I headed to KS on Tuesday of this last week to visit Dad who was very sick in the hospital.

Prom 2018

Ethan went to Brisa's prom last night at the Aquarium of the Pacific in Long Beach.  He had a fun night!

Band Banquet

We celebrated the ending of the band year last night at the annual banquet.  Cameron earned his sophomore medallion and we honored the hard work of all the band during the season.  Our director is leaving this year, so we also end the year with sadness and excitement about what the next year looks like.  Ethan came and sat with Brisa, who is finishing her senior year in color guard.  A fun night!

Sophomore band members

May the Fourth be with you!

Ashton and I sported our Star Wars t-shirts to school on Friday to celebrate May 4th!  I even did a steady beat lesson with little pool noodle/light sabers with one of my classes.  May the Fourth be with you!

Hubbard Men at the Avengers Movie!

The guys all headed off to see the Avengers movie together this week!  I got to have some quiet time at home after a long week and enjoyed the quiet. 

Pops Concert 2018

Cameron held his final band concert for his sophomore year last night!  He sat so handsome in his first chair position.  They played "Heroes and Villians" music and it was fabulous!  Proud of him!

Drum Circle Monday

It was Teacher Appreciation week at school this week.  I moved my classroom drums to the Multipurpose room at school to lead some of my classes through a drum circle on Monday!  It was fun to have a change of scenery and space.  Ethan came and helped me lead a few groups through some loud and soft rumbles! 
A highlight of the week was receiving a donation of buckets from Home Depot to create bucket drumming lessons with my students!

Spending time with Grandpa!

The grandparents had been visiting the Colorado Hubbard's and Grandma decided to stay on and help the family with a few projects.  She's coming home this week but we've had the fun of having Grandpa over for meals and to hang out!

Musical night with Cameron

Cameron was heading to see Beauty and the Beast at the high school on Friday and I decided to join him!  We watched the band play and a great cast of students on stage.  It was a fun night!

Three boys at play

For Ashton's birthday, he got several coupons from both the older boys for playing a game with him.  Ashton has used them all up until he had one left for each of them.  His idea: use them at the same time!  So both boys joined him in a game of Wii Play.  These photos are of the fastest knitter game, where Ethan won.  SO fun to watch them hang out together!

Pep Band at Swim Meet

A few members of the Saugus High School pep band went to support the swim team at their swim meet on Wednesday.  So fun to get pictures of Cam!

The Soccer Fans!

Derrik and Cameron are enjoying the soccer season - A LOT!  Here was last weekend's home game.  So glad Cameron won those free season tickets last fall!

Ethan's New Job

Ethan finally put in his two weeks at Papa John's and started training at his new job - Albertsons!  He will be a courtesy clerk - bagging groceries, price checking and other misc jobs.  So far, he likes it!  He has the potential to get extra hours, be promoted and have health benefits.  We're excited for him!

Spring Break:Haircuts before-and-after!

We had to catch the amazing transformations!

Spring Break: Park Day

We headed to the park Thursday morning!  Cameron met some friends for soccer and the rest of us (minus Ashton) did some walking and running.  I got in a small hike up above the park and got some great views!

Ethan did some walking with me

Cameron played two hours of soccer with his friends

Derrik ran and then shagged balls for the boys
