We have decided the time has come to go private. So please leave your e-mail with a comment or send me your information at ashleypearson10@hotmail.com. Thankyou!!!! We'll keep this open for the next few weeks. And if there are any of you that we don't have information for, please let me know so we can stay in touch. We've been really bad at keeping up with everyone lately. Thanks again!!

He Sleeps Everywhere

2009-07-12T18:45:00.000-07:00

Kohl sleeps everywhere and I love it. Whether it's sprawled out on the floor, curled up on the couch or snuggled in the boppy, he's lights out. These are a few of my favorite pictures of him.

The Start of Summer

2009-06-29T08:03:00.000-07:00

We've had a busy and exciting past few weeks. We just got back from a family reunion with Brion's family. We went camping and had such a great time. We rode bikes with the cousins, Madi enjoyed playing on the water slide, Brion went paintballing for 6 hours and came back a little sore and I enjoyed hanging out with Kohl for the better part of the trip. It was fun to be with family and we truly enjoyed our vacation together.

The picture below was great, where Brion got puked on by Kohl. I also got a few pictures of our little man who just turned two months. I know, I know he's two months already, where has the time gone.... Kohl is a great baby and I really am grateful for my two kids. They mean everything to us and we couldn't be more proud!

We also went out to Lucky Peak. It's right off of the dam and there is a miniature lake with a huge fountain right in the center for the kids to play. We had a great day out there in the sand and the water. Last, my sister came and stayed for almost two weeks with us. We had a fun time while she was here and Madi and Kohl had fun with their Aunt Paige.

New Glasses!!!

2009-06-16T18:19:00.000-07:00

Madi's new glasses arrived today, she looks sooo cute. I still can get over how old they make her look. She's not my baby any more.

More Kohl Pictures

2009-06-13T13:30:00.000-07:00

I just wanted to post a few pictures we had taken over the last few weeks. A few of the pictures are from the blessing last weekend. Thanks again for all of you who were able to be there with us. We know it's not a fun drive, but it meant a lot! We Love ya!

Congrats Trav & Crystal!!

Family Pics

2009-05-10T18:50:00.000-07:00

We decided to take a few family pictures today for mothers day. As you can see some of the pictures turned out better then others, but we had fun doing it!

Welcoming Kohl Russell Pearson

2009-04-22T16:12:00.001-07:00

We are very happy to announce the arrival of the newest member of the Pearson family, Kohl. Kohl was born April 20th ath 9:00am. He weighted 7.13lb and and was 19.5 In long. The Doc. induced Ash at about 7:00am and in less then two hours Ash was holding her new baby boy. Everything went better then we could have hoped for, Ash and the baby are doing great. We struggled with choosing a name, we had 3 names we really liked but when we saw him none of them really seemed to fit. We love the name Kohl, but every once in a while a "Bennett" will slip from one of our mouths. We appreciate all of the gifts, cards, and prayers which our family has recieved. We also would really like to thank our parents for the great help they have been. Thanks!!

Ash and I were very excited and a bit affraid of how Madi would react to her new baby brother. I don't think she was too excited at first to be shairing the attention, but she has been great. She is her moms little helper, and still gets more then enough time in the spot light.

Oops!! We did it again!

2009-04-14T15:41:00.000-07:00

Madi forcing out a smile for the camera Easter morning. Like always, we were rushed making it to church on time.

I took this picture and laugh because Madi threw a nice little tantrum at church and broke her glasses again...and here she is staring at her gifts left by the Easter bunny who somehow (madi claims) broke into our house! Brion and I both think she didn't see her basket for about 3 minutes without the missing glasses!

AHHHH! Finally she made the 3 feet walk to see what she was missing.

Once again using those peepers to search for the hidden easter eggs left in the yard. We also made a little trip to the hospital last Tuesday. I started having contractions for a few hours and Brion and I panicked that we weren't going to make it into town in time and headed out. We got to the hospital and walked for a good 1 1/2 hrs and decided to have them check and see what was going on. I was dialated to a 4, yet here I sit blogging to you all and no baby pictures and am still at a measly 4! Ibegged the doctor to enduce me yesterday and he set me up for an induction Monday morning at 6:00am!

