About me

I'm 24 years old.  I live in Utah with my husband and two dogs, Bagheera and Bert.  My husband is referred to as housband--pronounced hoozband--he doesn't want his actual name on my blog, so I honor his request.  We were married April 2008, and it was a spectacular, sunny day; we love to laugh, and we're really good at making each other laugh.  I don't always blog about him, but I think he prefers it that way; regardless, I love him still and don't you forget it.

I live in the town I grew up in, I'm a dog lover, I love the color blue no matter how hard I try to love other colors, I like putting myself in other people's shoes, I think kids are the BEST, I want to be a welder, carpenter and guitar player, I've recently realized I'm not that tough, I love Park City and the state of California and if they were huggable, I'd hug them both; I'm often overwhelmed with life but I still love it. 

Also.  I love caramel apples.  I worry a little too much about what other people think about me and what I should be doing with my life.  I love good love stories, clean sheets and good friends.  I wish to become a beach bum.  I love swimming under stars and sitting outside on decks in the summer.

I love my camera and a good roll of film.  I love living simply, though I have way too much stuff and think about it a lot.  I'm totally imperfect and my house is a mess more often than I'd like it to be, but I guess that just gives me more excuses to hang stuff on my walls and organize my desk.  I love Jason Mraz, especially his live shows.  My family is most important to me.  I love photography and photographing people, especially faces and details.  I love to drive long distances and photograph landscapes.  I love taking photos of animals, too.  So... I guess you could say I just love photography. 

Nonetheless, that's me.  Hi.  My name's Ashley, and I think we just became friends.  Stop by sometime and say hi, k?
