Mother's Day

What a wonderful Mother's Day!

Earlier in the week Brynn had sent me this collage of a photo for each year since she's been born of her and me together. 💜💜  


Since we saw my mom on Saturday we gave her our gift from us then. 

Post-church photo. 

After we got changed from church, we headed for Dead Lake and met Holly and Kevin for lunch in Erhard. Mothers got a free dessert. Yay us!

We brought some ATVs with and went riding around Pickerel Lake nearby. It was a beautiful day out.

Thanks to Brynn for always being my driver. :-)



We headed back to Fargo in time for dinner at Plaza Azteca - the new location is now open which is close by our house. Yay! The fam dropped me off with my iPad so I could read and sip a mule while I waited for our table. Not long after they brought me some chips to snack on at the bar, our table was ready and Dana and the girls came over to join me.


Dana got our deck furniture out so we were able to enjoy some time out there while I opened my gifts. Clara made me a coaster at school. It featured a small scene from the time my Fatty cat brought that innocent little bunny rabbit into our 38th Avenue house. LOL. Clara wasn't even born yet when that happened so I'm not sure where that came from to add it onto the coaster, but I loved it all the same!

I also got a new pair of shoes that I wanted and this cap that I'm sporting in the picture. Brynn designed my card in Illustrator which turned out so neat. Dana's card made me cry.

I am so thankful for our mothers and for my girls. 💓


Brynn chillin' on the deck with Jesus.

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...

Easter + April Birthdays

 The girls had Thursday, Friday and Monday off from school for the Easter break. So, Dana and I took most of the same time off (work) to match.  Always reading. 💜 Hanging out with Brynn. 💗 Dana and I went on a Costco date. We tried our hand at homemade ravioli again. I think it went a bit more smoothly compared to last time. Hubert's sister Abby stopped by for a visit. We hadn't seen her in a long time and so it was fun to have her We celebrated Dana's birthday and kicked it off with some Sandy's donuts. I don't recall what was so funny. haha. Clara's card. Birthday King Clara dyed eggs. I baked a birthday cake for Dana, messed it up getting it out of the pans, and Clara somehow cobbled it together into a masterpiece. Dana chose Lucky 13's for dinner out. On Saturday we packed up to hit up Oliver's birthday party before we went on to Dead Lake for Easter. Oliver is 9! Photo Cred: Grandma Wanda In a shocking turn of events, most of the kids ended up in ...

January + Valentine's Day + CATS!

We ARE still alive over here and have not frozen to death. Here's what we've been up to for the past month and a half! Brynn and Hubert at the OG (Olive Garden): 'Lady and the Tramp' style. haha. Taking in a Force game...with extra fighting. It was very exciting. One Sunday when Clara was at a sleepover, the three of us went to Black Coffee Waffle Bar after church and then for some crepes and boba at Tea & Crepe. Then Brynn and I went prom dress shopping which was really fun. She did find a dress she loves so that was a relief. This is not the one she chose, but she tried on quite a few nice ones. Clara made crowns for the king and I (me). Clara had to write an essay to be considered for the robotics team at school. She waited for at least a couple of weeks to learn if she was accepted, and unfortunately was not. She was pretty disappointed, but she does have a chance to reapply next year when she's a fifth grader, and won't have to write another essay. I th...
