To The Men I Love...

HAPPY FATHERS DAY!!

Okay...so I know this post is a little late. But better late than never!

 Happy Fathers day to my darling Grandpa Bob. Thank you for raising some of my favorite woman in the entire world. Your love and passion for life means everything.

  Happy Fathers Day to this BABE! Even though Chase is not technically a father, I still wanted to celebrate this day because I am pretty excited that he is my future babies daddy.  This guy is the whole package and there is no doubt in my mind that he will be a wonderful dad to our kids.  So Happy fathers day to you my love, and to the man who raised your right. 
Love you Chaser!

Happy fathers day to the best dad in the entire world! 

I cant help but look back on my life and think all the good times we have spent together. Whether it be singing Tim Mcgraw at the top of our lungs, staying up all night talking about history and politics or just getting thrown in the air at Grandpa Bobs pool, my dad will always be one of my best friends. I think we are so close because our brians work the exact same; he sees and understands everything the same way that I do. I honestly believe the greatest gift a father can give his daughter is just love for her mother. He accomplished that plus so much more. My dad showed me how every woman should be treated and through his example, I found the man of my dreams!  My dads compassion, advice, hard work, and smile will stick with me forever. Gosh I love that guy with all my heart. I cannot wait for all the years to come!! 

Best Friends Forever and Ever Dad.

Love, Ash

Itchin' to go Fishin'

Our two little fishing kings have been Itchin' to go fishin'... we packed up the car (literally to the ceiling) and took a little camping trip to strawberry lake! Marykate and I were quick to find out that our husbands are literally OBSESSED with fishing. Yep, Chase even SLEEPS with his new knife. ahhh!!! Chase and I love Bryan & Marykate, we are grateful they don't get sick of us because we could literally hangout with them every day. You know this was a successful camping trip when you got matching tents, yummy food, a peaceful day, cooler full of new fish and lots of fun memories. We are pretty stoked about our 1st camping trip!!

May...You Were Good To Us.

Our Memorial Day

Our memorial day was quite memorable! I felt all giddy and jittery inside because I could have a WHOLE day with Chase ALL TO MYSELF. Since Chase and I are both going to school and working right now, we haven't really had the chance to enjoy the summer sun! So, we spent the day at the gym,  in the sun, eating yummy food, going swimmin, having a  BBQ and going golfing!  I would say that it was definitely a much needed day off.


ANNND we got to eat our first REAL otter pops of the summer.  yeah baby!

To The Chef I Love,

                   There are countless reasons why I absolutely love being a wife.  I think it's because it comes along with having a husband....haha (duh) We have been married for a little over nine months and I still don't think it has completely settled in. Chase and I still say "I cannot believe were married!!" haha we are such dorks. But I am not going to lie....it has been a HUGE adjustment. I never realized how much busier my life could get! As soon as we got married I remember feeling a little overwhelmed. (I still get overwhelmed)  It's hard to get in a routine of making full on dinners every night, doing laundry for two, budgeting money to pay for bills, making sure the house is clean and organized. As well as finding time to go to school, study, go to the gym, work AND have a little "us" time.  I really don't think I could do it all without Chase!
                   One of my favorite things about him is how great he can cook! My goodness, I will totally admit that he is a way better cook than I am. This kid pulls off "restaurant type" meals and he thoroughly enjoys it! I love our part of the day where we can spend time bonding in the kitchen. He has taught me more than I ever knew! The best part is that everything he cooks is healthy and so yummy. So today, I would like to thank my personal little Chef!

Happy Mothers Day!!

Happy Mothers Day to all the wonderful women in my life! I feel so blessed!
I am especially grateful for my own mom! We have become extremely close over the past year. I cannot even go a couple days without calling that lady. She really is the best! I'm convinced that her heart is made of gold. I would not be the person I am today, without her! I love my mama!

I am also grateful for my darling mother-in-law! I really feel like I am one of her daughters, I got so blessed to marry into such a perfect family. Terry is such a well rounded person and she would do anything for anyone. I'm just grateful to have her as our mom!! We love you!!









I have no idea how I got so lucky... but for some reason I got completely spoiled this mothers day!! I am not complainin' and no I am not pregnant!! I just love my cute husband. He got me a bouquet of gorgeous flowers, a darling note and some new sexy running shoes. I am in LOVE!!! It really was a wonderful mothers day.....I guess I could get used to this mothers day shin dig.

It's Those Little Moments...

I don't mean to get too deep but I just cant help but write about those little moments. You know, the moments when your wrapped up around each other and cant help but say those three words over and over and over. You never wanna let go and just cant stop smiling at each other. Or its those little moments when your in the car singing Dixie Chicks at the top of our lungs which ends in the longest laugh, one of those laughs where you never think your going to stop and catch your breath and the second you do, you start laughing all over again.  That one moment that I look forward to each day when he walks right through that door from a long day at work. We cant help but kiss each other all over. Its the little moments when I look over at him while were in the temple together... I cant stop tears from streaming down my face cause I have never loved someone so much in my entire life.  Ahhh those little moments... They keep me going... and remind me that LIFE IS SOOO GOOD. I have the best husband that any wife could ask for.
