Last Friday Dana went to his annual co-worker shooting afternoon. I think he had a good time. :-)
Clara was invited over to Adria's for a sleepover...in matching jams, of course.
Dana and I went back to 46th North Pints and Provisions and had another amazing dinner there.
After Clara's soccer game on Saturday, Amanda and I took Adria and Clara to the Buffalo River Pumpkin Patch. It was a perfect afternoon and they had so much fun there.
She will be confirmed at the end of her ninth grade year next year, so she will have another chance to go again, if she chooses.
Dana was excited to be making progress on restoring his old '51 truck that was his dad's. He has my uncle's old pick-up that he pulled the motor out of to use in the '51.
We've been able to spend a lot of time outside enjoying this unseasonably warm weather. Clara was pulling me in the wagon.
Playing a fierce game of Go Fish.
Brynn has really seemed to have grown up and matured so much in the past year in particular. It's hard to believe she'll be in high school next year. We are so proud of her. 💜

All the girls attending the retreat from all Hope campuses. |
They did get art club going at Brynn's school now so she has been going to that a couple of times a month. She sent me this from Thursday's meeting when they were making masks. Haha.
I love this narwhal picture Clara made.
We celebrated Grandpa's birthday last night out to eat in Perham. It was a really cool place and the food was excellent.
Grandma drove us back home as Dad and Grandpa are heading out this morning for their annual trip "up North" to go grouse hunting...well, Dad is just riding four-wheeler and not hunting. But Grandma is going to stay with us for a few days while they're gone.
Brynn had Grandma helping her re-set her sewing machine at 11:00 last night. :-)
We're looking forward to our 'day of rest' today, though it will be fun busy with church and Sunday School and the girls have a birthday party and a friend's house they're going to this afternoon. From the sounds of it, I'd better get start organizing for Christmas shopping. But before that even, Thanksgiving! Yay!
Clara was to have her last soccer game of the season yesterday, but it was raining all morning and she doesn't have cleats so we thought she might have a pretty difficult time with a wet field. And it was continuing to rain even through game time. We figured not many other girls would show up to play either. She had a great season and loved playing fall soccer. Thank you to everyone who came to watch her games! She appreciates the cheering, love and support! I am checking into winter soccer, perhaps still through Fargo Soccer Club, or also there is another club, Tri-City Soccer. Clara is still in her swim class at Foss and will continue that and then she has talked about starting up gymnastics again now that fall soccer is over, which I see the next session begins in November.
