New Addition..

As you can see in the picture above I finally convinced Brandon to get a dog! She is a little spunky one, but she is so much fun so far. I will let you know about our little journey with her and if anyone has any advice on puppies please let me know! She is 9 weeks old and she is a min pin!

Congratulations!!

I just wanted to congratulate Tyler and Shaylee Britt on their marriage. Their wedding was on June 20th and it was so pretty and I cannot tell you how creative the Britts and Struchens are. I wish I just had half of their creative juices. It did rain during the ceremony, but it turned out to be a great night. They have to be the cutest and funnest couple that I have ever met and I cannot wait to see them as they start their lives together.... Congrats again you 2! I wish I had some pics, but spacey me forgot the camera! Sorry everyone!

So I just wanted to post a little more of our honeymoon pics so here they are....

I learned something new the first day that I was there, I found out that a Rooster is a male chicken. Yes I did show my husband that I was a ditz our first day of our honeymoon. There were chickens everywhere you went. You would be laying on the beach and there would be a chicken walking right on there with you. It was kinda crazy!

This is in the Marriot hotel that is an awesome hotel to go around and tour


This is at the Luau we went to and it was so much fun to see.
The 2 pictures above are on our Sunset Cruise to the Na Pali coast and it was so fun to see all the dolphins swimming right by our boat and we actually saw a couple whales. That was probably my favorite adventure that we went on.

This is at the Dukes restaurant that is right by the Marriot and it was so good. Everyone told us that we had to make it there and we sure were glad that we went. We had an awesome time and I cannot wait until we can get back there. I had so much fun getting to know more about my husband and starting my adventure with him.

Slacker....

So now that we have been married for 10 weeks now I think I better update our blog. Our weddng was so good and it turned out just as I wanted. I still do not have my pictures back so once I get them I will post some. We went to Kauai Hawaii for our honeymoon and we had an awesome time. It rained most of the time, but it gave us a lot of time to drive around the island and see how beautiful it is. Here are some pictures from there...

This is us in front of our hotel and also at the first beach we went to see!

Girls Night out!

So I am just thinkin about the wedding and totally spaced to tell everyone of what I got to do today. Last night my sister got a hotel for her (Shannon), Jaime, Amy, my mom and me. We went to dinner at Spencer's, which was delicious and then went back to the room and hung out. Today we woke up and went to breakfast and then got ready and went to Massage Envy and all got a massage, it was fantastic!! We hung out until the rehearsal and went to that and then went to dinner at Marie Calendars. It was such an awesome day and I want to thank my sister Shannon for getting the hotel room for the girls. She is such a thoughtful person and I am really lucky to have her as a sister. Also, I want to thank Jaime for being a great sister as well and Amy for being an awesome sister in law. Also, my mom! She is the greatest mom a daughter could ever ask for. Thanks girls for the wonderful night and day!

Anxious!!!

Hello Everyone! I am up at 10:30 the night before I get married. This will be my last post being a single woman. The next time I post I will be the happiest girl on earth since I will have the man of my dreams married to me and I will be Ashlie Edwards, that has a nice little ring to it doesn't it?! I don't know about anyone else, but I am pretty dang excited to get married and have the best day of my life here! I think my family is ready to have this over with since it has been pretty stressfull the last couple of weeks and I have been kinda on edge (my work will probably be greatful to!).
I just want to let Brandon know how much I love him and how I cannot wait to be his wife. It seems like yesterday that we had our first date and know it is our wedding day, how time flies! We will be heading off to Hawaii on Sunday so when I get back I promise I will post some wedding photo's and honeymoon photo's.
I also want my family to know how much I love them and thank them for all the support with this wedding. I am also so thankful for my new family. I cannot even express how excited I am to have all of these people in my family. I am pretty sure I am the luckiest girl ever to have a great family and marry into a great family. I cannot wait to get to know the Edwards and Fitzgerald families a lot more!

Well I am going to try and sleep now, but I really don't think I will sleep much so wish me luck!!

Birthday Surprise!

So as everyone knows Brandon's birthday was on March 7th. Well my step-dads is on March 15th, so me and my mom thought that we would surprise the men with something that we thought that they would enjoy. On March 14th we took the guys to breakfast and Jims and they opened their surprise. They got a certificate to go and fly a plane out at a place called the Leading Edge Aviation. Here is Brandon's response to the surprise......

Needless to say he was pretty surprised and quite nervous! I felt really bad and kept telling him that he did not need to go if he did not want to. Here is Ricks response to the surprise....

He was so excited to go! We left breakfast and went out to the place and I don't think Ihave ever seen Brandon so nervous in my life! I yet again asked him if he wanted to do it and he said "I better go because if I don't I will regret it." Well it was our turn to go and our instructor was a cute young girl and she first took us around the plane and showed us what they had to do everytime before flying. We then got in the plane and it was mine and Brandon's turn to go first. We put our little headsets on and the instructor got permission to go up in the air and we were off. Once Brandon got up in the air he was having a blast! He got to steer the plane and the way they do it is with their feet which he said was really hard to get used to. We went up Immigration Canyon and back down Parleys Canyon. We did a couple take offs and landings and a couple of other fun things. It was the best experience for all of us! After we got back, the adventure was on for Rick and my mom and I don't know who was more nervouse my mom or Brandon. She really didn't want to go, but we made her go!! I really suggest anyone that likes adventures to go and do this. It is really not that expensive at all to do! Here are a few pictures of our adventure......

The first picture is us in front of the plane that we got to go in and the second picture is us with our headsets ready to go!

Here is Brandon ready to drive the plane!

These are the pictures that I took as we were flying around. The view was amazing!! It was a perfct day to be up in the air!

This is all of us with our instructor!
