About Me

My photo
We are two young folks loving life! We both love laughing and just taking one day at a time, We sometimes laugh because since we are both the babies of our family we look to one another to take care of each other...We both love sports and outdoors. Dan is 23 and I'm 21 but we both feel like we are so much older...I don't know why, but we either feel older or way too young! Dan in one word...Hilarious Ashley in one word...I'll have Dan fill this one out.

Kate Michelle Wolfgramm!!!!!

7 lbs 2 oz and 19 inches long!!!! born July 10 2009.
Grandpa Warner and Kate, He loves her so so much!!!
Daddy Simeon and his little girl! She totally has him wrapped around his finger!
Grandma Warner and Kate, She never wants to miss out on anything that happens to kate, so she would be responsible for all the pictures and video of the baby! Too bad she wasn't this motivated when michelle and I were babies.
Uncle Dan and Aunt Ashley! I love babies but the love I have for this little girl, there are no words to describe it.
She LOVES her mom! every time Michelle talks Kate looks around to find her.
Before the Birth, sim was such a good support to Michelle . Waiting all day, he was watching golf while waiting but still waiting! Sim is such a good Husband, brother and will be an Amazing Dad!
weighing in!
This is Kate's room! My mom and I helped Michelle clean it the night before!!! Michelle was planning on another week before the arrival.


I have to say that babies are such a blessing! Michelle allowed me and my mom in the room at the birth of Kate!! I cannot tell you the feeling that I got when Kate finally got here, her spirit filled the room and I had no other option but to smile and cry as I watched a family form and two people that I love so much become a father and Mother. Kate will be such a strength to all of us and I cannot wait to be a part of her life!

Vacations!!!!

Since I just got on the blogging train....I thought I would look back on the last vacations I've been on since Dan and I were married.

Hawaii, thats were we went on our honeymoon and it was joined with a Derrick family reunion!!! Just with 32 people in one beach house two weeks we got married! It sounds kind of scary right?! It was the greatest and I loved having time to get to know Dan better and his family!! good thing I loved his family before we even got married!




At the dole plantation!! his favorite pinapple...he was mad I made him find one so I could take his picture with it. You can tell its a fake smile, but a very attractive fake smile!

Dan learning how to surf! it was so fun to watch him, he was really good too. He is just too cute.
These were the best snow cones ever! If you know me I LOVE LOVE snow cones/ Hawaiian Ice and these were amazing! they are famous for having beans at the bottom. (north shore)Dan and I had such a fun time, if we don't count when I got the flu and was throwing up in that bathroom and almost passed out on Waikiki.... We even got up-graded to a ocean view hotel room for free!

Dan loves his mom. I mean he LOVES his mom and she LOVES him. He was so excited to see his family at the airport the second week in Hawaii.


Brian, Ryan, Matt, Dan, Braden and Jamie all went surfing!!! (one of the best pictures of the trip!) Dan looks so dark...Jealous.
Dan is going to be such a good dad!!! look at him and how much he loves it! I'm thinking about making one for him that carries me on the back!
I didn't want to buy the picture...so I took a picture of it instead! At the PCC...
Grammy at Pearl Harbor with some grandkids! Seth, Abby, Kate, and Em. Isn't Dan's mother Beautiful?!!!!
Last Day...So hard to leave Hawaii.



If you haven't already been able to tell that I love pictures, then I'm sorry but I love pictures I'm a visual kind of person and thats how I remeber things, so if you hate pictures you will probably hate my blog!

MEXICO and DISNEYLAND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

On a boat ride to go to a private resort!!!
Me trying to kiss a praying Dan while he is standing on his area where he served his mission.
Kayaking...yes it got frustrating when Dan would not follow my instructions. I can't find any of the Disneyland pictures but I'll post them when I find them!!!

We went to Disneyland first and it was so fun to go when I had someone that I could ride with (Dan) so I would never have to be the awkward one that was the single rider!!! Thats how it was when my sister got married. It was fun to go on rides and run across the park to beat lines like I was twelve again! As much as I love Disneyland I think I'll wait till I have kids for the next trip!

Mexico was so fun we went on carnival cruise lines and it was so fun to dress up, have our room cleaned and all our food made for us anytime of the day. Dan liked it a lot, it was his first cruise and I will tell you he took advantage of all the perks!!! If you know my husband then you know how much he eats and how messy he is. So if the rules change on cruise ships it might stem from Dan and his habits! Mexico was fun, but we did come back with a few upsets...My mom was sick for weeks and not one doctor knew what was wrong with her, I was sea sick as always! and my dad ate a pepper that was WAY too hott for his poor mouth. Dan reminded him that peppers in Mexico are a little different than in the states!

I love traveling and I can't wait for another trip!!!!!

