I Found My Car!

I cleaned my car today, and ohhhh how I wish I had a before and after picture. In fact, I'm going to find a similar before and after picture on the interweb.


Before

After


I don't think my car has EVER been as messy as it just was. I feel very accomplished for cleaning it, so I thought I would share my experience with the world :D



Anyway, can you guys believe that Christmas is in 3 days?! I'm oh so excited. We weren't planning on having any presents this year, but my wonderful aunt got my family and me lots and lots of presents from her trips. She has recently traveled to New York and Amsterdam and got us some things from both locations. I can't even express my gratitude. She is such a kind person! She reminds me of the true meaning of Christmas. :]
Anyway, I have spent a lot of time watching Christmas movies and drinking hot coco, as everyone should this time of year. My favorites are The Polar Express and Elf :] I can't really say that "lately" I have been watching them because honestly, I watch them year round. Especially Elf:] They are such warming, comforting, classics. They are the kind of movies that make you feel fantastic inside :] So, you guys should tell me your favorite Christmas movies in a comment. If I haven't seen them, I will definitely rent them and if I have seen them, we can start a conversation about it. Sound good? Good. :]

Thanks for reading,
Ashley.

Merry Christmas

Hey everyone :] I just wanted to take a minute and tell everyone Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. I love all of you so much and want to thank you for being in my life and always supporting me. I wouldn't be here without every single one of you, and you all should know that. You all play such a huge role in my life. I'm so grateful that I'll be able to spend the holidays with family and friends. (Jordie!) The Christmas season would not be the same without all of you.



For those of you who are interested, here's a peek at my life.
School is going awesome. I have good grades, good classes, and best of all, I have good friends. I have never actually genuinely liked school until this year. I almost look forward to going each day. I love PG and I'm proud to say "I'm a Viking." :]
Dance is going AMAZING. I love it so much. We just had a recital, and although we completely messed up the first dance, we did awesome on the second one. However, I messed up.. But everyone said they didn't even notice so that makes me feel better. Unfortunately, I don't have the link to the video, but if you go to my facebook you will be able to see it there under "my videos." So go take a look and give me some feedback! I'm looking for more of a challenge so I might find a class that is more advanced, but I don't want to do that if I look like I can't do the dance level I'm doing know. So please, be honest with me! :]



Jordan - Can you believe we will be seeing each other in 6 days? I sure can't. I am SO excited though! It has been way too long girl. We are going to have such a blast! I literally don't think I can wait any longer :o What am I going to do!? It's even worse that you aren't getting any of my texts. Which is super lame because I text you ten times every day. Maybe even more lol. Yeah, probably more :p Anyway, drive safe when you come up here. The roads will probably be pretty bad. I will pray for you lots! Love you best friend :]



Garett - Hey punk, text me. I love your guts. I will text you back, I promise :] Merry Christmas :] I hope you had a wonderful 2010 and have an even better 2011.



Brent - I dunno if you still read this, but if you do, than Merry Christmas. Thank you for everything. And by the way, you owe me for not coming to my recital and not taking me to temple square :p Just sayin :p Nahh kidding. You don't have to do anything except come to the next recital and have a fantastic Christmas. Don't get me a present, I don't deserve one. Good luck on your new independent life.
