We Made It! Summer's Here!

Ashton and I wrapped up our school year last week!  We celebrated by swimming with some friends.  Cameron spent his week off helping me take my classroom a part to get the room ready for break.

Tearing off the last ring from our school chain!

Dance Festival for Ashton

Ashton performed in his 5th dance performance this morning.  The 4th grade did a cute square dance!

 

 

 

I caught a little of their practice yesterday on video. 

 

Cameron Conference

Cameron held a student lead conference for us this week on his progress this semester.  He shared the projects he's been working on and then we grade him on his work.  He's had a great year!

The 8th Graders are here!
 

Summer Soccer

Cameron and Ashton started their summer soccer season today.  They are having so much fun!  We had an ice cream break in between the games.

Memorial Day Service

We attended a service at Eternal Valley this morning honoring our fallen soldiers.  Dad Hubbard played in the City Band during the service.  It was quite special to be there.  We saw lots of flags marking graves of those buried there.

The Countdown has begun!

We are in the final 10 days of school!  Ethan and Cameron are out this Thursday.  Ashton has to go two weeks.  Ugh!  I made Ashton a paper-link chain so we can rip those days off!  Summer's comin'!

A Tribute to Ethan

Ethan has worked so hard this year.  He almost quit band after his first sectional.  But he kept going, staying after school to get better and grow as a musician and a member of the marching band.  We're proud of him, for not giving up and being awesome!

Soccer Tribute

The soccer party for Cameron's team was last week.  He was honored for his loyalty - even  though he was injured for most of the season, he didn't quit the team.  He continued to attend practices, was named an assistant coach and attended every game.  His coach was very impressed.  We're quite proud of him!

Birthday/Mother's Day Combo

I decided since it was both my birthday and Mother's Day, I would take each of the boys out for a little one-on-one time!  Cameron was my breakfast date, Ashton my lunch date, Ethan was my snack/lunch take 2, and the whole family went out for dinner.  It was a fun day!

 

 

 
 
 
 

Final Soccer Game

The Royal Aces finished off the season last Saturday!  Great game!

Taking the corner kick that lead to a goal!

Band Banquet 2015

The Saugus Band concluded their season with a banquet in their honor.  Ethan was honored as part of the loading crew and also as a sophomore member.  It was a fun night to honor the outgoing seniors as well.  A great organization to be a part of and we're so glad we're in it!

Derrik's Las Vegas Trip

 
 
Derrik spent the end of April in Las Vegas for a work conference.  He and his office mates were all honored for their work with NEXT (broker dealer).

Cameron's return to spring soccer

The green jerseys are because the opposing
team had on a similar color.

Cameron has been out most of the spring season due to a back injury.  An x-ray showed no damage so we visited a chiropractor who found his hips were misaligned.  After a few visits, he was on the road to recovery.  His game last weekend was his first back!  He was so happy!

Drum Line Performance

Ethan and the Saugus High drum line performed at a rally with other high schools.  They played their version of "Uptown Funk."
