We can back from a 20 point deficit in the third quarter to beat the Denver Nuggets 98-90. We will be facing Dallas on Wednesday at the Target Center. Let’s go Wolves! 

happy graduation Joe!

We celebrated cousin Joes high school graduation! Congratulations as you head to UWEC to run Cross Country and study biology. 




boating on the St Croix

On Friday, I went boating with long time friends, the Bixby’s and Julie on the St Croix. We had a wonderful time and just beat a rain storm back to port.

115-70!

Game 6 of the Timberwolves Nuggets series was so fun to watch. The Timberwolves were firing on all cylinders. I got to see the game at a sports bar in Woodbury with my dear friend Julie. She was so kind to stay with me and endure my wild cheering and clapping!

Sharyl power


Today I wore a pair of pants gifted to me by a friend who moved away a few years ago. I felt her strength as we’re heading into the last few weeks of school. 

sweet little Leon



Here’s sweet baby Leon growing and looking like he will continue to improve and be ready to head home to his little farm.

happy Mother’s Day

What a picture perfect day! Started with a walk with friends Michelle, Angie and Sarah where we saw a bull snake at Kelly Creek. Next, online Ezekiel church service and out to brunch with Osten at Starbucks. Next we shopped for food for a class project on Pakistan. We got naan, hummus and a papaya. 

Home to plant flowers and stay cool! It got up to 80 degrees. Anders called and dropped in to deliver a plant and say happy Mother’s Day. ❤️. I called my Mom and Betty and Brad called me from the cabin. Osten and I went for a hike by the Kinni. 

Katie got home from work and we went to Mariachi after I took a much needed shower. After dinner we drove to a little nursery so Katie could pick out some flowers to plant. 

Now we’re home and the Timberwolves are down by 13…looks like the series will be tied 2-2.

another W for the Eagles

Osten’s flag football team is undefeated. They played a tough Chiefs team today and won by quite a margin. 




Then Osten and I went to Crisp and Green to have lunch made by Katie. Then I went out to buy my Mother’s Day flowers. Home to shower and go shopping with Katie for her graduation dress. Fun day with two of my amazing children. 




northern lights

A huge light show last night and tonight here in the US and probably around the world. I saw a little in our back yard, but others in RF saw much more. Here are some photos:
