Last Friday night Lori and I got a chance to escort Ashley onto the football field at halftime for the Homecoming “Royal Court” while the commentator read her speech.
I guess I should have know what to expect, knowing Ashley. But here’s what was read while we escorted her in front of hundreds of parents:
“First and foremost, I would like to thank God. He is my everything and the only reason I’m good at anything. Special thanks to my parents. I am blessed by your support for me and the food we eat together is pretty fantastic. Shout out to my best friends Jenny and Makayla; my heart is with you both, always, the Foran Van, and Mimi’s cafe for making those delectable buttermilk spice muffins, for without which I wouldn’t be who I am today!”
It’s just so… Ashley!

Great fun speech and the picture of you guys together is awesome.
haha! love it!!! our kids humble us right? I wouldn’t have said this at that age!
I really love the part about spice muffins making her what she is today.
There are a lot of food items that have made me what I am today! lol. this month, it is candy corn. After thursday (halloween) night, there may be some mini snickers that contribute to what I am.
Wow! How great is that!? You go Ashley! Can’t put a price tag on moments like this. You must be so proud of her Jon!
Looks like you brought up Ashley to be her own person! Good for Ashley and good for you guys.
