Day with ECDT

Another fun day at EC with the girls. Yesterday was one of the dance team's biggest fundraiser. Grade school kids spend the morning with the dance team learning a routine to perform at the football halftime show. I volunteered in the morning working at the swag table. I basically did nothing but I just love being there with them. I'm so proud of the girls. I love how involved and busy they are at college. 

The weather was perfect for the football game! Only the seniors and a few other girls were on the sidelines for the first half of the game while the rest stayed with the kids and got them ready for their performance. 

This was Julia's second to very last college football game ever : ( 

Then it was time to perform the halftime show with all the kids...

The dance team performed Cold Hearted Snake...

Then Gianna joined the sidelines after halftime...

And the day ended with another fun tailgate...

Only one more home football game left. 

Halloween

The weather was warm and dry so we thought we'd have lots and lots of kids...

See that bowl? We fill it to the brim and it's usually gone by the end of the night. This year it was still half full by 8:30. Not sure where all the kids were this year? Very strange. 

The girls had so much fun and lots of laughs at the dance team Halloween party. Gianna's sophomore class won for best costumes...

and Julia also dressed up as Dora the Explorer later that night...so cute!

Volunteer work

While I was at the Titanic Exhibit, Danny went up to Endicott for the day to volunteer for a dance team fundraiser...

Titanic Exhibit

I went to Boston yesterday with my sisters to see the Titanic Exhibit. It was amazing! I'm so fascinated with the story and the history of the Titanic. 

I wasn't expecting to see something like this at all. It was amazing!! 

I found the story of these dishes fascinating...

And here is the picture of how they were found on the ocean floor...

Menus for first, second and third class. Like really??? 

When you enter the exhibit, they give you a boarding pass with a name and description of the person... 

She was 27 and traveling back to MA to be with her sister, who was about to give birth. She was traveling alone and went 2nd class. Glad she survived! 

Lunch with sisters after...

Such a fun day! (Except for the parking garage fiasco and the ridiculously loud and disruptive hotel workers protest.)
