Colleen made the paper for top returner for her swim team


MASSAPONAX
Coach: Eric Barnaba
Last year: Girls—Seventh in district. Boys—Eighth in district.
Top returners: Girls—Jr. Colleen Beaver; Sr. Taylor Lee; Jr. Shaye Smith. Boys—Jr. Sam Kauppert; Sr. Matt Halliburton; Sr. Robby Morrison.
Top newcomers: Girls—Sr. Emilee Hill. Boys—Fr. Hayden Michelback; Fr. Pavel Wendt; Fr. Corey Sachs.
Outlook: The Panthers lost 12 seniors to graduation and will be quite a bit younger this year. There is a good group of underclassmen, though, and several of the returners are hoping to qualify for the state meet.


Conlan's JV team won last night 60-27.  Conlan scored 3 points on free throws and played excellent defense.

Deer Camp- Carbone style

Ray always says they are going to deer camp.  How many deer camps have a baby grand piano?
Rumor has it the boys were made to sing for their dinner.

Conlan and Nicolas

Nicolas loves Conlan. Chances are Nicolas will never be as tall as Conlan, but this is the last time there will be this much distance between them.

Record Breaker

Colleen broke the school record for most blocks at 250.  She had 131 for the season this year.  Also she found out she had made the all tournament team in this huge showcase tournament in Richmond at the beginning of the season.

Sierra drawings

Sierra drew pictures of Ian to send to him.  They are too cute not to share.

Pony Party

Sierra went to a birthday party at a horse farm.  She was so excited until she saw the horses.  Her fear went into full force.  She did not want to be anywhere near a horse.  I had given up any hope of her riding one.  But she found her inner bravery and decided to give it a try.  She was very concerned the whole time, but I was so proud of her!

Sad and Scared

If I stand way over here maybe someone will feel sorry for me

I don't like this

Okay I will just turn my back on you

Edge Honk

We came across this shirt and Sierra automatically grabbed it so she can take it to Nicolas house, bc he has a edge honk.

What did you do with the number 4?

I not like that number!

Sibling togetherness

Kids had to be cozy in the car ride to Annapolis.  Sleeping was Colleen's way of coping.

Wine away

Ray and I got a couple of days to ourselves.  We hit up the wine life.
