Warm Weather, Sports & Birthday Party Fun!

We got some Pro Pictures of Connor's Team on the Court
Such a Fun Experience

Weekdays:

  • Monday - Maci and I headed up to the Middle School right after work for the 6th grade welcome night!  We took a tour, realized her elementary school is so much nicer b/c this is the oldest building in the district HA and we heard the principal speak to us.  She is getting so big and I am excited for her to have this next experience.  We grabbed some ice cream on the way home to celebrate together!
  • Tuesday - I started my day with coffee and meeting Mona, the director of eQuality a non profit that I am now joining the board of!  I have been looking to get involved with board work and this one fell in my lap thanks to my dear friend John, tax leader from Cargill.  His wife is on this board and thought of me when they wanted an HR background to join.  I dealt with an extremely frustrating colleague situation before heading to Maci's training and conditioning.  That was a nice transition for me to hang with her after an annoying coworker moment.  Connor also had basketball practice with Clint at the same times so a busy night for our family.
  • Wednesday - Maci registered for her middle school classes.  Rosie got groomed during the day.  Maci had another training at night that Clint drove to and from because it was pretty early.
  • Thursday - Fairly normal day for all of us and then Maci had soccer practice in the evening with her team.  I picked her up and worked from the car for a bit as I got there pretty early
Friday
  • Very productive day and super nice and sunny!  We have been having crazy warm temps for MN!
  • I took off shortly after the kids got home for a 3p Happy Hour with my coworkers Nicole and Rebecca.
  • After HH, I called my parents on FaceTime to see my brother's new restaurant during their soft opening.
  • I then headed to Stanchion for one more beer with Nicole in our neck of the woods
  • I was home by 730p and then chilled with the kids and Clint while they watched basketball.
Saturday :
  • Connor had a basketball game at 9a and did great!  It was probably the best team we have played yet and they totally held their own.  Connor had some great breakaways per usual and a few great passes plus defensive moves.
  • We then hustled to drop Maci at Gymnastics.
  • Once home, I tried to take a quick nap but couldn't fall asleep so I started getting things done around the house
  • Clint ran Maci to soccer practice and then to Natalie's house for her Birthday party at 3p.
  • The party was at vertical endeavors which was a rock climbing place and then Black Sheep pizza, yum!  Maci then spent the night but was the only pal to do so.
  • While Maci was gone, I got a lot of work done and then Clint, Connor and I went to River Inn for dinner together - Yum!
  • I took a HOT shower, felt cozy and went to bed by like 9p.
The Birthday Crew
We are so proud of Maci, each year she goes to this party with all Natalie's school pals
She barely knows anyone but has a blast and typically makes a few new friends
Our beloved extrovert 💖
Sunday : 
  • Clint picked up Maci at 915a and then dropped her at her soccer practice at 10a.
  • I got up and at 'em on the to do list for both work and personal.
  • Clint then ran to the First Communion parent meeting for us while I kept knocking off the to do list.
  • Connor headed over to his buddy Anders' house in the neighborhood to play in the afternoon while Maci hung outside with some of the neighbors by our house - another sunny and 40 something degree day!
  • Clint and I took a walk in the hood with the dogs around 430p and picked up Connor on the way back home.  He happily walked his fav, Boomer, while Clint carried his sports & pokemon card books.
  • We had some dinner, did our showers/baths and are now enjoying the Grammys with Maci - she sure loves her artists :)
We hope you are having a very nice mild winter like we are!
Lots of Love,
C, K, M & C
