Ashton as Napoléon Bonaparte

“Bonjour, mon nom est Napoléon Bonaparte, le plus grand conquérant qui ait jamais vécu.”

Ashton chose Napolén for his 6th grade People Fair report. This big project for Ashton includes lots of research, a written report, and a power point presentation. He used a vintage book we inherited from Gammo & Granddad Martin to learn about the emperor.

Ashton’s costume was Ricki’s big project. She made the uniform vest with gold buttons and cord. The pants Ashton says he’ll wear as pajama pants now. I helped with the gold epaulettes (the best part of the uniform—if I say so myself). The hat is from Amazon.