So yes once again we headed to the hospital a little early and now everyone is in anxious mode for our little one to arrive. The only good thing about this is my mom flew in last week in hopes of a little one and so we've been walking and shopping, doing hair, playing games, walking, cleaning and a little more walking.

Madisons First Talk & Visitors

2009-03-15T19:17:00.000-07:00

Well here is our baby all grown up and giving talks in sacrament meeting. Brion and I were asked to speak in church and were preparing our lessons when Madi asked if she could go up there with us big kids. We were a little hesitant at first because we've taken her up there to bear her testimony before and she just froze. But we prepared a little talk and she nailed it. Brion whispered her the words and she did everything so perfectly. No fear whatsoever. I wish our parents could have been there. Here is a picture for memories sake anyways and the lovely pose. I couldn't get her to smile for the life of me.

We also got to see Verl, Julia and Parker this weekend. They were in town and we were able to go to lunch with them and visit for a little while. It was good to catch up and see what was going on in their lives. Madi just adored baby Parker and would not leave him alone. The big sister in her is starting to set in.

Green River Trip

2009-03-04T19:33:00.000-08:00

Very unexpectantly we made a quick trip down to Green River for the weekend. My Dad got put in as Bishop of their ward and we were able to be apart of it all. It was so nice to see the fam as well as my Grandma and Uncle, Derek, Michelle and Kylee Jo, and Brion's parents, Travis and Crystal and our nephew Landon. The drive was about 7 1\2 hours and we had great roads, but I think that will be the last time we go down until after the baby is born. (I was a little cranky to say the least.) It was so fun to see everyone and even though we were there about 24 hours it was well worth the trip.

This is actually a terrible picture. My only goal was to get a few family pictures with everyone, but as hectic as things were, I barely got one of the three of us. Poor Madi is squished between Brion and the big fat pregnant lady. And needless to say we look pretty cheesy!

Family Home Evening

2009-02-26T11:27:00.000-08:00

For FHE this week we talked about prayer and painted prayer rocks to put beside our beds. Madi was so excited to paint and has carried all three of our rocks around this entire week.

Yep, I'm sure you can guess which rock belongs to who. Brion has the ladybug, I have the BYU rock and Madi painted hers every color we had. Madison has even taken the ladybug to bed a few times with her.

We're Alive!!!

2009-02-21T17:29:00.000-08:00

"Our House"

We are here! We've actually been here a little over a month and we've been meaning to blog, but things have been a little hectic. We're all unpacked and for the most part settled in, we've met the ward and a few of our neighbors. We really love our house and are starting to feel right at home. Brion loves his job, he fits in great wearing hoodies and hats to work everyday. I found a doctor that I really like in Boise, it's a little further than we planned on traveling, but I think it will be great. Madi has had quite the hard time adjusting, being in a new place, with new faces and away from friends and family, but she's slowly starting to come around. We are doing wonderful and miss each and everyone of you. We are always open to visitors and have plenty of room!

We actually had Brion's parents and brother down last weekend and this weekend, Jason and Candi and their two boys came up for a wedding reception and stayed with us. This is Madi and Braden at McDonalds. Can't go wrong there!

Then we headed off to the zoo which is open year round up here. It was a beautiful sunny day and as you can see we had tons of fun. We are starting to forget that it's still winter.

With ears this big you would think she would listen a lot better than she does!

The camel isn't the only one sporting a lovely hump.

Madi peeping out of the prairiedog hole. What a goober!

It's Official...

2008-12-15T13:41:00.001-08:00

We're moving!!! Brion got a job in Idaho near the Oregon border, about an 1 1/2 hours outside the Boise area. We are absolutely thrilled and feel very blessed by this opportunity, especially in our economy right now. He'll work as their Environmental Safety Specialist. They have amazing benefits, they reimburse tuition (which gives us the opportunity to go back and get our Masters if we choose to do so), and we are hoping to get into a house instead of an apartment!!!! Along with our excitment, we also feel a very bittersweet feeling as we leave our "home" here in Rexburg. We've been here a little over 4 years and have had so many opportunities and experiences that have richly blessed our family and our individual lives as well. We will truly miss all of you and the wonderful times we have shared!

