So we have been talking about this job opportunity that has presented itself to us for the last little while and we have just made the decision to go.... We are going to move to Chicago for the summer and Dal is going to sell security systems..... it is really going to be a great thing... hopefully we can get some debt paid off and start heading in the right path.... It is a little scary, but i think we can manage. We are going out there with Bryce and Jamie's' friends, Ben and Jen... and it is going to be a blast!!! any way i will keep you posted on the dates and stuff when we leave and come back..... love you all!

Seattle!

Well Dallas and i got invited to go to Portland/Seattle two weeks ago!! It was amazing! Bryce and Jamie had to go up there for business, and invited us to go with them!!! we Left on Wednesday the 4Th, and drove for 12 hours up to Portland. We stayed at the Red Lion Hotel. Then on Thursday we walked around and sight saw most of the stuff in Portland, after we were done there we went a visited Jamie's Aunt and Uncle in Beverton!! that was cool Jamie doesn't see them very often.... Also it was so cool because they have two birds and one of them dances apparently..... So they turned up Ne-Yo and jammed hard core!! it was so awesome because they aren't the youngest people, but that didn't stop them from turning up the stereo to 75!!!! ha! Any way, after that we made the 3 hour drive up to Seattle!!! Our Hotel was called the Edge Water........ why?? because it was literally on the edge of the water, well actually it was on a Pier!!! WAY COOL! Then we spent the next two days walking around the markets and fruit stands, and museums, just taking in the city!!! On Saturday night we decided to go up to the space needle and have dinner, well the elevator up to the restaurant is about 600 feet tall then when your up there you can see the entire city and Bay, because the restaurant rotates all they way around, as you are sitting there eating!!! It is so crazy! after dinner Dallas and i were too tired to walk back to our hotel so we took a cab!! FUN! the next day we needed to be up at 6 to make the 14 hour drive home...... well when we woke up at 6 (well really 5 because of daylight savings (boohoo)) it had snowed and rained the night before so here we are in our little Toyota Carola trying to climb a mountain when the snow vehicles are spreading dirt and not salt!!! well...........we didn't make it! so we turned around and drove on the shoulder back to the Sea-Tac Airport and flew home!! wow, what an expensive trip!!! not for us..... but hey Bryce and Jamie.... you guys wait until we get rich!!!!! Needless to say, we had an amazing time!!! I loved Seattle, and i would love to live there!!!! but probably won't!!! :)

Dallas, Bryce and I decide to take advantage of the very cheap fruit and bread!! Yummy!!

We went to "Sport" a sports bar and spent five hours watching the Jazz game and various other games! (Not mine and Jamie's idea)

This is us eating dinner at a five star restaurant called the Space needle!! Nice shirt and mustache Jose!!!!

Jamie and Me at the top of the Space needle!

The view from the Top!!

Hmmmm............ what to do?!?

Well we have been going through a rough patch lately..... nothing we can't handle... but still rough! Well we got to thinking, and we decided to Look into the Air Force for Dallas to go into.... it is a really really great opportunity and i think we are gonna take it!!! Hopefully! Well I just wanted to update you all let me know what you think!!!

Livin' The Great Life (yeah right!)

That's what were doin'............. livin the Great Life!!! HA! I wish that was the case! This week has been *excuse my french* SHITTY!!! From starting out at rock bottom to digging a hole under rock bottom and jumping in it then sinking a few feet...... A lot has happened these last few weeks that would make a person wanna just give up, but on the flip side... a few things have happened to make it possible to see the light at the end of the tunnel!!! We just started a new job were i can work from home and Dallas can kind of work form home, if any of you wanna hear about it, i think i can help you out and get you a job too!!! Its really gonna be great once i can get all of the crap off us so we can start moving forward!!! anyway, i love you all... thanks for reading. Talk to you soon!!
HAPPY HOLIDAYS!
Love Ashleigh & Dallas (sort of)


P.S
i just realized that the last post i did said that we just started a new job as store managers and brick masons.... well those are old news now... ;)

Fun Family Outing

So Dallas, Kobe and I went on a family date. It was so much fun. We went up to gateway and walked Kobe around and went into all the stores. Then we went to dinner at a little mexican place!! I had so much fun!!!

Ok here it is!!! an update!!!

Currently,

Dallas is working as a brick mason part time and a tile/carpet installer the other part time. He doesn't totally love it but the people he works with are nice enough..... i should hope so, my Uncle Brian is his boss when it comes to brick laying! he is really hoping to get into sport journalism we are just working on getting into school and stuff.

I (Ashleigh) have just started a new job as a store manager at a carpet company. I am the receptionist/floor sales manager/personal assistant..... it sounds like a lot, but i am posting this at work right now..... so i'm not very busy!!! :) Anyway, i love it! it is really laid back and fun.

Kobe, our puppy isn't so much a puppy anymore!!! He has an appointment to go and get his shots and a hair cut done next week....

And thats most of our story for now. I have a few wedding pics i am going to post, but other than that we are pretty boring!!!

Us getting married!

i'm such a goof ball,.

thats us being goof balls!!!

Dallas was crying like a baby all day, and i am just happy to be alive!

my daddy walking me down the isle!

I am really trying to get all my wedding pictures figured out so i can post them. Sorry i am trying! any way, Married life is fabulous!! I Just Love Dallas, and he just loves me! we are doing great..........................its hard though! don't let me fool you!

We got a new puppy, Kobe Cuzz Rufus Nelson. :)

He is a miniature Schnauzer! and i am loving him TO DEATH! He is such a good dog and he only poos and pees in the house at Casie's, Jamie's, and my grandma's house.... never mine! HA! and that's only sometimes! he loves to play with other dogs, especially big ones! Piper and Fuzz are his best friends!



so just so you know, i so used to make fun of people who talk about there dogs like they are children...... but i do it now too. and if you have a dog you know what i am talking about, if you don't have a dog..... you can't laugh at me because you don't know!!!
Love you all!
