The location.

We hiked out to the location of our wedding.
Thats the island in the distance.

A side view of the beach, we will be getting married on.

The view everyone will see while we are getting married. (hopefully the weather will be nicer)

where everyone will sit to watch us get married.

Dan and Jack and the beginning of the hike.

So thats the place. Hopefully the weather is a lot nicer then this day.

sleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep.

Is all I can think about right now. Iv been up since 5:30 this morning worked at Heritage until 12:30. I should have taken a nap when I got off from Heritage, but no, I had some energy so I took my dog on a long long walk (he really liked it). Now its 10:30 and Im at another job working and have been here since 3:00. I think Im going to be able to leave here at 12:00 (midnight). Ill cross my fingies. Then I have to come back to work at 8 in the morning. All I can think about is my pillow. sleep sleep, zzzzz! I wish.

SPRING?

Wow! Its really starting to look and feel like spring.
The sun feels so amazing, my eyes don't think much of it though. They've been so deprived of sun they can't adjust. Oh well, I would rather deal with headaches from the bright sun, than headaches from the rain.
Crossing my fingers in hopes it doesn't rain for a week or so.

My dog (JACK) is so amazing!

So last night while Dan and I were watching a movie, little Jack was at the foot of a chair. I thought he was being a good boy chewing on one of his toys. But to our surprise he was chewing on my power cord to my lap top, which happens to be $80 to replace. Since he's a puppy of course he doesn't understand what he is being punished for. So the only thing I could do was make him sit in the kitchen alone for 45 minutes. Which he did to my amazement, I think he could tell I was VERY angry.

Rings?

Yeah, so real rings are expensive so for the moment me and Dan decided to do something a little more our style.

The date!

So we set the date for May 3rd 2008. The plan is to get married out on the island in the middle of the Gastineau channel. It is the place where Dan and I, pretty much, fell in love! So it seems like the perfect place, its also BEAUTIFUL. Of course we need to come up with a plan B for if its crazy bad weather. Plan B hasn't been figured out yet, just a few ideas have been mentioned. The "reception" hasn't been set in stone yet either. I did, on the other hand, order my dress last night. I wont have it for quite some time, its being handmade! I cant wait!

Marry me!

So its official, after months of talking about it.
Dan finally asked me to marry him in the cutest way possible.
It was our year anniversary and to celebrate we went out to Zephyr for dinner. We walked threw the door and waited at the front to be seated. After a short time the Hostess came to greet and sit us. We picked a table in a quiet little nook, with romantic lighting. We checked out the menu and decided on what we were getting. Dan got the rabbit and I got a pasta dish with a side salad. As we waited for out food to cook, we had some good Dan and Ashleigh conversation. Dan mentioned he should get comfortable (he was wearing his sweater). So he unzipped his sweater and pushed his chest out. I noticed he had sewn red fabric letters on his shirt that spelled out "Will you Marry Me?". I just started laughing, and couldn't stop for a good few minutes. I loved it, and of course I said "YES!" I don't think I could have thought of a better way for this to have happen.