It's a Boy!!!!

2008-12-03T10:39:00.000-08:00

We are excited to announce that we are having a baby boy!!! I am now five months along and feeling great. We had our ultrasound yesterday where we found out the exciting news. The doctor said that everything with the baby looks wonderful, he is growing and developing perfectly. Madison is also very excited to be a big sister, I think that she will be able to fill the role perfectly seeing how she is already so stubborn and bossy, (I think she gets that from her mom). Anyways, we have been thinking of boy names although Madi insists that she is going to name the baby Owen after her little buddy from her primary class...we'll see. My due date is April 25, so we will keep you up to date on any news. Thank you for all of your love and support!!

One of the birthday parties

2008-10-10T20:45:00.000-07:00

Thanks to everyone who attended Madi's party. We had such a fun afternoon at great ol' McDonalds and were able to celebrate Madi's third birthday with primary friends and neighbors.

Our Little Gymnist

2008-10-10T20:33:00.000-07:00

The Poser

The first part of the amazing summersault...

And the landing!! Ta DA!!

For Madi's birthday, Brion and I decided we would get Madi signed up for gymnastics. We had our first free trial run Thursday evening. I highly recommend this to every parent with a two year old or older. This is definitely a way to get the wiggles out especially with winter just around the corner. They take your children for an hour and stretch, jump, walk the balance beam, hula hoop, jump in the sponge pit, sing and dance. It was great. Brion and I both went to show our support for our little gymnist and we both had our noses pressed up against the window for an house observing her every move. Madi came home very proud of her new sport and slept like a rock!!! That to me is worth every penny. I was the first one in line to give the lady our money for the next few months!!!

Princess Party at the Pearsons

2008-09-19T12:26:00.000-07:00

Lily, Alyssa and Madi all dressed up for an afternoon of royalty.
Nothing like a makeover to get the party started.
Time for a treat.
Whats a princess party without a little twirling and dancing! Even we princesses get tired sometimes!!

2008-09-11T16:28:00.000-07:00

This past weekend, Madi and I went down to Green River for a few days to see the fam and catch up with Candace and Brian for the blesing of their baby, Jhett. Here are some of the fun pictures we took of the fam. This was Madi, Jen and Spencer. Spencer just broke his leg during his first football game of the season. He's a trooper though, he still goes and suppports his brother and their team. I thought this was funny, here Madi is, she's like the size of Spencer's cast on his leg!!
Madi and Jen hanging with the girls. Madi has a friend named Gracie she plays with when we go to Wyoming . It's a fun time for her.
My brother, Derek and his new haircut!! Enough said!! We still love him though!
We got to catch one of Tanners football games while we were in town. I've never seen him play before and he's really good, plus Madi just adores this kid and was cheering for him off the sidelines. Couldn't ask for a better lookin' cheerleader!
Candace, Jhett, Madi and I. I'm so glad we were able to be there for Jhett's blessing. I talked Canace into skipping Sunday School so we could catch up. I miss that girl. Wish we got to see each other more often than we do. She's such a great friend and it was fun to see her as a mom!!! As for Brion, he was stuck home farming (I know he's always farming). We sure missed him, but it was sure good to see family and friends.

Random Pictures

2008-08-15T11:09:00.000-07:00

Yes, We are alive and all is well! We are still in Idaho. Brion's had a handful of interviews and we are still trying to figure things out. We have been here and there and just got back from Green River. We thought it would be a good time to visit the family and check up on things in Wyoming. These pictures are of Madi's darling new haircut (which makes life so much easier for the both of us) and the day we took Landon, Drake and Madi to the zoo and amusement park. What a blast to have the cousins hangout together, but also a very tiring day for everyone. Brion and I included!!!

