Jack & Ashley Holler

You Don't Always Get To Pick Who You Share Your House With!

2010-03-18T22:55:00.000-07:00

For the last few months Jack and I have been experiencing all that people experience when they move in to their first house. We have been embarcing the cold because we don't want to play for the heater in our gas bill, we have adjusted to having to do our own dishes and laundry, and we have even enjoyed planting our first garden together. Right now we are realizing that because we have so many different types of plants in our yard we are getting a lot of different types of bugs inside the house. Now anyone who knows my husband knows that he is not the might bug fighter. He hates bugs in the house. I hear at least three times a day " Ashley!!!!....come get it!! I am getting a little worried because I did here him having a conversation with a spider in our bedroom the other day. I will keep everyone posted on my husbands health.

P.S. I always like including pictures with my blog even if they are posed. I asked Jack to give me a scared face and this is what I got. It was too funny not to post it.

A Monumentous Weekend !!

2010-03-01T10:42:00.000-08:00

Two very exciting things happened this weekend:

Jack and I finished our first box of laundry soap. It took us three months, but we did it. I feel so grown up, with doing my own laundry and cleaning up after myself.

The other event that we celebrated this weekend is that we finally hung up something on the wall. We had been holding off scared of putting holes in the wrong place and having to live with it. It was good to finally have a weekend day off together. I made waffles for breakfast and we watched moves together most of the day. I truly love being married and having our own house together.

Grandpa re- posted

2009-11-14T13:27:00.000-08:00

So awhile ago I blogged about my Grandpa being very sick. He has since then passed away. I have deleted the earlier blog because My sister informed me that the baby in the picture was not me and was in fact my sister. She always finds a way to at me. So I would like to write the same message and I will add a picture later when I find one that is surly me.

So after a week of worrying about my Grandpa and his health we have finally gotten the news that my Grandfather will be going home tomorrow...Yeah!!! My Grandpa is the strongest man I know. He is a family man who served in the Navy to support and provide for his family. He has taught me valuable lessons like respecting adults, no chewing gum, elbows off the table, and he also taught me to be a pretty good shot with a 22 rifle once I figured out which eye to close. He has given our whole family his great sense of humor and he is loved by us all. He is an amazing man and I am blessed to be in his family.

I love you very much Grandpa and you will always be a huge part of our family.

So many things!!!!

2009-10-04T22:15:00.000-07:00

Life for Jack and I have been pretty busy. We both go to school a lot and work a lot too!!! In school I am in an art class where I am making pretty interesting projects. Math is going well and Jack is really enjoying his Biology class so we won't talk about his math class.
I am in the process switching stores. I will be moving from the Cerritos store to the Cypress. I will still be doing the same job just with different people. I am excited for the change but I will miss my friends.
One of my favorite activities is to take Lily outside and let her run around with the other dogs on the block. It is so funny to see the small dog and the big dogs running around with each other. All the neighbors get a good kick out of how Lily knows just how move not to get run over. Well most of the time.

We had super Saturday at church the other day and I had a blast. I made a wooden sign with Our last name on it and also learned to etch our last name in the bottom of glass pans. I really enjoy crafts.

I started my volunteering with a program in Long Beach where I mentor a child once a week for ten weeks. I am glad I'm doing this. It was fun we made bracelets and a magazine collage.
Jack is still a bike maniac. He is super skinny. He loves sweating and breathing heavy, I guess.

My uncle Albert Had his 50Th birthday and my Cousin Jenny threw him a surprise birthday party and it was awesome. Besides the expression on he his face my favorite part was that I got to be with all my cousins on my mom's side. We are going up so fast.

Jack also had a birthday I forgot to blog about. We had a good time. We got some of his friends from work and we all went rock climbing. I was able to climb up three walls which amazed me, and of course Jack was good at it. We also went out and had a good dinner and his is now 25 which means he can finally rent his very own car. Yeah.. I love him so much...
Jack and I are also looking for our first house. We are about twenty days until we go into escrow if all works out. I am excited for a new experience. We will keep posting as it all becomes more real.

