Happy Halloween

We hope you all had a great halloween.
Ashley had time of her life. first she had
a party at school, then we started to trick
or treat late in the afternoon. We had dinner
with our good friends, Neil, May, Lexi and Wil.
Then we went out for more candy. The girls had a blast.
It was so fun much to dress up, and watch ashley smile and
laugh getting candy. It was a beauitful day!
I am sure she will remember it forever.

Halloween Party

The Real Hannah Montanna
Ashley's dance school had a little
halloween party for them .
Ashley had fun dressing up as her
favorite rock star! She looked great
in a blonde wig. After while she did it
off, it was itching her head. Even though
she had an hour-half practice before the party
she still had alot of energy and had the time
of her life. Now she is fast a sleep in her bed .
It was a long day but it was fun!

Happy 10 yrs since our Engagement

On October 24,1998 Jason asked me to marry him!
WOW! How time flies! I still remember going home
and telling my parents I was going to get married.
My dad was shocked. It didn't sink into my dad's head what I had told him until a few hours later.
It never really sunk in,until the day he walked me down the aisle.
I miss him very much!
I even remember my mom had made mac & cheese from scratch
and then we went out to celebrate ourselves.
Tonight Jason and I will be celebrating by
going out by ourselves for dinner, food shopping and
shopping for a Halloween costume for me (even though I like the one I wear everyday) A stay at home Mom.
We are finally realizing that we need time to ourselves.
Ashley is starting to understand that mommy and daddy
need alone time. It is very important to have Adult time in a marriage.
I am sure Ashley will be giving us the guilt trip like she did last
week when we went to a wedding.
We had nice time at the wedding.
We are hoping to have a good time this weekend, kid free for two nights.
We have a babysitter. This is weird the girl who is babysitting
for us is a girl I used to watch when she was 4. Now is
18. WOW! I am getting old. It's a small world.
We actually reunited when Jason
was @ their neighbors house for a fire call.
God does work in wonderful ways.
Alana is a great person someday she will be in Congress.
She's not your typical teenager.
She is very excited to watch Ashley.
Ashley is excited too!
From here on in no matter what happens or what will ever did happen Jason and I will love each other Forever.
Just like the words in our wedding song "Forever" by Dennis Wilson of The Beach Boys.
I will post more over the weekend!
Have a great weekend everyone! Here are some pictures of us from then and now.

10 years ago

All Star Soccer Player

This is Ashley's first Soccer picture for the fall season 2008.
The season is over on Saturday 10/25.
They will be getting a trophy and a pizza party.
She enjoyed Soccer. Ashley will most likely play again
in the spring. I really think she is going to an all sports girl. I know she's going to miss playing in the winter. However I will not, since I hate the cold.

fall clean up

Ashley with Mr Pumpkin that she painted in school today!




It is that time of the year, when the leaves need
to be picked up.
Ashley asked if she can clean up
her little park area I said sure you can, what
4 year old wants to clean, not even
a teenager wants to rake leaves.
She talked my ear off, she told
me all about the fall, and how the leaves are
changing colors and it is almost Halloween.
Ashley kept telling me I was raking the leaves wrong.
I was not taking out the little sticks and
breaking them, she said you need to do it so the
bag will not break.
WOW! What a Kid! We love her love her dearly!








Just relaxing after raking all the leaves.

Dance Boot Camp

I think her shirt says it all!
United States Dance Corp!

Ashley loves to dance . She is always practing.
she been challenging herself in the dance studio
and on the soccer field.
Two weeks ago Ashley scoredtwo goals.
Well, last Saturday she scored three.
This week she wants to make four.
What 4 year old gives him/herself a challenge.
Yesterday in dance she wanted to
do around off by herself she keep doing until she did it
perfectly, she also came home and practiced some more.
It is amazing how much she is dedicated to something.
Which is great!
Every child needs something in there lives.
which ever it is a sport or some hobby.
It makes them believe in themselves!

Fun day with my Daddy

The artist's modeling their artwork.
Every Saturday is Daddy and daughter day.
Since Mom goes go to work they get to spend time together.
This past Saturday Ashley just wanted
to stay home and play, after her Soccer game and lunch.
They did some artwork on the driveway.
It is actually still on there.
They really have fun drawing together.

We had fun. Enjoy the show!

fire prevention night

It was fire prevention night here in Woodbridge.
They had lots of stuff for the kids, demos,

Ashley has been going for three years now! She has changed so much !
Don't forget to change your smoke detector batteries!




Two little girls came up to Jason and asked him if they could take their pictures
with him. He was so thrilled, Ashley told them, thats my Daddy.
We actually knew the girls from Soccer.