2008-06-30T19:16:00.000-07:00

Well for all of you who have been waiting for a new update, here we go. And sorry no pictures, I know it's rather boring without, but my camera is broken. But we had quite the week last week, so all of you who called or needed a babysitter or just wanted to play, we ended up going out of town unexpectantly for a job interview in Washington. We hurried and packed up and my parents came and saved the day and got Madi and Brion and I took off on the 10 hour drive out to the Tri-Cities area. NO news yet!!! but we really enjoyed ourselves and had a great time. Honestly it was very relaxing and nice to get out of town for a while away from reality and all responsibility. As far as the interview goes, Bri did really good and either way something will work out and go as planned. Washington was a different story, it just wasn't quite what we expected. We came home very appreciative and loving Idaho more than ever!!!!

2008-06-16T18:53:00.000-07:00

There is probably nothing as relaxing as a day of fishing. I guess unless you are two years old. I think that Madi had more fun playing in the dirt and chasing bugs then she did fishing. Although, she did assist in catching 2 fish. She would let us do the fishing until we had something on the line then she wanted to reel it in from there. Once we had the fish out of the water we tried to get Madi to touch them. She touched one and then it started to wiggle so she screamed, she is so girly. You may also notice that Brion caught the bigger of the two fish... not that it matters.

2008-06-02T11:50:00.000-07:00

2008-06-02T11:34:00.000-07:00

Madi's first bowling experience with Max and Braden. We took the kids bowling Saturday night and it was a hoot. They were all pretty good too. It was fun to get together and catch up with everyone. Thanks for the memorable night guys!

2008-05-27T22:20:00.000-07:00

Memorial day became a little more significant to our family after the loss of James. It has been almost 6 months since his passing, and we were grateful for the opportunity to honor him and others who have passed on. We all miss James very much, and will always be grateful for the good times we had together. We love ya James!!

2008-05-27T22:00:00.000-07:00

We had the opportunity to go up to Wolverine Canyon with Brion's parents and little Drake on Memorial Day. We went 4-wheelin and did a little hiking. We made our way up to 40 Horse Cave and enjoyed the beautiful view and camped out a while until the rained stopped. We had a bonfire and a weenie roast and were completely soaked in mud by the end of the day. It was nice to have a little family time and get away from reality for a few hours. Brion finally talked me into going "camping" up there soon!! Any takers...

2008-05-18T19:54:00.000-07:00

I think we have a smarty pants on our hands. Madi has been in this puzzle phase lately. I bought one a few months ago for church to keep her reverent and she really enjoyed it. So I bought her another one. She loves them. She wants to play with them everyday. Just a little recommendation for you moms out there. They are a 4-in-1 puzzle that comes in a wooden box with a lid. You can actually put the puzzles together on the lid when you don't have a hard surface area. 5 Star *****

2008-05-18T19:41:00.000-07:00

Finally a few nice days . We have been soaking up the sun with days at the park, walks in the morning, spending afternoons with Dad at the farm and making the most out of this gorgeous weather. We're not sure how long it will last, we better take advantage of it.

Which vest is best?

2008-05-08T17:09:00.000-07:00

I know that the resemblance is kind of eerie…But Ash got this new vest the other day so I couldn’t help but make the comparison. I guess I’ll start referring to her as Mclovin. Anyways, I just thought I would check to see who is more stylish, Ash or Fogal? Whose vest is best? We would love to hear all of your comments.

2008-05-07T17:10:00.000-07:00

Sorry I forgot to turn my pictures and I'm too lazy to do it again. This past weekend Madi and I went down to Logan for the blessing of Baby Allie, Mar and Doug's little girl. We had a wonderful time and enjoyed seeing everyone, Thanks for letting us come guys. The first picture is Madi playing Doug's drums. He was great to let her test them out and even let Doug know that she had a pink guitar to be apart of his band too! The second one is Madi and her new friend Grant. They had a ball together getting into trouble. Then the happy couple and there little one. Isn't she cute?!! Then Mar's darling family who have been so wonderful to me and Mar, Allie, and I. It was so nice to see her and that she's doing so well and enjoying being a mom. I love ya and thanks for the fun weekend. Can't wait to do it again!!!