Our Week Together!!!

2009-07-17T23:01:00.000-07:00

Since my mom went to West Virginia for a week it gave Jack and I a chance to play house. I have decided that I really like being grown up and taking care of myself and our home. I want so much to me a house wife. We have a very eventful week. Of course we still worked full time so the things we did were limited. We went to six flags on Tuesday which was our two year anniversary. We had a great time, got exercise, sun and had a lot of fun. We rode all the big rides until I felt sick but of course it was worth it. We also had a romantic dinner together with of course candle light. Here are the pictures I took plus pictures of Jack on his new bike, with his dad and brother Dave.

Busy but not doing much.

2009-06-25T10:14:00.001-07:00

Life here has been extremely busy, but not really fun. Work is still doing good even though that is where we spend most of our time. School has about two weeks left and then that should free up some time. Mostly I have pictures of how cute my puppy can be. So my husband is pretty cute he even got me flowers last week. I really do love him. We have dine a little house hunting but nothing yet in or price range and that will let us keep Lily.

Life in a Flash!!!!

2009-05-25T23:48:00.000-07:00

Life here in the California Holler home has been very busy of course. Ashley went to her first womens conference and had a great time doing service and eatting lots of good food. I also enjoyed spending time with just the girls and taking a break form school and work. As soon as I got back from Utah I had to jump right back in to work and it was soon finals time at school. We have sence finished our finals and this school semester.Summer school starts soon so Im resting while we can. I have make three cakes for people and made some spending cash. Im also getting more skilled in my decorating with is good for me plus its a change from essay writing and office max.

Happy Valentines Day #2

2009-02-15T22:24:00.000-08:00

I am so blessed that I have someone to love one Valentines day. The day didn't start out to loving since both of us had to work all day and night. After work I rushed home and made two batches of cupcakes since I burn the first batch and cooked a pizza for my Jack's dinner. I decided to cut the pizza into heart shapes and the cupcakes were pink of course he was so happy that he ran out to get gas and stop to get me a very cute card. Oh Im glad I married a romantic(hahaha). If you know Jack he's not the romaatic but I love him any ways. I think as long as I never question whether or not he loves me I am a lucky woman. School has been very busy and then we also have work which is getting more demanding. I am interviewing for the last time hopefully, tomorrow for a superviser position and a pay raise so I don't see a calmness anytime soon. I miss all my family so far away. Love you all and I hope your Valentines day was filled with love. Also adding a picture of my new hair cut tell me what you think.

Lily Update

2008-09-18T16:43:00.002-07:00

I absolutly love my dog! She is amzing but she isn't cheap. We took her to the vet because she was ichy and they weren't really able to tell me why. They just said she has allereys and sensitive skin. We are so blessed to have her. She learns fast. She also has cute habits like hopping around and when I lay on the floor ahe tries to dig into my head so I'll be holding her. She is such a good dog. She has been a little sick latly but she is getting better.

I am also glad to report that Jack is now a Hemlet wearing bicycle rider. He doesn't like it very much but he really likes his head they way it is, except for the hair of course. So that is a happy report right!!!

The Amazing Jack!!!!

2008-09-18T16:43:00.001-07:00

So Jack has been very busy late but has again found his love for exercising. He has been running daily and has gotten up to running four and half miles all at one time. When he doesn't run he is also likes to ride is bike to the beach and back. After one of his exercises he came home all excited and happy. He was running and jumping around. He then starting to jump up and down and asked me to tell him how far his feet got off the ground. When he jumped and wasn't happy with the distance that I saw he was determined to show me that he could jump over the furniture. So he moved the chair and proceeded to jump over it. I was very amazed that he could clear the chair I just had to get a picture. I was not easy to get a picture which meant Jack had to jump over and over and over and over again until I got the picture. So he truly is my Amazing Jack!!!!

