Fourth of July Week 2024

 I think I missed posting this photo earlier, but on our way out to Lake Park, we first stopped at this Black Cat Bakery in Moorhead to check it out. I had put it on our summer bucket list. We picked up some yummy treats.


I was on a bike ride one evening and was rushing to get back as it looked like some weather coming in.

Brynn and Hubert road tripped to Dead Lake and visited with Grandpa and Grandma Froemming and did some fishing. 



We spent the Fourth and Fifth at Tamarac with the Weckerly side. We had such a fun time.

I tried making some festive drinks for Tessa and me and they didn't quite turn out as I had hoped. Sorry, Tessa! 






Uncle Dana took the kids back to Fargo to load up on fireworks and they put on a very nice show with what they got.

Brynn and Hubert were able to come out on the Fifth with us, which was an even nicer day for being on the water.










We had a good game of Nerts going and Zorbaz for dinner.




And then back out for more swimming...






We squeezed in the annual photo of auntie Tessa, Clara and Prairie. Clara and Prairie sure seem older this year especially as they both turn 10 next month.

On Saturday we had the Froemming get-together at Dead Lake. It was a beautiful day until the monsoon struck, but we still all had a good time visiting with lots of good food.




Dana just can't help himself with this pose.






Fish and turtle fry!

Yay, what fun! That is a great picture of Brynn & Clara with their life jackets on. Love, love, love the picture with Clara & Prairie - can you send that to me? Looks like fun at Dead Lake, though I'm not sure about the turtle! :)

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!

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...