Finally a nice day!! We have been waiting for a warm day to get out of the house. Finally this weekend one came. We took advantage of the day and spent some fun family time outdoors at Yellowstone Bear World. It was way fun we saw the little cubs, and even got the chance to feed some of the big black bears. Overall it was a great day.

2008-04-21T12:25:00.000-07:00

My two favorite people in the whole wide world, what more could a girl ask for.

2008-04-21T12:23:00.000-07:00

We spent the weekend in Wyoming for the blessing of Derek's baby, Kylee and were able to spend some time with my family and my grandparents. We had a great time and enjoyed getting out of town for a few days before Brion starts up school again. Yuck!

2008-04-21T12:21:00.000-07:00

I love my sisters. It was so much fun to hang out with them this wekend. They are so stinkin cute. We got to celebrate Andrea's B-day as well. Happy Birthday Paige, we love ya!!

2008-04-21T12:19:00.000-07:00

Madi was so excited to hold Kylee, obviously enough

2008-04-21T12:16:00.000-07:00

Dad, Kylee, Tanner and Mad.

The Bash Brothers. Two very awesome uncles that Madi could not live without!

2008-04-21T12:10:00.000-07:00

My darling grandparents were able to come for the weekend. It was fun to spend the afternoon with Grams shopping and catching up.

2008-04-21T12:07:00.000-07:00

Michelle, Baby Kylee Jo and Derek. Doesn't she look just precious in her blessing dress.

2008-04-13T09:59:00.000-07:00

Thanks Mom, and Dad for coming up to Rexburg for graduation. I love you and appreciate all that you have done for us. Thanks for all of your support. Sorry guys, my camera's battery ran dead so I didn't get all of the pictures that I wanted. My mom took some on her camera so I will have to post them when they send them to me.

2008-04-13T09:57:00.000-07:00

Finally Graduation!!!!

2008-04-13T09:54:00.000-07:00

President Clark. He recently came from Harvard to reign over BYU-I. That is Elder Ballard to the left, sorry my camera man kind of cut him out, but I was still exciting to meet him.

2008-04-13T09:47:00.000-07:00

Elder Ballard spoke at graduation and even gave out diplomas. It was a wonderful experience that I'll never forget.

2008-04-13T09:45:00.000-07:00

Curler magic

2008-04-13T09:43:00.000-07:00

What a babe!

2008-04-13T09:41:00.000-07:00

Leslie gave me the idea of curlers in the hair. Much easier for those of you with little girls having to to do hair every morning.

2008-04-13T09:39:00.000-07:00

I got my hair cut the other day and when I got home Madi was so mad she couldn't go and get hers done that we ended up taking her back to get it cut. What a girl!

2008-03-24T11:19:00.000-07:00

This was the only picture that turned out well of Madi in her Easter dress. Sorry it's not even a full view. It was kind of a hectic morning. We got up and rushed through Easter Bunny stuff and Brion got called out to work all day and came home deathly ill. We are sad it came and went so fast, we just weren't ready this year.

2008-03-24T11:13:00.000-07:00

Saturday we had lunch and celebrated Candi's upcoming addition to their family. It was nice to see Cassie and Amanda who were visiting from out of town. Brion took Madi and I had a carefree afternoon all to myself with these girls. Thanks for the fun day.

Brion insisted we put this picture in because of his North Carolina egg, the rest Madi and I just scribbled on. GO Tarheels!!

2008-03-11T18:48:00.000-07:00

Monday for FHE we had Jake and Jaime, Derrick and Catherine over for dinner, a lesson, and then we dyed Easter eggs. Madi has been waiting patiently for so long to do this. We made a good mess, but had a great evening.

2008-03-11T18:40:00.000-07:00

Madi's cute new dress I got at Kohl's for $10. I love clearance!!

2008-03-11T18:34:00.000-07:00

Just us girls! I love this picture, I still cannot believe that Madi is 2 1/2.

2008-03-11T18:32:00.000-07:00

Chase, Gracie, Madi and Lilly making fruit kabobs at the Smiths house.

