Ashton's Graduation Party


The day of graduation we held a lunch for Ashton.  Family and friends came and we enjoyed a fried chicken meal (Ashton's favorite) and cake and ice cream.  He opened all of his cards and gifts afterwards.  He's rich!

Marching Centurions in Washington, D.C!


The Marching Centurions were invited to march in the National Memorial Day Parade in Washington, D.C.  We've been fundraising for this trip all school year but due to the move, Ashton didn't go.  We did, however, tune in to the parade to see them march!  It rained on them the whole time.  So proud of the marching band!

Spring Concert

 One last Spring Concert at Saugus!!  Ashton performed with the Wind Ensemble and at the end of the concert while the band was playing the Alma Mater, the seniors all left the stage when their name was called and stood in the front.  Very emotional and special!
