<br />
My sister and her husband have had there first child. My niece was born January 8th. She is such a beautiful soul. I love her so much. I have never felt the love I feel for her for anyone else, so I can only image how my sister feels. <br />

That is most of the high lights in my life in the past 5 months. I have logged on and read a few blogs but I noticed some of my favorite blogs that I follow have stopped updating and it's sad because I really have enjoyed reading their blogs. I need to find some new blogs to follow and I also want to thank those that I do follow that still update. It's lots of working keeping up on blogging so hat's off to those that take the time to update us on there life !! </div>

<br />
I can not believe that 2 months have crept by !! Wow just a couple of months ago I was so excited about my vacation to Dominican Republic and promised you all pictures and when I got back I have been so busy that I haven't had a chance to share my pictures with you or my funny stories..lol !!<br />
<br />
We had so much fun and the resort was beautiful !! I am sure you saw in one of my previous post how many cameras I took and boy did I have fun taking pictures with all those different cameras. <br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">We went on a couple of excursions while we were there. The first one was the sand buggies. We had no idea we would end up with mud all over us. It was so crazy you ride these things in the middle of the road and over in DR you can pass people in oncoming traffic and they drive so crazy it was scary but lots of fun. We drove them on the beach and then down dirt roads which led us to a cave. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">This is right before we walked down into the cave and jumped in cold water. The whole time we were walking down into the cave this dude was like you people are crazy they have snakes in the water that bite. I started to get nervous. But when it was my turn to jump I said screw it why not I am in DR in a cave let me do this.

We are so excited, I can't wait to just lay out on the beach and listen to the ocean and just enjoy some quality time with my lovely boyfriend !<br />
<br />
I have all my clothes packed early because if I wait until last minute I would be up all night trying to pack and I hate having that sort of anxiety. The only thing I need to pack the night before is all of my toiletries. I also need to decide where I am going to fit all 6 of my cameras I am bringing on vacation. A girl can never have to many cameras...right ? Since I am all into film cameras now. I am bringing 4 film cameras, one digital and my flip !<br />
<br />

I have had a lot going on these last few weeks. The most important thing is I am done shopping for my vacation...yippee !! The countdown is on and I am preparing for island mode. I just have two more weeks and I will be enjoying the sun in Dominican Republic and I can't wait !! <br />
<br />
In the meantime, I finally found a friend that was willing to take some time and model for me so that I can build my photography portfolio !! If you want to check it out head over to my new <a href="http://www.ashleymaureenphotos.blogspot.com/"><span style="color: magenta;">photography blog</span></a> ! Show me some love if you just like to look at pictures from time to time ! I had a lot of fun and I think I may be setting up another artsy photo shoot with someone else this weekend !<br />
<br />
Oh and I had a great weekend I went to a friends party and had so much fun and then on the way home I got a freaking speeding ticket for doing 52 in a 35 on some country road. I was so pissed because doing 52 in my car is like doing 35 mph ! I don't know how much it will be yet but I am just upset because I don't have any tickets on my record ! The cop was a real jerk and I told him I wasn't from around there and I didn't even see a speed limit sign ...I just feel like there is more important things happening in this world besides me driving at 52mhp. Give me a break. I can see if I was doing like 70 or 80 and weaving in and out of lanes but come on now, I feel like I was targeted because I have a sports car... I am so over it !! <br />
<br />
Other then that life is great and I am looking at taking a film photography class in June I am so excited about it. I also decided to take a little break from making jewelry and redesign my etsy shop and come back with fun pieces so that has been challenging but fun ! I promise I will update soon.</div>Ashleyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06340657038969725502noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3233842759799130249.post-69038440860110374402011-05-02T10:42:00.000-04:002011-05-02T10:42:20.027-04:00Prince William and Kate<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">I must say I am really happy for Prince William and Kate. They dated for a long time. I believe it was 7 or 8 years. It has to take a strong woman to date a prince ! I think she has handled the press really well seeing that all eyes were on her for the last few months. They both took it in stride. I know Prince William has a long history with the press and his feelings about what happened to his mother must haunt him seeing that the press chased his mother ultimately leading to her death. However he reminds me so much of his mom and how classy she was !! <br />
<br />
I couldn't wait to see the dress and then when I saw it I wasn't that impressed. This was her chance to really do something modern and just push the envelope a bit. I love the dress from the waste up but from the waste down I was disappointed, it took it back to the 80's for me at that point. I know she has guidelines to follow and it couldn't be anything normal in a since but she could have picked something better then that. To each is own she still looked pretty and it was cool that she did her own makeup ! <br />
<br />

I did like her second dress much better then the first one. It was still conservative but more modern to say the least. I personally think they will make it and they looked so happy and in love and I guess that is all that matters ! <br />

I must say I have a huge selection of nail polish but for the past year now I have been hooked to Sally Hansen Insta- Dry nail polish !! It literally dries in 60 seconds with one coat. I usually put two coats on and it dries in 2 minutes. I love it because most of the time I am painting my nails on the way out the door so this is perfect for me.</div><br />
<br />

