It was a busy week! Chris was at a work conference in Vegas so it was just the girls. We had a Lynx game, some shopping, Luna shenanigans and Maya and her BFF.

Have a good weekend!

Weekend Wrap-Up

Happy Monday! We had a great long weekend.  I forgot to post that on Friday Maya hung out with G-ma, Mitchell and Isla. 

On Saturday Chris took the girls to the MN United Soccer game (Maya was the only one who sent me a pic). 

And I got to go to the T-wolves game with Laura to watch them wallop OKC! 


We spent a lot of time outside yesterday doing yard work, playing with fire AND water. 

The sunrays were bananas this morning! 

We had lunch at the Dahlen’s house and played some

Bball and the kids hung on the trampoline. 

Have a good week!

Not too many pics but it was a busy week, including 2 Lynx games, Mitchell’s pre-k graduation, and a happy hour!

Timehop Tuesday

Hello! I have a couple fun ones today.

First up, TWO BABIES.

And then long haired girls catching T-shirts at Lynx games! 

Weekend Wrap-Up

Hello! It was a big weekend around here. 

Yesterday afternoon we headed to Orchestra Hall for a chamber music concert. One of the pieces was commissioned in memory of my dad. My parents’ friend Holly wrote a poem about him a few years ago, and then buried a composer to set it to music. It was one of the featured pieces of the concert yesterday and it was beautiful. 

After the concert we were invited to a small reception with some of the musicians and they set out some photos and articles from the time my dad helped the Orchestra with the lockout back in 2012. It was very special, and a wonderful tribute to him. 




Today the girls and Chris finally got to meet Carter!!!! We had a big family gathering, including Uncle Larry and Aunt Mary! The kids all played and I got some good baby snuggles. 

It has happy chaos! 

Have a lovely week.

TGIF!!! We had a good week. On Monday we celebrated Pa’s birthday at our house!

On Tuesday the girls, Auntie Hanna and I went to see Katy Perry. The concert was delayed for over an hour so it was a late night, but we had a blast! 

And as usual, we have some Luna pics! 

Tonight was the regular season opener for the Lynx in Dallas!!!! Go Lynx!!!

Have a great weekend!

Weekend Wrap-Up

Happy Sunday! We had a lovely weekend. On Saturday morning I woke up to a pretty sunrise on the late before heading home. 

After I got home, we headed to Hillcrest Carnival for an afternoon of fun! Chris even donated some homemade fly fishing hooks to their silent auction. 


Pa, Max, Mitchell, Isla, Dan and Hanna joined us too!


Later we relaxed at home and enjoyed the beautiful spring weather. 


I didn’t really get any pics today- we did a lot of cleaning and yard work, Maya went to G-ma’s and Callie had work. 

Happy May! 

A Picture update

Hey all! Happy Friday! 

On Tuesday we met Auntie Hanna, Mitchell and Isla for a nice walk at Centennial Lakes. We ended up seeing Pa and Max too! 

Wednesday, April 30th, my mom and I went to Lakewood Cemetery and walked around for an hour. We ended up seeing a ribbon tree, so we wrote on a ribbon for my dad and added it to the tree. 

Then we went to lunch and back to my mom’s to look through things from the funeral (cards, articles, guestbook, etc). She also still has one of his suits, so we got that out as well. 

On Thursday Maya finally had another track meet. Two of them have been cancelled due to weather since her first one! 

While Chris was at the meet, I made my way to Lakewoods Resort in Wisconsin for a solo trip for a couple nights! My goal was just to relax, read, learn to crochet, and eat good food. I made soup last night. 

Today was super rainy so I went to breakfast in the lodge, spent time at the pool/sauna/hot tub area, and did some more crocheting. 

Once it stopped raining I made it out for a little hike!

Then it was happy hour!

Chris held down the fort with the girls and their various activities, and I’m grateful to have some relaxation and down time! 

Have a great weekend.
