an Ashlyn adventure...
whoops i guess i didnt post this in october...when i say "lets go to starbucks or lets go on a road trip" that automatically means that there will be some sort of adventure involved. This weekend was no exception. Me and my childhood friend decided to drive 6hrs north to a town i had never heard of before until this year, to visit a friend attending Simpson University in Redding, ca. Boy what a trip. First off....i have driven 3hrs...max at a time....so 6hrs. 14hrs total-was a very different experience. California is flat. Why does everyone love this state so much...like there are pockets of nothingness-come on wagon trainers, california is not all that amazing from sacramento up to redding.
i learned a few things:
-its easy to speed when the road it flat for hours on end. then when you see that you need to go the legal speed limit, 70mph feels like 15mph.
-there are many big dead dogs on the side of the road or in ghetto neighborhoods (we got lost quite a few times)
-a GPS is a lifesaver! until it sends you in the wrong direction when trying to get home. "GPS do NOT tell me where i live!"-yes i argued with Jezebel (thats my GPS's name)
-there is no point in cleaning the windows at gas stops- those bugs are just drawn and have no respect for my beautiful car
-i don't like driving alongside huge trucks on bridges- i feel so enclosed- so i talk to myself aloud to calm my stresses
-make tons of CD's but make 2 sets (one for the trip there and one going home) the same songs that used to be my favorite are now the culprit of headaches
-make sure your passenger puts their seatbelt on...never assume they are smart enough to remember :)

dancing my heart away
I was able to go to several dances and every one of them were all so different and such a blast! This was def on my "list before i die" but...i never got asked to a dance, so i am officially adding it to my list. i hope to be asked to a dance before my wedding night...but i will survive if i have to waits haha.
Sadies-Sophomore Year- I got the privilege of going with a dear friend to me, Timothy Souza (Timmy). We went with a group whom I knew no one at but it was a blast! We were the best dressed there. Theme: Night In the Big City :we chose Hawaiian tourist.
First formal! Junior Year. Hume put on a formal for Hume kids and Calen Plouffe asked me to go with him. It was one of my favorite nights of the year.
First prom! Junior Year. Theme: Cinderella Story. Went with Calen Plouffe again. Our group consisted of several foreign exchange students and two other couples. The night ended with a Pancake Bar! First time I actually slow danced with real dance moves taught to Calen by Rich Baker.
BEST DANCE AWARD GOES TO: Winter Formal- Senior Year. Theme: A night at the Oscars. I had the best dance partner ever! Our group was pretty much fantastic. Our limo for the night was an old fire truck. We got dance lessons from amazing dancers. Dinner was fantastic. The night ended with Minute to win it games- boys vs girls. What a night to remember. This is where new friendships were established and old ones strengthened so much-all because of a high school dance.
WSM Barn Dance
One of my favorite WSM events planned!!
Hume dance fun. Summer 2010
Dance lessons taught by Christie Alvarado. Because my dad was not at Hume, Calen was again my dance partner. Square dancing was so much fun!
Hoe Down Dance- Location: Ark. This was one of my favorite memories at Hume that summer. Calen and I ended up dancing for the night with several other fun dance partners. Go square dancing!
