3. I love my coffee in the morning, but my tea at night.
4. Four is my lucky number.
5. Growing up I had a little baby lamb named Tinker Bell. I was crazzy for Cabbage Patch dolls, then came New Kids on the Block. NKOTB yo! What was I thinking?! Lol)

Here's Ashley's Questions:
- What is your naturalair color? Be honest!- Nothing exciting on this one... brown. What cha see, is what cha get. I have always wondered what it would be like to be a blond, though I know I would look ridiculous! If ever asked about my blond ambition again, I'll never admit it!
- Are you doing what you thought you'd be doing 10 years ago?- I am. I'm where I always wished & hoped I'd be. Let's just add another munchkin to the mix, & I'll be good!
- What is one thing you can't live without?- Hmmm... I would say my camera, but I'm going to go w/ my beloved coffee! If this mama hasn't had her two
five cups of Jo in the morning, there is no use for any picture taking! Zombies don't take good photos.)
- What is one of your guilty pleasures?- Ugggg...How much time do ya'll have! Haha. Well my number one would be that dang Reality TV. Oh how it sucks me right in! Darn you Bachelor! My super secret guilty pleasure though is... ALL the reality supernatural shows... Ghost Hunters, Ghost Adventures... I could go on, but am starting to get embarrassed! I guess I'm a wanna-be closet ghost hunter? It all intrigues me, & scares the craption out of me at the same time. Then I get conflicted w/ my Christian beliefs. Guess that's why it's my guilty pleasure!
- What was the best movie you've seen in the past year?- This is a tough question...? We are movie nuts at our house. I really enjoyed The Help, & also just watched Once. The music was amazing!
- What is your favorite song and/or musician/band?- One word. Adele. She just gets me. Lol)
- What is one thing you hope to accomplish in 2012?- LEARN how to get the most out of my slr (aka learn how to actually shoot great photos w/ it!) Ceecee (my Canon) has only been w/ me for a couple months, & I feel okay about the shots I've been able to get w/ her. Yes, of course I named her! By the end of 2012, I'd love to be shooting primarily in manual. We'll see!
- What do you enjoy doing in your spare time?- We'll if you follow me ya know.... photography + my Happy Jax boy! Then add blogging on to that, & here we are!
- If you had unlimited money for one week (and it had to be spent), how would you spend it?- I would give every person in the world one billion dollars, including myself, & finally by a camera bag & that lens I've wanted. No way that could backfire at all, right?!
- Who is your biggest influence now?- Honestly, my better half. I know it sounds all cheesy, but it couldn't be more true. Greg is just the best person I've ever met. Before him, I feel like I wasn't completely me... if that makes any sense? He has helped me grow into such a better person, just by being around him. The way he loves his family & always puts us first, is pretty darn amazing. I genuinely adore my fella, plus he is super hot! LOVE you babe)
- What is the most beautiful place you've ever seen?- I was maybe 6 years old, & my grandpa took just me to the beach for the day. I remember it being the most hazy, gorgeous, sunny day.We walked hand in hand through all the quaint beach shops, & he bought me the coolest kite ever! We spent the whole day on the beach flying that red kite. I can still remember holding his big strong hand, looking out at the ocean. I can picture the view in my mind, just like it was yesterday. It was such a simply beautiful special day. Sometimes a simple but beautiful place can turn into the most beautiful place you've ever seen, simply because of the person you're there with.
