kitty part 2

p.s. that lady with kitty was just trying to get money out of us. :( But leda was going to take her. I have such good people in my life. :D

life is a gift.

Life is so amazing right now. I couldn't ask for a better family, a better lover, or better friends. :D thank you so much to all of you who make my life this wonderful. :D On top of those wonderful things it is October, my second favorite holiday, the first being my birthday. Ahaha I have decided to be a 1950's french pin up girl. I'm going to rock red lips, tons of eye liner, and my faux hawk. I'm so excited. Mamma's throwing a party at her house so if anyone wants to join the party you're more than welcome. Ok, I guess not anyone, but you know what I mean.

I do have some more exciting news, I'm gettin my picture taken next Saturday. My mamma, sky, and I are gettin family pictures taken by Miss Alex Cunningham and I'm sooo stoked. Alex is going to takee my picture alone another day at the cemetary in the valley where my brother is buried. I'm so excited. I haven't seen her in so long and she does amazing work.

On top of all this, it's football season. And the amazing steelers are startin out 3-1 with a 3rd string QB. We have a bye this week, but next week when Big Ben steps onto the feild, you poor poor browns. We are going to dominate!!!! We have an awesome game coming up on halloween, we're playin the Saints. (Lil breesy) ahahaha I freakin love that commercial. Anywho, everybody needs to watch my Steelers take this shit over! :D

And anyone that's planning on coming to vegas with us we're staying at the Wynn. YAY! Everything is getting so close, Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas, and then my birthday! Hehehe

I'll. Write more and put up pictres after I get together with Alex. :D

Kitty

I need some help. When I moved out my mom gave my cat to some man and this man has abandoned her. Someone found her and put up her picture in smiths, which is how I came to have this problem. The lady that found her can't keep her forever. Scott said the cat can't live with us. She needs a home. She is fixed, declayed, litter box trained, and has all her shots. Her name is Ocean and she is so sweet and loveable. Call me if you're interested. Thank you so much. 8019413992

Random-ness

It is September now, which means the stores have put out their halloween candy, and the costume shops are opening up. :D I got online and have found a few that I like but I just can't decide which one I want. I want Scott and I to match, if he wants to of course. But it's not a must. There's a really cute one from Alice in Wonderland that is called "Dark Heart Queen" it's super cute, it even has a cute little mini top hat. ahahaha Then there's one that we both though was funny, its "Medical Mary Jane" and there's a male costume that's called "Dr. Herb Smoker" ahahaha. they're white and green and super cute. Then there's two army ones that are cute, and I figured that one would be easy for Scott, he wouldn't even have to buy anything. But then I thought, why would he want to wear that? He's done playing army. LOL There's also a cute sailor girl one that has a male one that matches, but it is kinda homo to be honest with you. LOL One of my favorites is a "Marie Antoinette" but it's pretty expensive, but soo cute. There's an "Eskimo" one that I like, but mostly because it looks warm and October is cold. LOL Then there's the "French Kiss Pinup Girl" which is super super cute! it's got cherries and a blonde wig and the cutest shoes. I love this one, but I have no idea what Scott could be..... And the last one that I like it Judy from the Jetsons. It's cute, but I'm always worried about certain costumes because my boobs aren't big enough and this is one of them. LOL So I guess we'll see which one Scott likes best and go from there.

Scott's car is finally fixed, thank god! He's going to pay for it today and Bob & Wannetta are going to bring it down. Which will be nice, no more waking up at 5:30 for Miss Ashley! YAY! LOL I'm not going to lie, I did enjoy the few minutes we got to spend together on the way there and home. Hopefully he can get his school work caught up and we will be able to do things again.

Oh, so I learned today that Gerald Butler is the phantom in the movie The Phantom of the Opera. I never knew. It doesn't even look like him, there are some parts that sound like him when he talks but that's it. I had no idea he could sing, but I love this movie even more now.

Scott unfortunatly brought something to my attention today, I need more calcium. Bleh. Looks like its off the the store for me. Got to buy some vitamins. We have some chewable calcium thingys at home but they seem aweful. They've been on top of our fridge for almost a year now. Ahahaha

I read the most amazing book today. It is called The Sidewalk Artist by Gina Buonaguro & Janice Kirk. It was such a touching story. It made me sad and happy at the same time and it made me want to go to Italy and study the history there. I've always wanted to go, but not really to study. Well, I guess it was to 'study' about the history of the artists that lived there and of their paintings that are there but now I want to know so much about them. Weird how you can read a book and forget its name in a month's time and others you will always remember. I think this is one I'm not likely to forget any time soon. It was all about a woman who travels to Europe to write a novel and about the famous artist Raphael. I wonder if the historical things in this book are true. I will have to look into it when I get home tonight. Anywho, if you have 3 hours I suggest you go pick up this book and read it. And even if you don't fall in love with it like I did, its at least a good novel and a wonderful love story.

So I can't remember if I told you or not, but I'm starting to plan my Vegas trip and I'm soooo flippin excited. All I can do right now is pick the hotel and then I have to wait for a while before I can book tickets to the shows I want to go see. But I have 3 shows in mind and a couple clubs I want to go to and I've narrowed it down to 3 hotels. One of them is at the end of the strip, but it looks like a castle so that sold me. Ahahaha we'll see, and I'll be e-mailing everyone in a couple months as it gets closer. I want as many people as possible to come celebrate my 21st birthday with me. YAY!!! Can not wait!

mamma

Scott & I got into a little tiff today, what about doesn't maytter. All that matters is that I was upset and my mom calls. She instantly knows something is bothering me and miraculously she calms me down in less than 3 minutes. She has been doing this since my birth; from friends, to boys, to my dad, to my siblings. I've always been one to be a bit on the emotional side and sometimes a bit dramatic as well, I would have fit it well with the drama nerds that filled my high school choir, well high school in general. ;D Anywho, the point of all this is that I have an amazing mother. I know a lot of people look down on the relationship that we have, but I wouldn't want it any other way. Most girls fight with their moms when they are in their teens, myself included, but it takes them a while to become friends with their mom. My mom and I skipped that part, we have always been close and I'm so thankful for that. It scares me to think what trouble I would have gotten into had I not been able to talk to my mom about everything. So I'm sorry to the people who disagree with the way my mother raised me and to those who don't understand our relationship & bond. But I love it!

