Andrew's Bar Mitzvah

The Casares Family has been busy living life and we have not been keeping up with this blog as much as we would like to, but on August 4, 2018, we celebrated a milestone in our family and wanted to make sure it made it to the blog as we play catch up.

Traditions bind us in the Casares family and we truly treasure our family's history.  Our photographer, created a blog post with some highlights, so we hope you will enjoy seeing how amazing this day was for our Andrew and for us as proud parents.  Everyone came together to make it a truly special day and we could not be more grateful for the people in our lives.  The memories will last a lifetime and thankfully through these pictures, we will be able to return to the moments. From generation to generation!

Andrew's Piano Recital

Andrew took piano lessons this summer and here is his first performance in the Franco-American Heritage Center. I love how he doesn't even have to look at the music sheet and the bow is outstanding. May he continue to play!

Peaks To Portland Race 2012



 We are up early in the morning in Portland to see dad swim his Peaks to Portland Race. We hop on the Y shuttle down to East End Beach to get ready to cheer him on as he swim from Peaks Island. It's about a 2.4 mile swim and it's Maine ocean water, so it.is.cold.
 A beautiful morning for the event. 

He did it! He comes in 12th overall and 4th in his age group. Booya.
We are so proud!
