My Ash-hole.

I understand this title may be slightly inappropriate but you must understand it explains our relationship :)
Today is Ashlees birthday.
I just wanted to wish her a REAL BIG happy birthday and do a whole post for her since she's in California so there will be no birthday spankins from me. We'll leave that for Shae ;)
Now here are approximately 72 photos to show my love for her. Enjoy!

We're sexy and we know it.










Sometimes we take cute pictures like this...
And sometimes we take not-so-cute pictures like this.


Ashlees first time to Disney Land! Orrr... "dinneelaaannd"
She is seductive, isn't she?
We made the drive home ONE too many times.


She got married. It was real fun :)

Oh, and... please refer back to this post for some added entertainment.

So now I think it's safe to say..
HAPPY BIRTHDAY ASH-HOLE/SMASHLEE/ASHER SMASHER/BFF!!
Love you long time :)

It's my turn!

I can finally brag about my Valentine :)

Nothing has been holding me back except my usual self getting distracted whenever I sit down at the computer to blog.

First, I have to tell about the surprise I got on the 12th at the family Valentines dinner. Kelly got me an ottoman! Wahoo! The hunt is over. He is a sweetheart. But... there is no picture because I'm not good at remembering those things.

Now I will tell of my other surprise that I got on Valentines day. I have been bummed for the longest time because Valentines fell on a Tuesday and those happen to be our long days at P Dontal (miss-spell intended). However, my Debbie Downer mood about having to stay late on the day of love was all turned around when Niki walked into work and plopped this little bundle of joy in front of me.

Hee hee! He loves me! He took it to Nikis house the night before so that she could bring it to me on Valentines. I'm telling you. He has mastered the art of a sneaky boy. Inside are some "booty huggers" to go under my shorts when I go running. Another hunt to be over!

So this next picture is sideways but get over it. I am not about to start this post over just to rotate it. And if there is a way to do it after it has been uploaded, I haven't figured that out. :)


Look how he put a picture of us in the middle of the cutout! So clever. And inside the card, our story and a love note. And more pictures. And lots of gushy cute-ness that makes me weak in the knees.


After my long day of work, Kel took me to dinner and a movie. Classic but so perfect.
Gosh I got lucky, huh?! Thanks for spoiling me, baby!

I made a quilt for my lover but there are no pictures because it's not quite done.. At least it is all sewn together though. Maybe another post for another day.

Super Grandpa

Remember this cute grandpa? Remember how he got in a really bad 4-wheeler accident and barely made it through? This post is for him.



My grandpa is one amazing man to say the least.
For Christmas, he wrote this letter to all of us. One night last week, while I was waiting for my towels to finish drying, I sat down with a kit kat from my stalking to finally read this cherished letter.
In the letter he told us how grateful he is for each of us and how he knows our prayers for him were answered. He bears his testimony and tells us how much our Savior loves us. He tells of his crazy experiences and his testimony of why he made it through it all to be here today.


Oh. And he was sneaky by putting in some cute smileys and calling our grandma his sweetheart :)

Isn't he cute? Love him!

A little boost for the day

Oh buddy, is that the truth or what? I don't think there is even one of us that can say we've never felt like we're "drowning in life."

Thanks for the picture (and little reminder!) good friend. Even if it was from facebook. :)
