Bridal Shower

First off I would like to thank all my family for throwing me 2 Bridal Showers!!!

My first shower was thrown by all the mom’s and my sisters at a cute little tea house in Sierra Madre which was for all my close family and girlfriends. I am still waiting on pictures from that one, so as I get them I will post them up here.

My second shower was thrown by my future Mother-In-Law Marcy. This was a cute garden party which was hosted at the beautiful home of Liz Baybak in La Canada. I was able to meet all of Marcy’s close friends and family friends that I haven’t been able to meet yet and I had a blast!

Marcy had several activities planned including, scrapbooking, Anna Q&A, a fun guessing game, plus a surprise showing of my championship riding video. We also had a wonderful spread of food and very cute decorations!

Here are some fun shots from the shower:

Back in Montana

We’re back home again, and trying to settle into the real world again.

I worked at Camp Cherry Vally for one week, and it was a dream. I never thought I could have so much fun in one week, and be working for 16 hour days… Life is definitely very exciting out on the island.

It’s very distracting to know that right now, there is an cove full of scouts playing games and having fun without me =)

Enjoy,
Ashton

Coming to LA

Hey All! Anna and I are coming to LA! Yea!

We’re leaving tomorrow morning, and our friends will be house sitting for us. We’re stopping in Las Vegas for a wedding, and then we’ll be in LA Monday Morning!

Unfortunately, we’ll only be in LA for a week…. =( *Sadness*

On the next Sunday, I’ll (Ashton) be going to Camp Cherry Valley for a week, and Anna will be coming home.

It is my goal to see all of my friends while we’re down in LA, so if you’re my friend, call me, and lets get together.

See you all soon,
<3

Quarterly Hair Cut

Yes, that time is upon us again for the quarterly hair cut. (We are about 5 weeks before the end of the quarter, but nonetheless, the time has come.)

Pics first, story later:

(Notice my inability to have a picture taken without a computer in the background… hahaha!)

Quick Story:
I’ve been trying to get Anna to learn how to cut hair. I mean c’mon! If she wants to be a real ranch woman who grows her own veggies, gets eggs from her own chickens, rides horses, and all that, she’s going to have to learn how to cut her children’s hair. And I don’t want to waste an hour driving to town to sit in a chair to pay a guy to mess up my hair. I’d rather get my hair messed up in privacy and save the money and time.

So Anna’s cutting my hair… Okay so she only used a shaver, and (as unwise as it was) I let Anna figure things out as she already didn’t really like doing it, and I didn’t want to completely scare her off by telling her how to cut my hair…

So she chose her own shaver lengths and started trimming the back of my head. Suddenly she says, “How about a buzz cut?”

“Uh…. I’ve never had my hair shorter than 1 1/2 inches… I don’t think so.”

“Ah C’mon, I think you’ll look great.”

“I don’t, just try to trim it down to an inch.”

(long pause…)

“….Too Late… Your getting a buzz cut.”

So Voila! I now have the shortest hair I’ve ever had, (except for a couple months after I was born).