AND YES THIS IS THE BEST SHOT THAT I COULD GET!!!!! NICE BUTT, RIGHT?

Time is going way to fast!!!!

2008-09-18T16:43:00.000-07:00

I haven't blogged in so long and so much has happened. I still need to blog about out vacation in West Virginia, but don't have that much time. So last month I offered to make a cake on the last sunday of every month for a meeting that Jack and I had been attending. So I also needed a cake for a bon fire that our street was havving and I found the perfect cake. It was most likly the best tasting cake I've ever made. We had a great time and everyone really appriciated my cakes. (sorry for the spelling)

Summer Vacation!!

2008-08-12T20:04:00.000-07:00

Jack and I went to West Virginia this summer and I have been behind. I have awesome memories of cooking, sewing, and farm life. I learned how to feed and take care of animals, make butter, soap, and many crafty things. I also learned need to have God in my life from my grandma and my hard working and sudborness from my grnadma. I love all tha I have learned from my trips to the farm and was very excited to share them with Jack. He wasn't as excited as I was but how could he, he didn' t know what to expect. I know that he had a good time and especially enjoied the time off. Here are some of the picture I took.

The barn is in the center of the side yard its the first thing you see when you go outside.
This is the upper chicken coupe, where the ducks live and the injured animals.
And this is the lower chicken coupe where there are lots of chickens and eggs of course.
Old rusty horse shoes, chickens and ducks.
This is the oppistie side of the house and the four car garage. My grandpa built this garage and laid the drive way. It is beautiful.

Jack learned and drove the tracker around the farm
This is my grandparents old dog that is have problems with cancer but he is an awesome dog.
The kitchen is small but we love working close together.
This is the town liberary. It s moblie home and very cute.
These are Jack's legs after his first day of weed eatting.

First Anniversary!!!!

2008-07-15T22:23:00.000-07:00

Hey well as most of you already know yesturday was Jack and I's first year wedding aniversary. We had a very awesome day together. In the morning he woke up before me and got me my all time favorite breakfast of Burger King cini mini's. I love them they are so good but not really good for you. Then we did a walk jog. Jack jogged and I walked our dog Lily and the neighbor dog George. Just a little side note: Lily is doing very good, she sleeps all night, has just started training and can sit, a anwser to her name, and knows the word No. We are still working on potty training and the barking. She is an amazing addition to our family and Im sure that God picked this dog for me. After our exercise, we turned in our financel aid and I only have to pay 34 dollars for all my classes next semester. Then we went to the bank and then Jack was great and went mall walking with me and he was very patient. In the mall I bought and new pink collar and a blue cow for Lily. I also got a shirt that says security on the back. I put up a picture later. Jack also purchased a new watch and I up graded my rings. Pictures will come soon. We also at lunch at Olive Garden with was wonderful as usual. When ate dinner at Macoroni Grill with Mom and I got to take a nap not in that order. Lily had dog training too so we split up for that. After class, Jack and I cut into our One year old wedding cake. The cake was pretty good and we will always have the memories. I am still so much in love with my Jack. He is very supportive and really caress for me. I am so blessed to have found him and for him to be my Husband. On another side note Jack has a new calling as the Cub Scout Bear leader. Jack doesn't show it that much on the outside But I think he is really excited. We are also signed up to take the Temple prep classes this summer. So in the end life is good just fabulously. School has two weeks left and then off to West Virginia. We miss our far away family and Think of you guys often. Love all.

Baby Lily

My Baby!!

2008-06-18T16:14:00.000-07:00

So I went to the pound and a week later I am the proud new owner of a Baby puppy. Her name is Lily, which is the name the pound gave her and she already anwsered to it so I left it. She is very attached to me which I love. She follows me around and likes me better than Jack. The cats are adjusting. J.J. could absolutly care less, and Alyssa tries to attack her ever once in a while. I am so happy even though having a puppy is a lot of work and she makes me tried but it is most definitly worth it. Pictures in the next blog.

