Going Away Party & a Lunar Eclipse

Hello,
Over the weekend we had to say goodbye to our friends Andy and Elyse. They are moving to Amsterdam for 2 years for new jobs. We had to send them out in proper style, so we partied the night away with them. Andy was one of the first people I met when I started at Nike. So he is near and dear to me.
Andy is the one in the white, Brian in blue and then Ken Chung in the back.

Half of Eric and all of Brian.

Eric and Andy. Not sure what this is all about...I guess it's how men say goodbye.

Ken, Cara, Eric and Brian.


Then last night (thursday) there was a lunar eclipse. Totally cool! Here are some pictures from outside of my house.

Well that's about it. Eric is still in school working hard. Graduation day is June 15th and I am counting down the days. Can't wait to celebrate all his hard work. Eric will be home this weekend so I'll be sure to take some pictures of the two of us. Hope all is well with you.
Love,
Ashlie and Eric

It's been a while...but here's an update

Hi Family and Friends, Sorry it's been so long since I updated our blog. A lot has happened so here is a quick recap. After our honeymoon we spent a great day at a Seahawks game with Jared and Monique (Eric's sister and brother-in-law). It was Jared's first time to a game, so needless to say we all had a great time watching him watch the game. :) Then it was Christmas. We spent time with my parents and Eric's family. Next was New Years which Eric and I spent at the beach at our friends new beach house. It was a great time on the Oregon Coast. This is the 3rd year we have spent New Years with this group of people and it is always a great time. Eric headed back to school a week later, back to the grind. We are getting ready for Eric to graduate. Well I am getting ready, Eric thinks about it a day at a time, but me I am ready to celebrate and have my husband back home. Just recently we went down to Southern California for a family event (a funeral). The good part was that we were able to spend some quality time with Eric's family. Which was really nice. Well here are a bunch of pictures from all the events. Oh yea, I am offically Mrs. Johnson. Let me tell you the name changing process was not fun...but hey at least I am official now. :) Hope you are doing well. We love you!
Oh yea...the pictures are a little out of order. :)

Ashlie Mouse.

Princess Naya. She wore this dress around, danced for people and everyone thought she was the cutest thing.

Ashlie and Eric at the Electrical Parade. This is right after we got off the tower of terro. So that's why we look a little white.
