I've Got No Strings

Another video from the show - this one is 'I've Got No Strings' from the Pinocchio movie. Kennedy is on the far right.

Disney On Stage!

Kennedy had a great time at Theatre Camp, at the end of the two week camp, they performed a "Disney On Stage" production with different song/dance numbers from the different movies over the years. Here she is in the finale, "We're All In This Together" from High School Musical, which I think was everyone's favourite!

Summer Fun

Kennedy is having fun with Jenna & Marysa here - they go off to the playground themselves or up to the store for an ice cream. Also, on Wednesday nights for the next eight weeks, we'll be having a sleepover with them as I have a photography course so Marysa will watch Kennedy & Jenna while I'm out, then the three of them will have a sleepover. Kennedy is pretty excited about that.

Not too much other than that is new around here - Kennedy made out great at Nana & Papa's while I was on my trip to Europe, next week is the beginning of her two-week "Disney on Stage" theatre camp so we'll be busy this weekend getting ready for that. Hope everyone is having a fabulous summer!

Last Day of Grade Four

I can't believe the year is over. Kennedy got her home report yesterday and passed all her subjects, spelling and Social Studies were her two highest marks. I'm just thrilled she is doing the regular curriculum with some modifications and keeping up. We are so proud of her. The next time I see my little beauty in about three hours, she will be a grade fiver! Where has the time gone?

She looked so cute this morning, wearing her little Old Navy dress to school, that I had to snap a couple of pictures. She is getting to be such a big girl and that hair! She agreed this morning to a 'trim' - she has a major long hair obsession that I don't think is going anywhere anytime soon.

We have a busy summer planned, she is going to two weeks of theatre camp, one week of deaf camp, and one week of Nana & Papa camp while I am in Europe for my March of the Living Trip. We are also having her two friends Marysa & Jenna for four weeks this summer so she is excited to have two 'sisters' for part of the summer. Between all of that and me finishing up two more university courses, things won't slow down a whole lot but that's okay, I'm sure we will have lots of fun.

To close, I'll leave you with another one of the photos this morning, up closer and in colour:

Fun Weekend At APSEA

As always, Ms. Kennedy loved going down to APSEA with all her friends for the annual "Family Weekend" - she still had a blast and made out fine signing despite having only one hand/arm to do things with. More later, but for now here she is with some of her buds, mostly at bed time (the rest of the time, you couldn't slow them down long enough for a photo!), making silly faces, reading Jonas Brothers or Hannah Montana books, doing silly poses and of course, the "toothbrush shot":
