So Many Movies!

By

It was a busy week of movies! I went to three movies in a one-week period. Yikes. Same theater for all three movies, and same seat for two of the movies, and exactly one row difference for the 3rd movie. The next movie will be coming up on April 13, and then I'll probably take a little break. Whew.

On Thursday night, I went to The Chosen, part 2 (three hours on a Thursday night after a long day of work and then barre class was a lot...not sure I could do it again. I'm grateful I can watch this again when it streams in a few months...I might have snoozed for a little bit!)


On the same night (Thursday), Ava and Aaron also went to the movies (Minecraft Movie.) I looked for Bernice and parked by her so she wasn't so lonely in the parking lot. :)


And then on Friday night, G, Steve, and I went to the Minecraft Movie. Fun times, and so much popcorn!


In other news, I made a great breakfast earlier this week...Greek yogurt and raspberry and lemon granola, along with avocado toast, topped with everything bagel seasoning. SO good!


And this kid lost two teeth within a 24-hour period! He received a LEGO set for the first one, and $1 for the other one. Slowly but surely, he's getting rid of those teefers!


Other than all of the movies, it was another busy week of school, work, LifeTime, and fun. This Saturday, we're watching Deb's pooch (Yental), while Deb moves to a new home. And my mom and I are headed to Cannon Falls for a girls getaway day. We are so fortunate to be close to family!

Exploring Local Places

By
Last Sunday was the perfect day to explore an area that neither Arya nor I had been to before. We headed east to walk around the Vermillion Falls/River and Greenway area. The path was nicely paved, with lots of overhead shade from trees; there were so many families out on bikes and walking, and we had a nice view of the Vermillion River. Arya got some great pics, and I enjoyed spending time outdoors with my sweet girl. This weekend, G and I will be heading out to explore a creek area in a few towns just south of us. And I've already got an idea for another creek I want to walk by next month (it's a bit further away, and I'd rather put that aside until Arya is off at college) The tree leans to find the sun On the way home, we stopped at the DQ in another town (we have a love/hate relationship with the DQ in our town, so I wanted to avoid it.) The warm weather felt great, and we enjoyed some sweet treats while watching the world drive by. We're counting down the days unti...

What a Week

By
The weather has been unseasonably warm this fall, so we've been able to extend our outdoor projects just a bit.  This past week Scott's been working in the garden, cleaning everything out, and repairing the back wall of our garage.  Ava was such a good little helper, scooping up dirt, but still trying to keep her hands clean while doing it! I swear, a box is all she needs to make her happy. Princess Darla. Princess Darla has had enough.  I personally like how she and Ava have the same expressions in this picture. Apparently Spanky was bored - check out that yawn in the background! We went down to Grand Meadow this weekend, and as always, it was so fun to see Ava and Isabel play together.  They actually had several little conversations with each other - and they were so polite while doing so!  We even had them share a room last night...boy, that was a challenge.  I think they finally fell asleep around 10:00pm.  And of course, Ava wa...

Preparing for Vacation

By
We had a low key week, which is rare in this house. Oh sure, there were fun field trips at Summer Power, a visit to the splash pad on a hot day, and a few crazy, rain storms, but it was an easy week. Well, there was that one time when we were out for dinner with G (Ava was with Grandma Karen and Grandpa Doug for an overnight stay and a trip to the Dakota County Fair - fun!) and G decided to hide behind my chair and puke all over me and the floor (at the restaurant.) Ugh. The good news is that he was just too full of chocolate milk...no illness! A quiet week, once in a while, is an okay thing! We're starting to prep for our vacation to the Wisconsin Dells...we don't take too many family vacations, so this is a big event for us. (Funny, I took a break from writing this post as Scott just asked me about planning a trip to Disney...we were debating the differences between going to California vs. Florida...pros and cons to each!) Yesterday, I showed G a video from one of the wat...
