February: First Half

Last Friday night Clara and I found ourselves back at Blackbird, per her request. It was delish as usual.

Had to stop at Scoop-N-Dough (South Fargo location) for dessert afterward.

Dana and Brynn went up to a Bemidji State Beavers hockey game on Friday and came back on Saturday. I love this pic of them.

Clara was busy back in the kitchen again this past week. She was making a coffee-cake type muffin. She didn't end up caring for them very much.

On Saturday we celebrated Elise's birthday at Detroit Mountain where I skied with her and some of the other kids and Brynn tubed. Clara had a classmate's birthday party that she attended, so she stayed in Fargo with Dana. It was a super fun day.

We hit up Zorbaz for post-skiing and tubing eats.

And ended the day at Grandpa and Grandma's lake for cake. Happy birthday, Elise! We love you.

On Sunday Tessa took the girls shopping.

While Brynn was out shopping, Clara did more baking.

She tried her hand at cornbread for dinner that night. I'm not usually a very big cornbread fan, but this did turn out really good.

We had to hit up Snow Mountain for a bit in the afternoon.

I was not familiar with this 'game,' but love when the girls start doing it. I think mostly because it means they're doing something together and getting along. :-) I guess it's called Concentration. I had never seen them do it together before last week, but somehow they both knew exactly what it was and how to play it.

The girls ended up having a snow day on Friday.

We accepted a last-minute invitation from Dana's co-worker friend to attend a UND hockey game with them last night. It was my first Hawks hockey game and was really fun.

Both Kaily and Alex are UND alumni, so they took us to their old stompin' grounds after the game.

Completely random, but I noticed this Virgil Hill poster at Judy's and made Dana take my picture with it. I met Virgil Hill in person when I was in high school. If you don't know him, he's a fairly unknown boxer. :-) Haha.