She is the most incredible person I have ever met. She always puts her family first and does what ever she can just to put a smile on their faces. She goes out of her way to make the people in her life feel special and loved. And she has such a big heart. There are plenty of things that have been said to my mother that she has just brushed off and turned the other cheek, there have been people who have hurt her and she's welcomed them back with open arms. She is so level headed and calm. I'm not sure how she does it, but I hope that one day I can be a little like her. She truely is an amazing person.

I read some where that at the age of 4; mom knows everything. At the age of 8; she knows a lot. At 12; mom doesn't really know everything. At 14; mom doesn't know anything at all. At 16; mom doesn't exist. At 18; she's old fashioned. At 25; maybe mom does know about this. At 35; before we decide, let's ask mom. At 45; I wonder what mom things. At 75; I wish I could ask mom about this. Reading this made me laugh because I know I felt at some points in my life that my own mamma didn't know anything. But then it also made me a little sad because there are people who never get past some of those younger stages in life. And I'm not sure who is at fault for this, but its still sad.

Anywho, now I'm just rambling. Back to my point; I just wanted to let my mamma know how much she is loved by both me and my baby brother. I hope she knows we think about her and send our love her way every single day. And every single day I appreciate everything she has done for us. <3

dresses for charity

My sister-in-law, Amber, e-mailed all of us asking if we had any extra bridesmate dresses to donate to girls who couldn't afford formal dresses, and I have 2 dresses to donate, but she lives in texas and its pretty expensive to ship my dresses out there. Does anyone know of anywhere around the Ogden/SLC area that does a similar thing? Because my dresses are just taking up space in a closet. I don't want to part with my Sr. Cotillion dress, but I have no use for it. I just feel so pretty wearing it. Ahahaha

Can you believe that it is already almost September?!?! This summer flew by. God, this whole year has flown by. It kind of makes me sad, I never even got to go to the drive in this summer. And hardly used the rollar blades Scott bought us. :( I'm hoping we can go camping over labor day weekend like we did last year, but Michael & Emily's wedding is the Saturday before, so I don't know how much Scott will want to go, or if he'll even have it off. :( Bummer. Tyler leaves in a couple days which is a bummer, I'm not ready for him to leave yet. But we only have to wait till Thanksgiving to see him. :D

Mamma is going to Mesquite this weekend for a few days, I know you don't care about that, but while she's there she is bbooking our hotel room for our Vegas trip in March! WaHoo!!!! I'm not sure what hotel for sure yet, but it will be March 18-22. :D I'm super excited. Can we just skip the next few months? LOL

Scott's Birthday Party

Well, Scott's surprise birthday party was a hit! We had fun for the most part, there was a couple minor drama moments, but it's all good because I know I'm better than that dumb bitch and that douche bag. :D He loved his wii and his new game and 'other surprises'. :D I hope he liked the 'other surprises' as much as his wii. ahaha Tons of people came over and all my parents helped me out sooo much! My mamma & Chris got him out of the house for part of the evening and watched ty for half the day. And my dad & Nik came over early and helped with the food which was a huge help. I'm really glad that his Jesse & Brad came down from Brigham to celebrate his birthday, I think it made him pretty happy. :D

I'm pretty excited for the next year and pretty stressed out too. I'm going back to school in June and have to save pretty much ALLLLL my extra money to pay for school, bills, and new tires. :( bleh. It totally blows, especially because I want some new pants and some new boots for winter. Meh, oh well. It will be worth it in the long run. By this time next year I'll be a much happier person in a much better place! Speaking of being in a better place, Scott got the job at the jail and the one at the nursing home. We both think the job at the nursing home would be a better choice. So hopefully he can get all of the paperwork done and start soon. :D

I think things are turning around in our lives, I think the drama of our families is finally over, and I couldn't be happier. His mom and I are getting along, and my family has always liked him. His parents officially met all my parents at his party, and it went quite well. I'm very happy about our lives right now. :D I'm so lucky to grow old with him!

I did go through with cutting my hair, and I love it! It is soooo easy to take care of. It takes me literally 10 minutes to get ready after I get out of the shower compared to my old 45 minutes. It's really wonderful! ahahah And now you can actually see my gauges, which is nice; lots of people didn't even know I had them. But, I do miss having long hair. I think that after I start school I'm going to get some extensions. And probably some lash extensions! Holla! ahahaha. I want the lash extensions now, but need to save my money. :(

Oh, so I have started watching Jersey Shore, and LOVE IT!!! ahahaha. It is hilarious! And shockingly, Tyler likes watching it too. Which is pretty funny. "I'm in Miami, I don't want girls studying for finals, I want girls studying for dick!!!" -Vinny. ahahaha LOVE IT!

Well, I think that's it for now. I'll keep you updated on Scott's job situation. :D hugs and loves to all!

OH YEAH!!!! go check out what Scott made for me: www.ashleybachman.com
yeah, I know, it's amazing! ahaha He did that all himself! Quite impressive if I do say so myself. LOL
