lucky day

I got my Wordle in one today!!!!

Also see that sweet Collins started preschool today, Osten had a football game and learned that John 

Black from Days of Our Lives died! 

4-0 baby

Vikings fans cheered throughout the land when they defeated the Green Bay Packers 31-29 at Lambeau Field. One of my Packer friends made fun of us for acting like we won the Super Bowl, but my comment was we have to take small victories and make the most of it!

Osten went to Children’s sermon today because our friend Marci asked him too (what a sweetheart). I won a great prize later in the day at Marci’s Bunco party. 

It was a great day! 

hiking and gala

September Saturdays are very special! I went hiking with Angie & Michelle at Willow. Then in the evening Brad and I attended an art gala for cousin Dionne at St. Thomas campus. Dionne did a terrific Jo be of being a featured speaker. 

new life

 

Anders and Osten outgrew their Lincoln logs so I brought them to school. They are a favorite building tool by a few Lower Elementary students. They take such pride in their work. 

candle light walk with friends

This evening my friends Gretchen, Kim, Michelle and I went for a walk in the community and school forests. It was a candlelight walk…so fun to spend time in nature with friends! 

happy national daughter’s day

We really do have the best daughter! Love you to the moon and back sweet Katie Cat Corn 

another win for Osten’s football team

After school today, I drove to Menomonie to see Osten’s football game. They won 24-6! On the way home, I stopped at Target to pick up a curtain for Brads new home office. A couple sweaters caught my eye…I may just keep both.

We drove to Minneapolis early this morning from Fargo to deliver Osten to US Bank Stadium to watch the Vikings with his buddy Coulter. The Vikings won 

bison weekend!

cultural exposure and yummy dinner

Today, we had a family from Australia visit our classroom. They read books, shared apples and explored our classroom. I really enjoyed the books they shared! 

For dinner I made teriyaki pork noodles…yummy! 

little golden trip

 

The model A is back in Grantsburg for the winter. Brad drove it up and I followed just in case I needed to tow him. He left before I and I took my time stopping on my way to Grantsburg and enjoyed some little hikes and pit stops. When I finally arrived, we got the dock in, got Buds green truck (we bought), ate dinner with Ibby, Mike, Bud and Betty and enjoyed a lovely time with family.
