Ashley decided (on her own) to be add a solo in the the little classes Christmas program. She loved that twirly dress. Anyone know where I can buy another one next year, it was a gift?
This is the first sitting with Santa. We have been several time over the years but she would not get near him. This year, she was more than ready. She told him she wanted 10 gifts, apparently she did not understand that you were suppose to list them.
Ashley was Elvis for Halloween. She came in second at 2 costume contests. Actually she and her dog Quigley came in 2nd in the City Howl o'ween contest. Always a bridesmaid, never a bride...
This is Ashley and Mike at Cousin Brian's (Mike's nephew) wedding to the fabulous Miss Erin! Mike and his little monkey really did a lot of dancing that night at the reception.
We had a great birthday party, pirate themed of course. But on Ashley's actual birthday we went for a golf cart ride, made her picture and then came home to eat bacon, biscuits and grits (her request).
We got Ashley in July 2005 and every year celebrate it with eating out and give her one of her China gifts we purchased in China. We ate at Mikata (yes, I know Japanese but she loves their rice) and then gave her a "Pucca" doll. Pucca is a very popular Chinese Disney female cartoon character. Our friends Doug and Kim joined us, they are waiting parents for their China baby. We had fun!