Update: this will be a long one!


This will be an update...not of our whole lives, but of the last year plus some high school stories...

This is a picture of west high Sr. Ball May 2005...our last dance together! We match perfectly right..? I get kind of OCD on matching colors. Dan and I loved going to dances together and could put many pictures up here of all of the matching outfits I insisted Dan wear.

I do have to tell you about the first dance when I was FINALLY 16 Dan asked me to West High Homecoming Dance. I was freaking out when Dan knocked on the door and I was half ready, so Dan took a seat in the living room across from my dad...Bad Idea. Haha I came out of the bathroom and saw my dad just looking at Dan, not talking just looking. I felt so bad...When you hear those stories about crazy dads who try to scare guys out of asking their daughters out, you heard about my dad! We went to Macaroni Grill and I was in a group of all older kids and felt so embarrassed for some reason, I get really shy when I'm uncomfortable and really quiet, so the whole time at dinner I wasn't saying much. Then just when I think I'll survive the dinner I hear someone tap their glass and say "I have an announcement..." (look to the right of me...Dan started standing up..) My jaw dropped and my palms were sweating...no joke it was kind of gross. then he continued with his so called announcement, "I just want to say how beautiful my date looks tonight!!!" as he sat back down he whispered in my ear, "I was going to say you were the most beautiful girl but then I felt bad for the other girls at the table." I fell in love with the boy at that moment, at the time I thought I hated him!

We went through the best and worst o
f times together, When Dan got back from his mission we got to go to Lake Powell on my family trip which was so fun. He made everyone laugh from day one. He even found some glasses on the beach buried in the sand and wore them the rest of the trip! Something I didn't miss was him throwing me in the freezing cold water, even with all of my threats. It was the first time that Dan and Simeon went to Lake Powell which was so fun but at the same time terrible because I was always the victim because there is no way Sim will mess with Michelle and Dan thinks it hilarious to make me mad. The family trips always consist of sleeping in and eating lots of food and gaining a beautiful tan, which I miss terribly right now and am only weeks away from returning back!!

After I returned from Powell Dan proposed and totally tricked me. I had no clue it was happening. I was going to work with my sister and she told me that there was a independent film that was so good playing and today was only 1$ to see it. I knew I needed to make money so I told her no and she finally offered Hires and I was sold, but not happy about it. We drove from west valley to downtown SL and walked up to tower theaters on 900 S the movie was love songs. We go sit down in a dark theater and no one else is in there, I was totally freaked out! Michelle tells me she needed to go to the bathroom and leaves me...the previews begin and I hear the door open... turning around expecting Michelle I can see its a man, too dark to see who but start to panic thinking its some kind of pervert going to the movies to pick up chicks! Then as he get closer I see its Dan and start crying, he has flowers and popcorn. He sits next to me and a slide show of us comes on, it ends and he gets down on one knee and tells me I make him better and how much he loves me! He put the ring on my finger and I said yes!!! Biggest and best surprise EVER!

We had a great summer and I was lucky enough to go to Vegas for one last girls trip! I went with my mom, sister and Best friend Emalee!! It was such a fun trip where we relaxed more than we could imagine. Swimming and shopping, eating and sleeping and we got to see a Beatles show! it was so fun we had a whole week of girls a few weeks before My big day.













We also got to go to the bees game with Dan's family and it was so fun!! Dan's family is really big so when it comes summer time we get to see some family that we haven't for months. It was funny to watch the twins eating who knows what off the cement ground below our feet! haha they have so much energy.

One of my best friends Nicole got married one week before Dan and I so we got the chance to got to their temple marriage and it was so special to see a marriage for eternity, it really helped me to see it before I went through the same thing. I don't know how to describe the feeling I get when I even see a couple come out of the temple doors as husband and wife, but it is such a pure and hopeful feeling that I haven't found many other places. Two people in love is so easy to see, and Nicole and Josh are so in love and I have never seen that girl smile so much, want to be better and Josh loves her so much it makes me smile every time I think of those two together.

Wasting my time...I still have no idea what I'm doing...

So, I started a blog...Thanks to Bre she talked me into it!!! I will figure it out one day but I better wait until school is done, because I might never finish if I spend all my time on this!

Since I'm one this I might as well give an update on Dan and I. Especially our trying to buy a house deal...We are so close and will be closed hopefully by the end of this month! I can't even imagine a house, a house payment or trying to fix up a house with no money!!! The last one will be lots of fun and I think I'll write a book if I'm successful on the no money spent aspect.

We are both so excited to build a stronger relationship with one another this summer by buying a house and relying in each other to make it our home! But we will need lots of help so volunteers welcome!!!

Well I'll get back to homework (15 essays I put off till now!!) and by the end of the month hopefully I'll get better at this blog thing.