2008-06-12T22:02:00.000-07:00

Just posting my lastest cooking projects and I'm pretty proud of them. Summer school is going pretty good. Lots of work but not really hard. Jack is working and being just awesome. I really don't have much else to say.So enjoy!!!

Las Vegas Summer '08

2008-06-02T18:18:00.000-07:00

Hey everyone look at me Im finally have a new blog. So just a quick update. School is out and finals are over. Summer school starts tomorrow so this is kind of late. Since Jack and I have one week in between school, we decided it would be a good time to go to Vegas and see some family. We hadn't made any real plans of what to do once we got there but that didn't stop us from having a great time. On Friday I had my princess party and it turned out just fine. Two parties down two more to go. Then I also went with Emily to the Tanning place, and it was definitly an experience. I of course burned because my skin is not use to see the light, but now I have a really nice tan and I can say that I've been tanning. One more thing to cross of my list of things to do. That night we also went to the movies and saw Iron Man which was pretty good, and ate at a Mexican Resturant were I made a foul of myself trying to figure out what a dough cup was? Long humiliating story. Saturday Jack and Emily went to the Richard Petty driving experience and got to ride along at 165 miles per hour. I went to Great Harvest which is the best bread shop I've ever been too. Then when Jack got back we went to M&M World which was absolutly amazing. I could not believe all the M&M stuff they make. I purchased a Back scrater and some M&M's. We also checked out the Coke Cola place which was small but still interesting and Jack got some new Adidas for running. That night I spent the night at Marylin and Jimmy's house and really injoyed waking up in the morning with Alexis and Grace. They are both so cute. On Sunday we went to Church which is always an experience with Grace. I also went to primary for the first time and had a blast. Once back at the Holler's house Amy and I spent a good part of the afternoon making dinner while Jack ran around with the kids. We had such a wonderful time in Las Vegas and it was good to beable to get there and just relax. I really wished we lived closer to family. Love you guys.

We have Sunflowers!!

2008-05-08T13:02:00.000-07:00

My sunflowers have finally bloomed and they are little but beautiful!!!

Oh Happy Days!!!

2008-05-08T12:24:00.000-07:00

I have been working in the kitchen for two straight days and my arm is sore. On Tuesday I had my Tastfully Simple party. So I woke up at 8 30 and started by making bread, which I never want to do again. Each step in the process takes time. And while the bread was rising I made six different dips, which eguals more stirring. Then I made three loafs of bread and two cheese balls. I really like the food but I wouldn't recommend making all the food in one day. The same day I also tried to donate blood but I had not eatten very well and my iron wasn't high enough so I only was able to register to be a bone marrow donator. The party was a good time and I was able to inform some people of a company they hadn't heard of. This is the bread dip holder I made, it turned out pretty good.

I also made a cake that day because i like to over load myself and accomplish a bunch. The cake didn't turn out exactly like I wanted it to but it was ok. There was suppose to be a bow on the top but that was a mess, so here is the end product.

Then the next day was my Friend Nicole's Birthday and again I was making a cake. I really enjoy making cakes and Im glad that I have reasons to make them.

Thats the end of my two day cook-a-thon?

We also got a new camera of cousre. Its a little slower but Its a camera and It works.

Update

2008-05-01T12:15:00.000-07:00

Im so sad. I lost my camera. Im making another cake and My first sunflower has bloomed and I can't even take a picture. So three more weeks of school and life is good. Hey sister in law could you guys send me those pictures I would appricate it. Thanks I love you guys. Kissingryn3@yahoo.com

P.S.
I could really go for an Hawaiian Texasan shaved ice thingy.

Just a quick update!!!

