A Date With My Favorite 6 Year Old

About a month ago Ada was invited to a friends birthday party at the water park in Grand Forks so Emily and I decided to have a little girls day. First we played Wii and then went out for pizza and ice cream at Happy Joe's. It was so fun to just get to sit and listen/talk with her. Being the youngest and quite timid, she doesn't get to be the center of attention very often.

We've Got Mail

When I was a kid I loved getting mail. It didn't happen very often but I would get very excited when it did. As an adult, getting mail has lost it's spark. Usually it's bills or junk mail. Nothing too exciting. However, since moving to Crookston we have gotten several care packages from family and friends back in the cities. It is always so exciting to find a box at the front door and to see the look on the girls faces when they see that it is for them.

So, if I have not said so yet to the people who have sent us fun things, THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!
