Lions Conservancy Park just off of University. It was a bit farther down than I had remembered, but the wind carried me back at least.

She's getting too big for the trailer, but it's still nice to be able to use it with her as it would have been too far for her to ride her own bike. And snacks, of course. :-)

I also got my make-up done.

I had to pick up a St. Patrick's Day cookie decorating kit from Jen's Bakery....which included dinosaurs. We couldn't figure out what they had to do with St. Patrick's Day. Ha!

I got a different type of Ninja blender that is also a food processor and smoothie maker. I absolutely love it; it's so fun to use. The first thing I made in it (but didn't take any pics of) was a Dole Whip that tasted just like the kind you get at Disney World.

And then I put some crackers, bread crumbs and milled flax in the food processor to make a coating for my chicken tenders and that worked really well also.

I don't know if the girls had too much togetherness during their first stint at Grandpa and Grandma's or what because they came home in quite a fighting fit. By the time they were getting ready to head back for another stay at Grandpa and Grandma's, they were singing Disney movie tunes to each other to guess which movie they were from while they were waiting to get picked up. 😌

Dana got a work bonus so we went out to our new favorite Mexican restaurant to celebrate.

Fresh guac! Mmmm. Everything is so delicious there.

Brynn did lots of four-wheeling this past week. Totally Dana's daughter here. :-)

I had taken yesterday off to spend with Clara after she came back home ahead of Brynn so Brynn could have some time by herself at Grandpa and Grandma's. She challenged me to a game of Scrabble...or Scramble as she kept calling it.

It was such a gorgeous day out that she was able to spend most of the afternoon (after we got back from doing some furniture shopping).

Look out now! Daddy taught her how to drive this four-wheeler and she loves to tear around the yard on it. She often forgets to put it in neutral or turn it off (or sometimes she's not even completely stopped) before she gets off of it. But, otherwise she does really well with it.