2008-04-17T20:22:00.000-07:00

I haven't been blogging lately and really I have no excuss. Jack and I have been going to school and he has been working extra hard. I have done a little baking. I made blueberry muffins and brownies. I also tried to make a cake look like a rubberband ball to give to Jack's work but it didn't turn out right so I enjoyed stabbing it with a knife and then we just ate it. We all ate dinner together for three meals last week and that was amazing. Jack and I have also been working out at least three days a week. Were so happy in our relationship. We are always learning more about each other, and am so blessed to be together.

Sunflower Update!

2008-04-02T16:32:00.000-07:00

Just a quick look at how big my sunflowers have grown. I would like to thank my mom for watering them while I was in Texas with out her we would not be here, either of us. Yeah!
sorry there a little blurry!

Danny's Birthday

2008-04-02T12:58:00.000-07:00

Today is my cousin Danny's Birthday and some how my aunt decided to make him a cake and I actually made him a cake. I guess it's just because Im so talented. Plus I really enjoy cake decorating. This is my first time making this cake and I think it turned out pretty good. I hope he likes it. He is nineteen to day. Yeah!

We Know Why God Loves Texas!!! (Part One)

2008-03-31T17:29:00.000-07:00

I will start off with saying that I had the best vacation ever. Texas is amazing and the Rowles family are the coolest. I'm so glad that I got a chance to really get to know them. Of course I took a lot of pictures and I will post as many as I can and talk about them.

We left for Texas super early and arrived around noon to begin our ten-day stay with Alyssa and her family. I will just say that their house was always exciting and I loved it.

Jack really loved being with Carson. He needs more men in his life. If you can't tell this is a picture of Jack wearing a power ranger mask and Carson wearing a power ranger suit so who's the bad guy, your guess is as good as mine.

On the second day Alyssa took me to a Tastfully Simple event. I of course enjoyed myself and it gave me time to get to know Alyssa better. She is an amazing women. hopfully what I have learned from this event will help me to do my own party for her.
One of the resturants that we went to was called Mighty Fine Burgers and the of course were mighty fine. The burgers and fries were awesome but the best part for me was the hand washing machine. You stick your hands in this metal box and soap and water starts to spin around your hands it is so exciting. After you wash your hands you get a sticker that says "I HAVE CLEAN HANDS"

While in Texas we went on a double date to this pizza place called Pizza with a Jersey Attitude. It was so cool. They only had one size which made it easy. Not to the resturants fault two things happened there that I could have done with out. First I bit into a green olive and realized after my teeth were trobbing that they have pits, and sencond I tried anchoivies and let me tell you that they are absolutly disgusting. It tasted like I was eating a raw, salty fish. At least I won't ever have to try them again.

After dinner we went to the Domaine (probably spelled it wrong) It was fun to look at the shops and just spend some quite time with Alyssa and Chet. I really liked the decorations around the windows of a purse shop we passed but I spent so much time looking at them that I didn't catch the name of the store. This vacation I tried really hard not to buy to many things for myself so it was able for Jack to get the things that he wanted. During this particular outing Jack purcashed an MP3 player and he really enjoys it.

Chet and Alyssa also bought Chet and Carson matching t-shirts. They both looked adoreable.

After the shopping we went to this amazing dessert place called Viva Chocolato! They have so much chocolate and they also had gelato, which is what we all had.

I will end this blog here because I have been on blogger for an Hour and Half and my foot is alseep. Im not sure how many parts there will be but please stay tune. I will try not to drag it on too long.

A First

2008-03-18T17:39:00.000-07:00

Jack and I made our first strawberry pie together today. It was a wonderful time and I got some pretty good pictures of Jack in his Superman Apron. He is so adorable. I tried to make the pie yesturday but I could get the pie crust to stick together, it was all crumbly. So today I got a store bought one that I just rolled out and we cooked and the strawberry sauce stuff. It was fun and Jack always adds his humor which is great. I love when Jack cooks with me. Thats all I have to say here are the pictures.

No Underdogs for me!!!

