Beginning of Spring

 Brynn has been making mug cakes lately - so yummy.

A couple of weekends ago Elise came to stay with us - both girls had so much fun hanging with her.

They watched Cinderella, I think it was, in Brynn's room.

They made a really yummy apple spice snack cake that didn't last very long around here.



That same weekend Adria was over to play too.






The planetarium at MSUM (my old alma mater!) was holding a space show and I know how much Clara loves space, so we took that in one Sunday afternoon. She had already been to the planetarium once with her class and has been wanting to go back.





Old Brynn. :-) 

My sister captures the most amazing photos of the Northern Lights. 😍



Got my co-workers good for April Fools. 😂

Clara trying to serve Dad his coffee on Saturday morning.



Twinning!





Brynn's cooking session of her FACS (Family and Consumer Sciences) class wrapped up and now they will be moving onto sewing after a career section. They did make quite a few good recipes, including this pretzel.

Clara was sad on Sunday afternoon because her friends were busy, so Brynn was comforting her.

So, the three of us went to the playground at Clara's school to play after dinner.

Ha - not sure what that face was for.



Playing 'Magic.'

My new fav pic of Brynn - except that she looks so old. :-( 

Clara made some brownies from her cookbook.


My morning exercise group has a Facebook group and since it's Prom season, we were sharing our past prom pics. I remember this gem well!

And here it is again! We dressed up in our formal wear for our dance class on Wednesday morning. I didn't last too long in the dress before I had to shed it and just wear my normal work out clothes that I had on underneath.

Great pictures! Thanks so much for inviting Elise over - she had a great time. Haha, the picture of Dana & Brynn throwing up deuces. Elise's FACS class must be on the same timeline as Brynn's! They also just finished up foods and are working on sewing now. They're each sewing a pair of pajama shorts.

Oh man, I hear all about the game Magic on the playground at our school, too.

Brynn does look so grown-up in that photo! Love Clara's fleece pullover, so cute.

I remember that prom dress! You're still beautiful as ever!

More Graduations + Start of Summer

A couple of weekends ago Clara had a very busy, but fun Saturday with her friend Cora and her sister, Violet. The sisters' dad took them to the Breakfast on the Farm near Hawley (We had gone many years ago. Clara was so little, she didn't remember it.)   They also stopped at the dirt track races on their way back into town and then Dana met up with them at MSUM so they could go to the oceanarium there. We had never been before, but it was on our "Moorhead List" of fun things to do in the 56560 zip code. So, check! Out on side-by-side rides any chance we get. We parked on Sunset Road, as we've dubbed it, to watch the sun go down. There is usually one or two other cars parked on this low maintenance road whenever we venture down there. Clara into her granny hobbies. :-) We attended the last of this year's graduation parties over the weekend. I went to one in town on Friday night and then Clara and I stopped at Karlie's party near Fergus Falls on our way to Z...

Fourth of July 2025

We were able to spend the Fourth at Tamarac again this year, with my sister and her family.  We arrived just in time for Brynn to change into her tennis outfit for the boat parade float. Their theme was sports this year. Clara and Oliver caught candy from the dock. This was the first Fourth of July holiday spent at my sister and Chad's own cabin on the same lake that Chad's parents have their cabin. Clara brought my mom one of her favs, Tootsie Roll. We were also celebrating Mom's freedom this holiday...from working on the Fourth! For the past how many years, Mom has had to work the Fourth of July parade back home in Carrington. However, this year as she is preparing to retire and training in her replacement, she gave the parade reins to her successor. It was great to have both Mom and Dad spend the Fourth with all of us together. It was just like old times when we all gathered at Terry and Wanda's for lunch though. I made a new recipe for dessert: red, white and blue c...

Reagan Graduation + MDW + Tennis

This past weekend our oldest niece, Reagan, graduated high school. She will be attending UND for nursing in the fall. We're so proud of you and love you so much, Reagan!   Cousin Cayden had his Italian soda bar set up at the party which was super fun and a big hit. She opened a few gifts the night before her commencement. Reagan is the third generation to graduate from Harvey High as my mom and her dad, Chad also attended there. This was such a fun gift idea that Tessa put together from her and Chad. We got back home Sunday evening and between the four of us doing different things, spent most of Memorial Day outside. It was such beautiful weather. Brynn and I played tennis and Dana and Clara replaced some shrubs and did yardwork. The tennis season has wrapped up for Brynn now. She's sad to not be playing anymore, but still gets some court time between playing with friends and sometimes Clara and/or me. We're so proud of her and glad she played again this year. I had taken s...
