Weekend Wrap-Up
Hi everybody! We had a pretty chill weekend. Yesterday we were just hanging out at home until the girls went to Auntie Cat's house to hang out with her and go out to a bakery. I finished another puzzle, and then Chris and the girls went to take care of Murphy for a bit.
We decided this morning that we were READY to Christmas-ify our house! So the decorations bins came out of the basement and we did our thing.
For lunch I made the Corn and Leek Bisque again, and it was just as delicious (and spicy!) the 2nd time.
After lunch we headed to get our tree! This time from the TruValue just down the street. They had free cider and the girls were all about it. We got it home and worked on getting it fluffed to decorate later.
Meanwhile Callie helped me with the Christmas pots! All I had to do was put the basic greens in the back and she did all the other decorating herself.
Then she got to go to a T-Wolves game with Auntie Yoda!
Tonight we decorated the tree. We are ready for the holiday season!
Have a good week!

A Picture Update: Happy Birthday Mitchell!!
First up, Mitchell Man is THREE today!! Happy birthday! We love you.
And then we have other pics from the week.
Then…a sleepover at Boom's for Thanksgiving, which included early morning cupcake making.
Our first Thanksgiving was at Boom’s house. There was kid chaos, pretty decorations, and yummy food.
And lots of play time, resting, and FaceTiming Baby Avery!
Auntie Yoda made Oreo Cookie Pie!
And then later in the afternoon we had meal #2 plus Mitchell’s birthday party at Uncle Dan and Auntie Hanna’s! The food and decorations were also awesome.
There was more kid chaos, funny birthday souvenirs, and sparkly slippers.
And lots of attitude at the kids table!
Callie brought her homemade cupcakes for Mitchell's birthday party. They were a hit!
Then Mitchell opened his birthday presents!
The sweet little guy is fully of smiles and hugs.
Some more cousin playtime ended the very busy day!
Today we took it easy in the morning to recover. Then we met the Dahlens at the nature center for nature watching and a hike.
Then G-ma came over for a bit (and Luna got her bat ears out!) and the sky at sunset was lovely.
We ended the day with some snuggling and Masked Singer!
Have a great weekend!

Weekend Wrap-Up
Happy Sunday! We had a busy weekend.
Then Auntie Yoda, Lucy and Mila came over and there were some shenanigans under the bed.
We walked down to the Mill City Museum for something fun and different to do. It was a blast!
We also went up to the observation deck.
Today the girls cleaned a lot...and played and put up their little Christmas tree upstairs in the toy room. Maya went to hang out with our friends' cat.
I'll leave you with these crazy pictures Callie left on my phone. She also made them all rotating screensavers for my phone...which freaks me out every time. Ha.
Have a good Thanksgiving week!

A Picture Update
Happy Friday! The weeks are just flying by. Here are the pics!
Sunday night cousin chaos!
Monday snow and homemade vegetable curry.
Tuesday and Wednesday meant wine, more snow, and craziness while Chris was out of town in Texas.
Callie had a show choir concert on Thursdaynight, where we sat in the absolutely wrong location in the theater and barely saw her. This is one still I got from the video I took and it is as good as it got for being able to see her at all...but Luna was crystal clear on the couch later!
TGIF!
Have a lovely weekend. Stay warm!

Weekend Wrap-Up
Hi all! We had a chill weekend. There was some snow on our room on Saturday…as well as a new soup recipe and newly (re)pierced ears!
Then some relaxing, cards with Pa, and a margarita for me!
Today was a lazy morning and cousin chaos this afternoon! But for some reason my pictures are refusing to upload…so sorry for the technical difficulties but it is way past my bedtime. So cute cousin pics will have to come later this week…

A Picture Update
Hi all! It was another busy week. The sky on Monday was pretty cool...and we voted on Tuesday!
The big excitement from the week just happened...Callie found out (after her audition on Wednesday) that she got a role in the school musical Aladdin Jr.! She has the part of Isir, one of Jasmine's handmaids. Looks like she'll have some lines and maybe even some solo singing!
She is THRILLED. And I am relieved. :)