2008-03-16T18:30:00.000-07:00

Jack and I found our fourth letterbox today! All the letterboxes seem to be in parks which gives us a chance to walk around nature and look at things. Well this time the letter box hunting lead us by swings. I love the swings I always have. I was swinging having fun when Jack tells me he going to give me an underdog. I said no it did not sound fun to me. Since Jack thought I would love it he did it any ways. I still didn't know what an underdog was and I was scared so as he is pushing me up I kind of sort of freaked out and I noticed that my butt wasn't on the seat so logically I just let go with my hands too. Then I proceded to land flat on butt with sand in all the wonderful places. I hurt my fingers so bad and I was embarrased. When I got home I forgot to take a picture of my battle wound so I drew it with paint shop. This is how bad my finger hurts..

OUR SUNFLOWER

2008-03-14T15:18:00.000-07:00

So one of the gifts I recieved for my Birthday was sunflowers. On my Birthday Jack and I planted them right away (so they would have the same birthday as me of course). Jack took great care in picking out the seeds that looked the healthiest. Then we agreed that the growth process should take place outside because we have this cat who likes to eat flowers. She is a real scary cat. So the directions said that it could take about two weeks for growth but On the exact one week date our three oldest flowers sprouted and now Jack and I are the proud parents of Nine sprouts. thats right all the seeds we planted have started to grow. We will get back to you guys about the names. Just kidding. Although I can really tell that Jack is proud of his seed picking talent because he loves, watering and looking at the Sunflowers.

Letter Boxing

2008-03-06T17:53:00.000-08:00

Today was a wonderful day! I don't have any pictures but I'll tell you about it anyways. Jack had today off so he course slept in. It was cool with me since I had reading to do for school. The book Im reading is Plain Song and it is not really interesting yet. So I read for a while then deciced to go to the gym. I had a good work out except for the part where my radio wouldn't tune to the television that I wanted to watch but I watched I love Lucy instead. Then I went over to Michael's the craft store and bought a stamp, ink and a little note pad to go letter boxing. We were not successful in finding a letter box today but I intend on going again tomorrow to look for another one. Even thought the letter box was not found Jack and I still had a wonderful walk in the Nature Center and it is also fun to just spend time with Jack. We also went to Mimi's Cafe for lunch and meet up with my friend who works there. Today was just an all around good day. Hope you all had a good day too.

A Day At Knott's !!

2008-03-03T20:02:00.000-08:00

Thursday was a great day! We all went to Knott's Berry Farm and had a blast. We rode both the newest rides The Silver Bullet and Perilous Plung, which were both amazing. Jack and I ate great pizza and I got fitted for a coffin, yes that was creepy. We also rode this little train underground minning thing where I couldn't understand any of the jokes the driver was trying to tell. I got my face painted with little butterflies and glitter which of course I wiped on Jack.The Charlie Brown Hoedown was a funny experience which I understand was for the kids. Supereme scream was still fun, because you feel weightless for a second. The whole day was fun, just spending time with Janna, Dave and Ethan was fabulous. The weather was good and Ethan went hunting for gold. I of course could not end this blog without showing everybody how Jack choose to stick his butt out on the lower water fountain claiming the higher one was broken. It's still cute. Im so glad that Jack deicied to go with us it was just an all around wonderfulday. Plus in the morning I bought a new waffle maker and made waffles. When I opened the new waffle maker from its box there was a card inside. The card said to Amy as a shower gift. I found that to be quite funny.

Well I have finally learned how to put a picture on my blog. Look how big it is!! I guess I'm still learning and will work on it more soon. Jack and I have been really busy lately. I finally found a full time job. It's doing customer service. It's easy and helps the time to go by fast. I have made a couple friends but haven't found the time to hang out with them. Jack is still working hard at Office Max and enjoys his time there. We are also both going to school. We have also just completed our first week of going to the gym. I wouldn't say that I enjoy it so much as I love the way I feel after I've completed the work out. Im still teaching sunday school and work to add my enthusiam to the class.
