Festival Concert for Ashton

We attended Ashton's Festival concert with the Wind Ensemble.  Ashton played on the bells and also played the timbani!  

With director, Bob Grigas

Hard to see what he's doing but you can hear him!

Again, you can hear him better than see him!

Ashton's Open House

 We attended our very last Open House at Saugus High School!  Ashton took us around to all of her classes and we got to meet his teachers.  He's done so well and we are so proud of all his hard work!

Cameron heads to Portland

 Cameron and his friend, Brian, took a trip to Portland to see a Ben Rector concert.  He's getting really good and doing quick adventures!  They consumed a lot of coffee and saw a great concert!

We own a home in Tennessee!

 As of this week, we officially own a home in TN!  We took the family out for dinner to celebrate.  Looking forward to this next adventure!

Cameron's Asia Trip July '23

Cameron has been asked by the church to join the team going to southeast Asia the end of July!  He will be doing some video work of the trip and helping the team to run a VBS for kids there.  We're so excited that he gets to go!

Tennessee trip

 We did a quick 3-day trip to Memphis this week.  The goal was to close on Wednesday but some pieces got held up at the lender and we were granted an extension until this coming week.  We got to see the house in person!!  We also got to show Ashton around Germantown.  Ashton got to participate in a dinner group with a life skills group that he's thinking about joining.  I met with the owner of the Kindermusik studio in town and got to see her studio.  Overall, it got us so excited about our move!!

Backyard video

In other news, while we were experiencing 80 degree weather in TN, So Cal got another dusting of snow!  We got two videos from the older boys.

Old Videos

In the midst of packing, we found several old camcorder tapes and got them converted to a flashdrive.  It was fun to look back on our years in both Wamego and California at our first house.  It was a long time ago and just yesterday.  :)
