Porch Party! (Cassie's Spring Singing Recital)

In the first picture Cassie's singing instructor is having Cassie tighten her stomach muscle's. Cassie sang Good Morning Baltimore from the movie / play Hairspray. She did really well taking on this big song. What was amazing was that there was a young man there who is the son of someone I used to do Varsity Scouts with. I still remember the day he told me in nursery that his son Jason had autism. Jason is 10 yrs. old now. He wrote and sang a song about making a difference. He also sang Life is a Highway by Rascal Flatts. Jason was quite the performer.

Pet Of The Week - Future Journalist - Cassie
Cassie was selected as one of ten students from her elementary school to be a Kid Newscaster on the Daily Herald TV channel. Cassie was excited that she got to do the pet of the week. She really likes animals so it was fun for her. I downloaded her broadcast and then uploaded her on our blog, but if you want to see her classmates at school, you can see them here.
Make sure you select Saturday, May 10th to see her school mates do their newscast. Also, remember to pause the music playlist so you can hear Cassie well.

Little Miss Lindon

Cassie recently participated in the Little Miss Lindon Pageant. There were four other girls from our neighborhood who participated as well. For her talent Cassie sang a song from the original Doctor Doolittle soundtrack.

Looks like the participants are having fun while getting their pictures taken. Thanks to Oma and Papa for attending the pageant.

For her service project Cassie made a meal for a family in our neighborhood that recently has had some tough times. The father has been diagnosed with cancer (and is under going chemo-therapy) and the mother has had their back operated on. Cassie made the meal so that the family could prepare when they want to use it. She also made some truffles for them. I got to try one and they were good.
