Happy 7th Birthday Kate!

How quickly the time passes!  It is amazing that Kate is already 7.  She has so much spunk and energy, but she has the biggest heart and is very caring for those around her.  June was a very busy month in our household - tournament, dance recital, family reunion and vacation - so Kate celebrated her birthday multiple times! 
Kate's birthday party with the Weatherwax's - brownies are her favorite!
 Since June 25th was our first day of vacation, we celebrated with our family earlier in the week.
I had to include this pic.   We were shopping at Von Maur and Kate found this shirt with the shoulders cut out (she also has an obsession with crop tops this summer).  I told her that I wasn't sure if it was appropriate for a little girl to wear, but then I slipped it to the sales lady for a birthday surprise.  She was so excited.
Kate chose El Vacquero for her birthday dinner!
 The day before her birthday we headed to Richmond, Virginia to spend the night so we would have a 3 hour trip to Outer Banks.  Good thing the balloon fairy found Kate!
 Our 7 year old little girl!
We said that this year's celebration was themed "Cake by the Ocean" to go along with the top 40 hit from the radio.  It was fun to celebrate a birthday with the Zinser clan on vacation.

Kate facts:  She is going into 1st grade
She loves watching You Tube video tutorials on baking, pranks, hair, nails, make-up and crafts.
She enjoys chicken tenders, salads, shirley temples, chocolate...chocolate...chocolate!!
She loves to sing and dance.
She plays piano and will return to soccer this fall.

Kate's Dance Recital

Our sweet Kate works hard each week in her Hip Hop class from September to June!  This year's theme for the recital was Peter Pan.  
We were joined by both set of Grandparents, Aunt Rebecca and Hailey!

Piano Recital

Emma and Kate had their Spring/Summer piano recital last night.  They did a great job.
Emma played - Pumpkin Boogie, Tomorrow (from Annie) duet, and Fur Elise.
Kate played - Kites in the Sky, Painting with Pastels duet (above) and Jack and the Bean Stalk.

Memorial Day Weekend

 We went home to my parents house for a Memorial weekend cookout with the Sponzilli's and Uncle Doug. 
We went to James' baseball game. 
Kiddos enjoyed Kona Ice treats after the game. 

It wouldn't be a Memorial Day Weekend without the pool.  We were able to go to the pool Saturday, Sunday and Monday!  Hello Summer!

And the best part about Memorial Day....the Memorial golf tournament is right around the corner.  
Here is the 2016 photo!
