GO IPSWICH!
Competition tonight in Danvers~wish us luck!
This pic was taken at their Halloween game, they were beauty pageant contestants. Cass was Miss Vermont~IDK? I always tell her that she should think of going to college up in VT or ME but she's talking about NY city lately for film and music editing (I think). I can't wait to look at schools, I will soooo be living vicariously through her!!! My smartie pants got all A's and one B this quarter in all honors classes. This is extra great b/c cheering has taken up so much of her time and she also has her tougher classes this semester. She works so hard and sets such high standards and goals for herself. We are so proud of her!

Halloween '08
Here are some pics from Reilly's school parade~
Reilly & Dagan...she thinks he is sooooo adorable! (I have to agree.)
Rowan & Reilly
Class of 2021...how crazy is that?!?!?
***********************************
Trick or Treating w/ the Maxwells~
We had sooooo much fun! I still laugh thinking of all these girls flipping their little bodies out of the wagons at every house and bolting across lawns and up walkways, screaming at the tops of their lungs the whole way! It was a sight!