If you haven't tried it yet you need to pick up a bottle. They run about $4.50 a bottle and you can get them at any drugstore or Walmart.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">What is your favorite nail polish ?</div></div>Ashleyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06340657038969725502noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3233842759799130249.post-15217338186142398042011-04-13T11:03:00.000-04:002011-04-13T11:03:30.498-04:00Spring Picture Fun<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">Boy how time flies when you are having fun !! Here it is April already ! I got my <a href="http://30isthenew20something.blogspot.com/2011/03/lomography.html"><span style="color: magenta;">Diana Mini Camera</span></a> in a few weeks ago and I have been having fun playing with it. They have all sorts of competitions on <a href="http://lomography.com/"><span style="color: #3d85c6;">lomography.com</span></a> and I have joined at least 4 of them. I am so excited !!<br />
<br />
I must admit shooting with 35mm film is harder then I thought it would be. My first roll of film I got developed only 6 pictures came out. I got so used to the digital world and seeing the pictures right away, that it was weird not being able to see if you got a good shot !! That is the beauty about the camera. You can not think you need to just shoot and be free with it. So here are a few photos I have taken with my new camera. <br />
<br />

Lomography moto is " Don't Think, Just Shoot " ! It's all about plastic cameras all 35mm and 120mm.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #cc0000; font-size: large;">They have a set of 10 Golden Rules:</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><ol><li><div style="text-align: center;">Take your camera everywhere you go.</div></li>
<li><div style="text-align: center;">Use it any time – day and night.</div></li>
<li><div style="text-align: center;">Lomography is not an interference in your life, but part of it.</div></li>
<li><div style="text-align: center;">Try the shot from the hip.</div></li>
<li><div style="text-align: center;">Approach the objects of your Lomographic desire as close as possible.</div></li>
<li><div style="text-align: center;">Don't think. (William Firebrace)</div></li>
<li><div style="text-align: center;">Be fast</div></li>
<li><div style="text-align: center;">You don't have to know beforehand what you captured on film.</div></li>
<li><div style="text-align: center;">Afterwards either.</div></li>
<li><div style="text-align: center;">Don't worry about any rules.</div></li>
</ol><div style="text-align: center;"></div>I love taking pictures because of the beauty of it. I also love to share my memories in scrapbooks and that motivates me to always take a good picture. However I have become so used to taking pictures and then saying let me see it ! I am over the digital grind and want to get back into the element of surprise by using a 35mm camera. I haven't used one since probably 1998 and have discovered there is still a whole world of people that still use them and are forgetting the rules and having fun with it !!<br />

It was apple cake and I had never tried it. I printed the recipe and I thought can I really make this myself ? I was not to confidant because everyone knows I can't cook as a matter of fact I hate cooking and I am one of the most pickiest eaters you will ever meet. So I did what anyone else would do... begged one of my parents to make it for me ..lol. When I got home yesterday to my surprise my dad made the apple cake just for me !! </div><br />

I have started making my jewelry for my vacation in a couple of months. All island inspired with a spring/summer feel ! I like to search the Internet for inspiration and use the natural stones and beads that I have. So far I made a fabulous pair of earrings with chain and yellow quartz, a lime green fresh water pearl necklace and this one....</div><br />

</div><div align="center">I don't have any pictures of the other pieces I have worked on this week but I wanted to know from my readers what you like to wear for the spring and summer ?

I usually travel with my best friend and cousin every year rather it's a trip to Vegas or a shopping spree in NYC we always make it a point to get together every year and do a little mini trip ! This year my cousin won't be able to go so we all decided to put our money aside and save for a nice vacation in 2012 ! However, I still needed a vacation soooo...<br />
<br />
It's been years since I really took a nice beach vacation with out my family. I have been doing what I like to call " working vacations " for the past few years ! Working vacations like going to Vegas and although that is fun you still need to Casino hop and try and see so much and going to NYC you have to do all kinds of shopping and to me that is work. I finally decided I don't want to casino hop or shop all I want to do is lay out on the beach and listen to the waves and that is about it ! <br />
<br />
So my boo and I decided that we wanted to do an island vacation and let me tell you it's consumed my life for the past 2 or 3 weeks. Just trying to decide where to go. I had to stop myself at one point and realize that there is some serious issues going on in this world and I am worried about were to go on vacation ??!? So I realized I am pretty lucky if that is the worst of my problems..ha ! Anyway at first I really wanted to go to Curacao which is in the Neitherlands but they only had one all inclusive resort that got horrible ratings ! So that got marked with an x real quick. <br />
<br />
<br />

I had to really sit and think where do I want to go because of course he left it all up to me ! So after many weeks of searching we decided to go to Punta Cana, Dominican Republic !! Whoop !! We are so excited about it plus I always wanted to go ! We are staying at an all inclusive beach front resort ! We have an upgraded swim up suite all we have to do is walk out the back of our room into a little garden terrace that has our own private jacuzzi and jump right into the pool ! Plus All the alcohol, food and water sports are included. There is six a la carte restaurants and 11 bars to choose from ! We won't have to leave the resort plus room service is included !! There is also a casino on the resort and much more!! May just can't come fast enough !! This will be our first all inclusive paid vacation and we are so thrilled about it ! We really don't have to worry about anything ! We booked a dream vacation !! </div>Ashleyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06340657038969725502noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3233842759799130249.post-65397418996692632192011-03-04T09:17:00.001-05:002011-03-04T09:19:48.107-05:00Birthday's Galore<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">Wow, how time flies when you are having fun !!

