Ashton's lil side kick

 It's no secret that Ashton is really good with little kids and our little neighbor Grayson is no exception!  It's absolutey adorable to see how much Grayson worships Ashton and how awesome Ashton is with him!

Happiness!

 Yesterday we got an encouraging note from Ashton's math teacher!  He has had a great year in Math!!!!  He has worked really hard to "catch up" with his grade level peers.  Needless to say we are very proud of him!

Hello,

I just wanted to send out an email to let you know that Ashton has been doing fantastic in math this year.  He even just scored a 100% on one of the hardest tests that we will take all year.

He should be proud of his work, and I am excited to see how he does throughout the rest of the year.

Thanks,
Mr. Gaetani

Also it's not secret Ashton loves his bikes.  He loves riding them.  Taking them apart, putting them sometimes back together.  Well yesterday he created his own little "bike repair shop" in the shed.  He was so excited to show it off to me!  I was so proud of him!

Snow days!

We welcomed in the New Year with Katie and her family!

January gave Ashton the gift of two little snow storms back to back! He made snow forts, went snow skiing multiple times (even once with Daddy), created a snow ski bike, and did lots of sledding!  Needless to say, he loves the snow and has been a delighted boy!

Yesterday, he had his first "ski club" ski event at Liberty and adored it!  He skied from 3 p.m to 9 pm!!!! Even going on a black diamond trail for the first time!  He is already looking forward to next week! 

He also registered for his high school classes!  I can't believe our little boy is going to go to high school next year!!!!
