Memorial Day in Vegas anyone? The girls, Jenny, Aunt Mary, Ong Ngoai (Jenny’s dad) and Ba Ngoai (Jenny’s mom) headed to Vegas for a long weekend. The girls had a blast as we explored the more kid-friendly areas of Vegas while the rest of our family enjoyed the adult entertainment.
Here’s a list of few places we visited: [Read more…]
Kate dances at Boni’s Dance & Performing Arts Studio in The Woodlands. Throughout the year, you’ll find her on big stages in front of hundreds of parents and friends. This year, Kate laced up and danced her heart out during Boni’s summer recital entitled “Rewind back in Time.”
You’ll find tons of pictures shot from our seats in the back! We’re so proud of Kate. She always learns and performs the routines perfectly! What a performer. [Read more…]
Kate and Sophie love playing together, so we organized a joint birthday party for the girls. Together with their friends, the parents and family, we packed eighty people into Wonderwild in The Woodlands. Everyone seemed to have a great time catching air on the kangaroo jumper, dropping out of the crocodile slide and climbing through the playscape.
Happy birthday Kate and Sophie. You’re really growing up quickly. I cannot believe Kate is four and Sophie is now two. It’s amazing to see our girls grow up so fast. Kate is adding numbers, sounding words and excelling in school. Sophie is starting to talk in sentences and is almost potty trained. Both girls are in gymnastics, ballet, swim lessons, music and art classes.
A special thanks to grandma for the tasty cupcakes, to Uncle John for the pictures, to Holly & Vi for helping the girls run the gauntlet and to Ong Ngoai & Ba Ngoai for the delicious after-party dinner.
Here are some party pictures: [Read more…]
It seems like just yesterday when Sophie took her first steps. Now, she has been dancing at Boni’s Dance and Performing Arts Studio for a few months now.
At her age, the hour long class is broken up into 30 minutes of dance and 30 minutes of play.
She really likes her dance class and follows directions really well. Plus, she looks really cute in her pink leotard and leather ballet shoes. [Read more…]
Kate and Sophie dance ballet at Boni’s Dance and Performing Arts Studio. As a great holiday treat, Kate (and her troupe) performed two short dances for the parental crowd. As one proud parent (that would be me) proclaimed, “what grace, what fluidity, what precision… it is a masterpiece!”
Kate dances ballet at Bonnie’s. Every year, Bonnie’s students performance at the Cynthia Woods Mitchell Pavilion. At three years old, Kate danced on the same stage as Kings of Leon, Journey, Def Leppard and others.
Here are a few backstage pictures as our cool cat prepares for her big performance: [Read more…]