This is the first Valentine I have had in years, one that really went all out of his way for me. We celebrated over the weekend and I arrived at his house and he had roses for me and they were everywhere! He had them on the table and in his bathroom and hanging on the wall. It was very sweet and he even had one in his car for me ! He made reservations at this really nice resturant called Joey D's Oak Room. The ambiance was very nice and the food was good ! We had great dinner conversation and everything was perfect ! I was pleased with just that. Well once we got home and I went in his room he had rose petals all over his bed for me with a basket full of scrapbooking stickers ! </div><br />

<div style="text-align: center;">It was so sweet ! Everyone that knows me knows that I heart scrapbooking and I am always looking for stickers for my scrapbooks, you can never have enough and I just thought that was so thoughtful and sweet of him ! He also had a Hello Kitty card which he knows I love and it was a thank you card and it said thank you for being my Valentine ! I started tearing up because he actually thought about me and did something creative ! I like him and I am so glad we gave each other a chance to really get to know each other ! </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">I hope everyone had a wonder heart day full of love... muah ! </div></div>Ashleyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06340657038969725502noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3233842759799130249.post-55072472706885439062011-02-07T09:44:00.002-05:002011-02-07T09:48:26.180-05:00Jury DutyIts been a few weeks since I last updated you ! I've been super busy with birthday parties & weddings which I promise to update with pictures soon ! However at this very moment I am bored out of my mind because I have been selected for Jury Duty ! Why me and they have assigned me a judge so I guess this means I have to go to trail. I didn't bring anything to do not even a book. What sucks more is I'm sitting next to this weird lady that keeps yawning and breathing heavy and blowing her nose and I want to scream STOP it ! Dam doesn't she know I have OCD ! Like really, yeah seriously !! How many times can you yawn ?? I could be doing other things ! Wish me luck folks ! I hope I can get out of this !Ashleyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06340657038969725502noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3233842759799130249.post-33087346924699708912011-01-25T10:26:00.000-05:002011-01-25T10:26:52.798-05:00Spyware<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">I was listening to my favorite radio station yesterday on the way to work and I heard something that left me surprised and shocked for a couple of minutes. They had a segment on <a href="http://store.bigdaddyspy.com/">Big Daddy Spy Company</a>. It is a company where you can find spy ware to spy on people. They have everything from sunglasses to men's ties, to cameras hidden away in a tissue box. It's crazy how much stuff they have for you to spy on someone.<br />
<br />
What shocked me was they now have <a href="http://store.bigdaddyspy.com/Blueware-Ultimate-Bluetoth-Cell-Phone-Spy-Software-p/bdsblue.htm">software</a> where you can download on any cell phone and it only takes 5 minutes and then you can here every single conversation, text, email or anything that you do from your cell phone and the other person would have no idea. They were pushing the fact that this would be good for parents with there teenagers !! Let me say I am so glad I am not a teen anymore because my parents would have gotten something like this just because they were super over protective ! <br />
<br />
What scares me more is this would be perfect for those that like to stalk people. Like a crazy ex-boyfriend stalker this would not be good. It is just crazy how they make it easy for crazy people to get crazier ! It's weird they also say it's legal. How is it legal to secretly download a software on someones cell phone with out them knowing and look at there pictures and text messages and listen to there phone calls ? I don't know about you but that's crazy. That is why I keep an eye on my cell phone because you never know how crazy people are. </div>Ashleyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06340657038969725502noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3233842759799130249.post-44929629069738604942011-01-24T10:02:00.000-05:002011-01-24T10:02:24.931-05:00New Boo and Bling ...<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><div style="text-align: center;">Please forgive me for it has been awhile since I last updated you all.

</div><div style="text-align: center;">Me and the new boo have been doing so well. I really like him. It's almost been 4 months and we are having a blast. He is so sweet. This weekend we spent time together and cuddled and watched a movie and he made me a big breakfast ! He is so thoughtful and I am just smitten over him right now. Aww <3 ! He met my parents a couple of weeks ago and they like him so that is 2 thumbs up ! </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

Snowed in no work no nothing just TV and crafts ! Today was the first day I actually had to get out of the house and I went to Michaels to get some more crafts so I won't be completely bored out of my mind ! Tomorrow I have no work either because the roads are so bad and it has be declared a state of Emergency ! Oh joy ...right ??!! I was happy the first two days and now I am about to go crazy ! We haven't gotten mail in 3 days either and I ordered lots of crafts stuff on-line so I am waiting anxiously for it's arrival.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">A million YouTube videos later and lots of time I have made my first deco den project !</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">They are little pocket mirrors and as you can see the tops of them look like whipped cream & chocolate icing with sweets on top chocolate chip cookies, candy bars, donuts and a little bit of bling !! I love it...I will have to keep it in a small pouch so that it won't get ruined in my purse ! </div><br />
