Weekend Wrap-Up

Hello! We are busy with school preparations. But here are the pics from the weekend! 

Yesterday morning the girls and I went to the state fair with Boom! It was a great time!

Today we got a lot accomplished at home and rewarded ourselves with a deck dinner with Pa and Auntie Cat!

School year 2022-2023 here we gooooooooo!!!!!

A Picture Update

TGIF!  Happy Friday.  I am so tired, but made it through the first three days back to work.  Here are the pics from the week!

On Monday I finished a puzzle and the girls hung out with Auntie Cat.  Callie also used tape and nail polish to create fake nails...

On Monday night we did some snuggling.

On Tuesday the girls both had their annual check-ups and then we met Boom at Minnehaha Falls for a short hike.

Later we met the Dahlens at the beach!

I went back to work on Wednesday, and Chris had a busy day at work, so the girls spent Wednesday with Boom and Mila!

On Thursday we went to the Dahlen's house for dinner and then I FaceTimed with my mom and sisters because MARI IS HAVING HER BABY SO SOOOOOON!!!!

Today the girls hung out with Boom and went to the History museum and out to lunch!

Take care and have a lovely weekend.

Timehop Tuesday: A Summer Review

Hi all! Since today is my last official day of summer, I thought I’d do a “Timehop” back to each month and pick out 9 of my fave pics from June, July and August.

JUNE!

JULY!

AUGUST!

And just for fun…a 10 week progression of Chris’ “summer beard.”

Weekend Wrap-Up

Hey all.  We had a lovely weekend.  

On Saturday morning I had my 5 mile race!  It went much better than I expected...my goal was 50-60 minutes, and I came in (unofficially) at 49:42! I had some great cheerleaders as well.

Later I enjoyed a lunch with various drinks, the girls went to help Auntie Cat clean out all her boundary waters gear, and I napped with Luna. Sort of.

Then we got out the slip-n-slide (and added dish soap!) and had a deck dinner...just the four of us.

This morning was another beautiful day, so we met Pa, Auntie Hanna, Uncle Dan, Mitchell and Isla at Centennial Lakes for a walk and lunch!

And this afternoon we met Boom, Auntie Yoda, Uncle Craigles, Lucy and Mila at the beach.

And then went back to Yoda and Craigles' house for dinner and birthday cake..Craig's birthday is tomorrow!  

Happy (early) Birthday Uncle Craigles!  We hope you have a fantastic day (tomorrow).

Have a great week!

Summer Update: Week 10

Well guys, here we are.  The final (full) week of summer vacation (for me) is over.  The girls have one more full week, but I go back on Wednesday.  We have a busy Monday and Tuesday with getting in the last appointments and errands.  But hopefully we'll get in one last paddle board beach outing before Wednesday.  That's my goal!  

Anyway...here are highlights from the week.

On Monday morning Callie woke up and created a big scavenger hunt for Maya.  And I chose a coffee mug VERY intentionally.  Even though it was cool and cloudy, we decided to head to the beach for a paddle.

While the girls and Chris were at Lunds on Sunday night, they conned him into getting ice cream AND ice cream cones...like the daily ones we got at camp!

On Tuesday we met the Dahlen's at the pool for one final afternoon/evening.  We stayed until 7pm closing time.

On Wednesday morning the girls and I were busy shopping for school clothes.  I went in to work for a few meetings and then met a friend for an early afternoon happy hour.  

Yesterday we met Boom at the MIA! Maya was given a scavenger hunt to do and found dancing sculptures, so she and Boom replicated them.  Ha!

We spent a quiet evening at home.  Callie made a smoothie, Luna watched the rain, and Maya took a selfie with me.

This morning there was a beautiful double rainbow on my my morning walk with Luna.  I couldn't stop taking pictures of it.

The girls did some cleaning and chores and then headed to Boom's house for another sleepover.

I saw a rainbow again tonight while at happy hour with  Jenna!

Have a lovely weekend! Send good vibes tomorrow at 9am…my 5 mile race will be underway! 

Timehop Tuesday

Another DuNord Timehop today!

Weekend Wrap-Up

Happy Sunday!  We had a lovely weekend.  Here are some highlights:

More wedding fun from Friday night!

More fun at Boom's house!

It had been awhile since we had had any cousin time!

Callie’s show choir performed at Bloomington Pride! See the video later for some snippets. It was adorable. 

I ran my final “long run” this morning (I have a 5 mile race on Saturday that I don't feel super prepared for but it will be ok and/or fine), Maya reading in the car, and fun with the other cousins!

Then we got to meet the new puppy MURPHY!

The girls and Chris met Pa for dinner while I met my friend Adrea.

Here are some videos from the past week!

Summer Update: Week 9

Happy Friday!  Another summer week has flown by.  Here are the pictures!

Here are a few from Saturday and Sunday I didn't post because I wanted to keep it a duNord post.  Luna got some love, Cal and I decompressed from vacation, and we virtually met Jeremy and Jennifer's brand new (they got it Sunday, the day after we all got home from camp!) PUPPY.

On Monday the girls and I went school supply shopping and then spent the afternoon at the pool!

On Tuesday morning I got in a lovely 4 mile run.

And then we met Boom at the beach!

Later Maya played outside and Chris and I went and voted in the primary election.

On Wednesday Maya and I walked to the park and then we met Jennifer and the kids back at the pool.

Yesterday the girls and I went to the zoo!

And then just hung out at home.

Today I dropped the girls off at Boom's house for a sleepover.  No one was excited about it at all...HA! ;)

Chris and I went to his co-worker's wedding tonight.  I was excited for an excuse to dress up and have some fancy fun!

Take care and have a great weekend!
