Woke up on my home farm and headed over to Brandt Ridge to get the last of Moms stuff packed and brought to Kyle and Kim’s garage. We got her mail forwarded and dropped her taxes at her accountants office.

happy St Pattys!
I drive down to St James to help clean Moms assisted living apartment with Kyle, Kim and Joan. Then we took items to Kyle and Kim’s garage. Then Cory, Joan and I went to Moms place at Good Sam in Mountain Lake. We visited a while then walked Mom to dinner.
Coey, Joan and I all went to A & W for dinner. Then I went back to Moms to curl her hair. Kyle and Kim arrived and we visited some more. As Kyle and Kim left, Mom and I went for a nice long walk. We got her to bed and now I’m at Kurt’s for the night.
My plan is to head to Kyle and Kim’s to do some throwing and sorting for donation.

photo scavenger hunt
At confirmation tonight we had to do a photo scavenger hunt with our confirmation mentee. It was fun running around and finding different things in the church

warm up after a toe dip
It didn’t take a lot of arm twisting as my dear friend Julie called and asked if I’d meet for a stroll to the end of the Hudson Pier. I was inspired to dip my toes into the St. Croix. To warm up, we went to Pier 500 for a hot chocolate with rum chata and a chocolate bomb! It was a sweet treat.

spring forward
The clocks are set forward one hour. After church, Osten got a nice hair update. Then we lunched at Table on Main. Back home to do some cleaning and preparing for the week. As I was emptying the vacuum, Anders and Ally pulled in for a visit! Ended up being a pretty outstanding day.
Now I’m watching a movie and folding clothes, prepping for the final week before Spring Break.
celebration of Paige
On Saturday morning, Brad, Osten, Katie and I hit the road to shower the bride to be Paige with a bridal shower. Brad and Osten hung out with my brothers during the shower and Katie was with me.
Got to meet Paige’s Mom and see lots of friendly faces including Rosie Simonson, Clara Schenk, June Witte, Carol Sandbo, Marge Hansen, Nancy Braaten, Lisa Jacoby, Kaitie, Luella, Kim, Eden, Joan, Liana, Erica, Vivian and Summer Blomgren, Pat and Patrice Kubes, Sheila Pierson, Katie and Karen Olson and of course Paige and her Mom.
I did a devotional then we ate cupcakes, mints, nuts and fruit and had coffee, water or lemonade to drink. The centerpieces were sweet and the bride received several nice gifts. In just 5 weeks, she will be married! Such an exciting time.
