Rock Garden: Christmas is over...
http://ashleyjoyjansen.blogspot.com/2014/02/christmas-is-over.html
Monday, February 10, 2014. Christmas is over. I finally took down my decorations, as I mentioned earlier, but I thought I'd post one picture of what our house looked like. I know my SIL would be interested. I was going to post an "after" photo, but it's too embarrassing. If anyone has some interior decorating talent then you're more than welcome to come my way and teach me a thing or two. I really like this picture :). Im assuming its Erik sitting there, but its hard to tell ;). Also On the Needles.

Rock Garden: April 2014
http://ashleyjoyjansen.blogspot.com/2014_04_01_archive.html
Thursday, April 17, 2014. Yesterday I received a call at 04:55 informing me that my friend, Kelsey, was in labour. I was being summoned (welcomed, really) to support her and her husband as they brought their child into the world. Birth is miraculous. It is amazing - like ama.z.i.n.g! And I feel so blessed to be invited into this intimate and inspiring time in people's lives. I cannot think of anything so beautiful, so raw, so powerful, and so sacred. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Also On the Needles.

Rock Garden: girls night.
http://ashleyjoyjansen.blogspot.com/2014/02/girls-night.html
Tuesday, February 11, 2014. Erik was in Vancouver for school a couple weeks ago. I am not the biggest fan of being home alone so I invited Maelle and Elinor for a sleepover. It was only Elinor's second time sleeping over and she did wonderfully. Like I've said before, my house is magical when it comes to making babies sleep. I missed my girls - I have been so busy that I haven't had much time to spend with them. Maelle Mai is getting so big! My little baby is so grown up! Have a good day! Meandering Rib ...

Rock Garden: Tucker Ray
http://ashleyjoyjansen.blogspot.com/2014/03/tucker-ray.html
Wednesday, March 26, 2014. It is with a full and happy heart that I announce the birth of Sawyer and Kaden's little brother, Tucker Ray. He was born on March 25th at 23:26 weighing 8lb 8oz. Mom and babe are both doing well and. Kev even survived the delivery without my moral support. I don't even know where to begin. Even though I wasn't there to welcome you earthside, I still love you so deeply. You are one lucky little guy to join the family you have. Welcome to the world, young man. Also On the Needles.

Rock Garden: July 2013
http://ashleyjoyjansen.blogspot.com/2013_07_01_archive.html
Sunday, July 28, 2013. We spent 16 hours visiting my brother, sister-in-law, and the newest member of their (and our) family. It was a last minute decision, but the 3.5 hour drive was well worth it. I am a crier. I always have been and I suspect I always will be. I am most easily reduced to tears when I am feeling particularly happy, love-full, and/or proud. It came as no surprise that I met my nephew with salty discharge impairing my vision. So very very sweet. Friday, July 26, 2013. The trip was too sh...

Rock Garden: my story
http://ashleyjoyjansen.blogspot.com/2014/03/my-story.html
Saturday, March 08, 2014. You will have to forgive me - words are not my forte. I cannot promise you eloquent articulation. I cannot promise fully formed thoughts or concise speech. All I have in me is. me. Messy as it is. Cloaked in uncertainty. Covered in grief. Broken. Persistent, painful, heartbreaking, humbling. hope. You see, Erik and I have been trying to conceive for eleven months. We found out we were pregnant at the end of December. We miscarried in January. I don't want pity. When we know of o...

Rock Garden: S H E I S Clothing
http://ashleyjoyjansen.blogspot.com/2014/02/s-h-e-i-s-clothing.html
Sunday, February 09, 2014. S H E I S Clothing. My friend, Kim, is amazing. She never ceases to surprise and inspire me with her dedication to her faith and her talent. She recently started a clothing line ( S H E I S Clothing. And her reasons for doing so are below. It has been a long time dream of mine to use my creative "ways" for His glory. I suppose I've always feared failing, but recognize we have a real enemy who I wont let thrive in my silence any longer. She is P U R P O S E F U L. Hand/Wrist War...

Rock Garden: December 2013
http://ashleyjoyjansen.blogspot.com/2013_12_01_archive.html
Monday, December 30, 2013. Stuart Park Skating Rink. I have yet to skate at Stuart Park. I don't own skates, but that is no longer a valid excuse as this year they added skate rentals on the premises. Erik, however, regularly heads on out and skates for an hour or two. He did this more often when we lived within walking distance of the park, but he still manages to get out there. Friday, December 27, 2013. Wishing you a wonderful weekend! Thursday, December 26, 2013. Right now, I am. My mother's birthday...

Rock Garden: June 2013
http://ashleyjoyjansen.blogspot.com/2013_06_01_archive.html
Friday, June 07, 2013. Erik and I have come to our final 24 hours together. How did that happen? We have just arrived back in Bangkok and we fly out tomorrow - him 5 hours after me. What do you do at the end of a trip? We are planning on eating, showering, walking, and just enjoying each other's company one last time. After this we won't see each other until July 19. That seems like an incredibly long time as we have spent every single moment together for almost six months. After Kuala Lumpur we went to ...

Rock Garden: November 2013
http://ashleyjoyjansen.blogspot.com/2013_11_01_archive.html
Thursday, November 28, 2013. Just a wee little post. Erik, my beloved, handed in the last paper of the first quarter of his Masters on Monday night. I cannot even begin to tell you how proud I am of him. He has worked so. Hard every single day since the quarter started in September. Every single day. We went to the Hunger Games on Tuesday night to celebrate (and sat a row apart because the theatre was full). Wednesday, November 27, 2013. A list. It is all I can muster at present. We have also made a vari...
