Happy Birthday Ashley!


Remembering Ashley:

-First her smile.  It was always there.  She had the most contagious smile.  It would light up the room.

-She was my American Idol buddy.  She always new all the stuff about the contestants and would fill me in.  

-Best baby sitter in the world.  Never worried when Ashley had our kids.  They loved Friday afternoons with Ashley.  She would spoil them way too much.

-She was a big movie buff like me, only she liked romantic comedies way more that action packed super hero movies.  Go figure.

-She was a good cook.  She made Sunday dinners a few tines for our family.  Her roast was so yummy!  Her specialty was desserts.

-We had very fond memories of Family Home Evenings with Ashley.  She gave great lessons and her testimony strengthened ours.

-We loved to go out to Los Hermanos and Red Robin with Ashley.

-We loved to see her car parked in our driveway!  That meant she was home, which didn't seem like it was often enough.

-Can't remember a bad comment or mean word out of her mouth.

-She was crafty.

-She loved purple.  This is why her room was painted that way.

-It was so fun going to temple square with her to see the lights at Christmas time.

-Fun to have her friend Rom stay with us and go to Rodizio Grill with them.  She had great friends.

-She was the second best story teller ever (her mom being the first.)

-Our family is so blessed to have had her stay with us for so long.  We wish it could have been longer.  She is loved and greatly missed by all.
