Josh and Tiff said...: Thanks girl! I like the pic too. Josh gets that a lot from people....all the time. I personally, think that he and Stephen don't look anything alike other than the hair and stuff, but everyone else swears they look like twins. Lol! We had tons of fun! Have you and Butch ever been to New Orleans? If not, maybe it's somewhere ya'll need to take Rylan for a family vacation. The zoo was beautiful! It made us never want to go back to the one in Birmingham again. Lol! Aren't ya'll coming up on your 4th anniversary as well? Do you have anything planned...other than having a baby brought into the picture? :); March 04, 2009
Ashley said...: Yes we have our 4 year anniversary coming up, but it is soon after the baby will be born so we're not planning anything this year. We've went away every year and it will be a little different this year not going anywhere, but we'll be adjusting having a newborn around so I'm sure we won't really notice! lol. Butch got me an awesome DSLR camera for our anniversary already so I could have it when Rylan gets here, so we've got the presents covered! We'll survive I reckon! No we have not been to New Orleans together. I have been there, but didn't really get to explore. Maybe we'll be able to go there one day when Rylan can enjoy the zoo and stuff.; March 04, 2009
Josh and Tiff said...: Well, I guess Rylan is your "Happy Anniversary" gift for the both of you. Lol! The best gift in the world! I'm glad Butch got you a camera. That's a perfect gift! And I'm glad he gave it to you early. You better be taking TONS of pics with it! Have you gotten Butch a present yet? I think it would be a great idea for you and Butch to take Rylan to the zoo, aquarium, Imax, etc. when he gets of age. That will be sooo precious! It gives you just one more thing to look forward to with your child! And to take pictures of! :); March 05, 2009

Things you didn't know about us and would be just fine without knowing...

~ We have never been swimming together and we've been married for almost five years now. ~ I don't really like root beer...unless I make it home-made. I LOVE home-made root beer!!! ~ Joshua hates massages! ~ My car is almost never clean. ~ I can't stand when people dress like "twinkies" and I have NEVER wanted a twin or desired to have twins ~ Josh and I went to get pedicures together once...and if you tell him I told you that, I am going to have to kill you. Lol! ~ It is soooo stupid when people think that the milk has automatically expired because it has today's date on it. That is a "best if sold by" date. If people could predict the exact moment that milk went bad, don't you think they would be winning the lottery or something? ~ Josh is excellent with a guitar...and he can learn to play a new song in a matter of minutes...just by listening to it. ~ The first movie that we ever watched together was "Shrek 2" ~ I am not scared of spiders or snakes, but crickets and grasshoppers freak me out! ~ We play football in our bedroom. Seriously, we have a little, soft LSU football that we throw at each other. ~ Josh hates mayonnaise! ~ I hate salads! ~ Josh will not wear the same pair of socks twice...in the same day. Once he takes them off, even if he had them on for 30 minutes (literally) he must have new ones to put back on. I'm not kidding about this, by the way. ~ I will only eat sweets that certain people make. I am REALLY OCD about how people bake! ~ We ask people not to wear their shoes on our new carpet. ~ The restaurant we frequent the most is Chik-Fil-A ~ Joshua hates surprises, but to me there is nothing better!!! ~ We argue about who loves who the most, who gives the best presents, who cooks the best, who plays games better, etc. etc. We are always competing with each other. (This is Josh's doing, not mine) ~ I LOVE pjs!!! I wish I could just wear them everywhere! ~ We both sing in the shower...Joshua more than me. ~ My husband's nails are almost always longer than mine. ~ We have soooo many inside jokes that most of the time people have no idea what we're talking about! ~ We are both very random and OCD, though Josh would never admit it! ~ Josh takes the BEST care of me when I am sick! He does EVERYTHING for me! ~ I usually dislike foods because of their texture, not taste. Example: Mushrooms...they have a wierd spongy texture. ~ Josh likes oysters (and he loves them RAW...Ugh!). I hate oysters, but love mussels ~ My husband brushes his teeth longer and harder than anyone I know! ~I couldn't live without flip flops, but Josh only likes closed-toe shoes. ~ The clothes in my closet have to be in order by color or it will drive me crazy! ~ I used to think that Josh HAD to agree with me since we were married. While the reality is that Josh never says what I want to hear, he is sooo honest with me and I wouldn't have it any other way. ~ One of my biggest fears is public speaking! Even though we all know I am not a quiet person!

my purse

My sis-in-law gave this bag to me for Christmas...It's a Dooney and Burke and yes, it's real. I am not sure how much it cost because I did not buy it, which feels really nice, by the way.

I found this story on the internet...it's so sweet....kids never cease to amaze me....

"Last week I took my children to a restaurant. My six-year-old son had asked if he could say grace. As we bowed our heads he said, "God is good. God is great. Thank you for the food, and I would even thank you more if Mom gets us ice cream for dessert. And Liberty and justice for all, amen." Along with the laughter from the other customers nearby, I heard a woman remark, "That's what's wrong with this country. Kids today don't even know how to pray. Asking God for ice-cream. Why, I never." Hearing this, my son burst into tears and asked me, "Did I do it wrong? Is God mad at me?" I held him and assured him that he had done a terrific job and God was certainly not mad at him. An elderly gentleman approached the table. He winked at my son and said, " I happen to know that God thought that was a great prayer." "Really?", my son asked. "Cross my heart." Then in a theatrical whisper he added (indicating the woman whose remark had started this whole thing), "Too bad she never asks God for ice cream. A little ice cream is good for the soul sometimes." Naturally, I bought my kids ice cream at the end of the meal. My son stared at his for a moment and then did something I will remember the rest of my life. He picked up his sundae and without a word walked over and placed it in front of the woman. With a big smile he told her, "Here, this is for you. Ice cream is good for the soul sometimes, and my soul is good already."
