Abbys Dance Recital

We had Abby's Dance Recital today! She did a great job and we are so proud. She is the bunny in the video that loses her ears and doesn't want to leave the stage. Our friend who took our family pictures took some pictures of the girls before the recital. Her daughter Chloe is in Abby's Dance class. Enjoy the video and just think... you can say that you knew her when:)

Also I apologize for the video quality. It was done with my new camera and well... we were not suppose to shoot video during the performance but I don't want to pay $40 for the full recital when Abby was in it for 3 minutes.

Enjoy!

New Bikes

For their birthdays the girls received new bikes. Thank you Grandpa Kass. We ride them every night out front in our circle. They are working hard on steering and braking. So far we have had no major wipeouts. We have made one trip to the park. It takes awhile to get there because Abby is very nervous on hills and walks her bike most of the way! Zoey also got a scooter for her birthday which she is working on too!

Zoey Turns 5

June 8th 2004 was one of the happiest days of our lives. Zoey Katherine Kass was born. She was 8lbs 14 oz and was born on her date at 12:31 a.m. She is curious, smart, helpful, active, and just a lot of fun to be around. She is a great BIG sister to Abby and has become quite the little helper around the house. She chooses baseball of Barbies, Cars over Princess stuff. She is more of a gal then a girlie girl. Recently she has discovered the Jonas Brothers. And sadly next year is Kindergarten. Zoey, We love you and are so proud of you each and every day.

Memorial Weekend Fun

We have had a FANTASTIC Memorial Day weekend so far. Kevin asked me on Thursday what our plans were to make sure we stayed busy. I think I have kept us busy enough so far.

On Friday night we went to the Red Rock Casino with friends for dinner and drinks. We checked the kiddos into Kids Quest and they had a blast.

On Saturday Kevin went out to the dessert to shoot with his friend Paul. That afternoon we went to another friends house for a BBQ. The kids went swimming and then after dinner we watched the fight.

On Sunday, we went to Zoey's baseball coaches house so the kids go play on the huge waterslide. After that we went to another friends house for a BBQ. They smoked a beef brisket and it was FANTASTIC. Below are some pictures from the waterslide fun!

Zoey's Preschool Graduation

We hit a huge milestone with Zoey this week. She graduated from preschool! I thought I would be ok and not get teary eyed. Well... I was wrong. The kids were so darn cute and then they played a slide show of all the kids from the entire year! Zoey is so excited for kindergarten next year. Here is some pictures from graduation.

Zoey's Last Day of School BBQ

On Zoey's last day of preschool her class had a BBQ. She was so excited. The kids got to wear their swimsuits and play in the water park area behind the school. Then they got to have a picnic on their towels and have lunch. Abby was invited to join and the kiddos had a blast.

Here is Zoey hanging out on the edge of the water area.

Zoey's Early Birthday Celebration

Since Zoey's birthday is not until June her preschool teacher let us celebrate it early with her friends. We brought cupcakes and she got a crown. All her friends sang happy birthday to her. She was loving it. Abby got to join in the fun too.
