Friday June 29

All this week Cassi has been paticipating in a Musical Theatre program for Meridian City.

They have been working on scenes from 'Suessical the Musical'.

Cassi was cast as 'blue bird'.

She had per performance today, and she had so much fun.

She did such a great job.

Cassi has such a knack for remembering lines and lyrics to songs.

She had all the parts memorized and all the songs, including the ones she didn't sing.

She has so much fun doing this kind of stuff and we look forward to all the musicals/plays in her future!

You like her tail and head feather :)

Pretty cute.

Full cast

Old and new friends to hang out with.

Daddy picked out these tulips for Cassi to give toher after the show.

She loves her Daddy and loves when she makes him proud :)

Musical Theatre teacher Mary.

She does such a great job in such little time.

Tonight we went to a Dutch oven dinner at the Youngs house and Mary and her family joined us.

We have known Mary for a while....her hubby, Eric, and Drew have been best friends forever.....and lets not forget that Eric is our awesome realtor who found our little peice of heaven for us :)

Anyway, while I was talking with Mary tonight she told me that Cassi is just so great.

She said that Cassi has an amazing ability to mesh with any age or personality that she is working with.

She said kids flock to her and want to ber her friend.

I knew Cassi was like that....but it is always nice to hear it from someone on the outside :)

After the play we took Aubree home with us, while Madi went to the Youngs house.

Cassi and Aubree wanted to make some peanut butter cookies.

I went out to help Dad, cause we are putting a roof of sorts over the deck now....

Anyway, when it came time to taste the cookies.....the were horrible!!!

Luckily the girls agreed that they were very bad....and I told them they could give it another try.

But I did ask them what exactly they put in.

They seemed quite salty, so I asked what they put in for the salt and baking soda.

The recipe called for 3/4 tsp salt and 3/4 tsp. baking soda.

They told me that they put a full teaspoon of salt in and then they put a full teaspoon of baking soda in......AND another 1/4 CUP baking soda!

AHHHH!!!

I couldn't help but laugh....the girls thought it was funny too when I showed them the actual amount!
I also have to add that Cassi did come and ask me how much 11/4 cup was  :)
It was 1 1/4 cup.
Baking is so great for math lessons.

They are good girl and had a lot of fun making cookies....even if they had to do it twice :)

The second batch turned out perfectly!

Good job girls.

So, like I said, later tonight we went to the Youngs house for some ducth oven cooking and swimming.

It was so much fun and such yummy food!

Thanks guys for having us over.

We love hangin out with you :)
