Ponytails!

By
We had a successful trip to Kids Hair this past weekend...I had been telling Scott how Ava cried and cried every time I took her to get her hair cut.  So, of course, the one time he comes along, she's perfectly fine.  Frankly, whatever it takes works for me! 

In fact, Ava was so sedated by Scooby Doo and a sucker, that she even let the hair dresser put two ponytails in her hair!  I know I'm biased, but I think she looks so darn cute!  I'm pretty sure that neither she nor I will be that patient when I attempt this 'do in the future!






Ava had a great weekend with Grandma Deb and Grandpa Whitey...they played in the snow, did taste testing for the Superbowl party, and kept each other out of trouble! 

In the meantime, Scott and I had a very nice 24 hours to hang out - we went out to dinner, then to the Winter Carnival Vulcan Victory Dance on Saturday night.  On Sunday, we managed to squeeze in a movie before heading over to Deb and Whitey's house for the Superbowl party.  It was a great, fun-filled weekend!  Just what we needed after a very busy few weeks!

Snuggly Warm

It's the time of year to be cozy, so there's nothing better than sitting in front of a warm fire, reading a good book/watching a good show, and enjoying the glow of the Christmas tree. Even Pria thinks so! Pria was avoiding the vacuum earlier this week...she loves to be on Ava's bed! Getting cozy inside of a little fortress After a fairly busy week at school, work, and extracurricular activities, we all enjoyed a night at home on Friday. G and I built gingerbread houses (they both look a little sad, but we had fun), and then we all played Tractoropoly for a few hours. Turns out that G was stockpiling money, so we need to figure out his secret on how to save! Love Ava's face and hand placement here And we can't forget all of the treats that George brought this week! Sunday, December 10 "Can you get a bullseye?" Monday, December 11 "I'm brining Christmas Cheer, by singing loud for everyone to hear!" Tuesday, December 12 "Don't be the o

Barbie & George

By
We had a fun week to wrap up November. Last Saturday, Scott and I enjoyed a nice dinner out, and then a spontaneous trip to Home Depot...and we got some new exterior Christmas décor! But more important was the time spent together. Plus, it started to snow, so the view from the restaurant was beautiful (but the drive home was a little sketchy.) On Tuesday night, Ava and I headed out to the Mall of America to experience the Malibu Barbie Café. We had a blast exploring the area, eating the yummy food, and then shopping for a bit. It was a wonderful night evening spent together. Even the drinks were pretty! My Avocado Toast & salad Ava's Paradise Pancakes On Friday night, my book club gathered for our holiday party and it was a blast! We had such a good time chatting, eating, drinking, and finished off the night with a book exchange. I cherish and deeply appreciate the friendships that have developed with my neighbors because of this book club. And to really kick off the holiday se

State Fair 2023

By
The end of summer is officially here (although, not by calendar standards, as G likes to point out.) The Minnesota State Fair 2023 kicked off on Thursday, and we were there to cheer on the RHSMB. Per tradition, they were the first band in the parade on the first day - what an honor! We're so used to long parades, that when the whole thing was past us in less than 15 minutes, it was a little shocking. Due to copyright issues, I can't post any video of the band online, but trust me, they were great! We ate the perfect amount of fair food that we weren't stuffed, and since it was opening day, it was a little less crowded than the weekends (which was a great thing for us.) G did so well this year, and didn't complain or beg for anything. Now that he's older, it's much easier to bring him places like this, and we can all enjoy it. We even managed to meet up with my friend Emilie who was there for a work event. It was great to catch up for a few minutes, and take a br