2008-03-11T18:27:00.000-07:00

Lilly and Madi in their chef hats. Lilly's birthday was a blast. We played pin the hat on the chef, made fruit kabobs, decorated cupcakes and opened presents. It was fun to ge together with friends from church.

2008-03-11T18:24:00.000-07:00

Madi and I made brownies for our visiting teaching sisters. I think we all know why Madi likes to help...

2008-03-11T18:21:00.000-07:00

Madi calls this her "Cheetah Coat"

2008-02-29T12:18:00.000-08:00

We caught these two right before nap time. Avery came over to play while Melodie went in for a doctor's appt. BFF

2008-02-29T12:15:00.000-08:00

What a good looking couple. :)

2008-02-29T12:11:00.000-08:00

Our new Sunday morning tradition is to have an hour long game of hide'n-go-seek. As you can imagine its very difficult to find places in our little apartment. Madi has an unfair advantage, Brion and I always wind up in the same places week after week. The fun part is finding new places to stick her!! Here she is in the entertainment center.

2008-02-29T12:08:00.000-08:00

Rock ON!!!!! Madi and Brion officially have a new band, I am a groupie. Madi got this guitar, a Dora the Explorer ABC learning game and a new outfit for Valentines Day.

2008-02-29T12:05:00.000-08:00

We were trying to practice Madi's hair for family pictures without bangs.
I love this picture, she has this cheesy grin on her face.

2008-02-29T12:02:00.000-08:00

Madi and I were headed off to Mish's baby shower. This was Madis cute new outfit. She looks so grown up I can't even believe it.

2008-02-29T11:56:00.000-08:00

Madi and Bri headed to the Jazz game. We made a quick stop to see the lights at Temple Square.

This was one of the first days in a long time that Brion and I spent the day together doing something we both enjoy. We couldn't have asked for a more perfect day. I want him to know that I love him more and more every day. He is my best friend and I couldn't have gotten any luckier. You complete me!

Brion taught me how to carve, so by the end of the day I wasn't doing to bad. I could actually go down half the mountain and not eat it. Oh yeah!

This is a hideous close-up. I'm sorry to all those who have to see it. I don't know why Brion put this in. He puts the pictures in and I write about them. Sorry guys!

Madi belly-flopping

I know it's hard to believe but I spent most of the day in this position...on my butt

Brion and I actually had the opportunity to go snowboarding on Saturday. It was so much fun. Every muscle in my body aches, Brion won't admit it but I know he's sore too. We owe our lives to wonderful Aunt Michelle for watching Madi while we went. Thank you, we love ya!

Taking a breather

2007-12-23T18:12:00.000-08:00

The last week Brion was in school Madi and I got to enjoy the snow for a few days. We dressed up in our snow equipment and headed outdoors. What a blast we had. Madi kept belly flopping in the snow. I had quite the time trying to show her how to make snow-angels though. We couldn't seem to get the arm-leg coordination down. What a great day!

Madi was posing for the camera. She looks so grown up in this picture. I can't believe she's already two. My baby is growing up so fast.

Grandma and Grandpa Pearson came up for Madi's primary program. She did an awesome job and looked pretty dang cute!

After being released from the bishopric we had the opportunity to have dinner with Bishop Smith and the other members of the former 74th ward bishopric. It was a great opportunity for us and we are thankful for the wonderful blessing it was to serve, we will always remember the good times we had.

Well here is a quick update: Brion has left me in charge of the blogging, so all of you who truly know me, know that we are in big trouble. So I will do my best to bring you the most recent news from the Pearson household, but I make no promises! He has passed down his blogging knowledge but that isn't very much so therefore I am still trying to figure out how to flip my vertical pictures, so help me out here peoples. And we apologize for not keeping in contact with most of you during September and October. These were crazy months for us. Madi had her eyes operated on at Primary Childrens Hospital and is finally back home and doing so well. Thank you for your prayers and heartfelt concerns for her over the past few weeks. We are glad to be back home and into the swing of things again as the holidays quickly approach. We love you all and hope to hear from you soon!

Love the Pearsons!!!

Aren't they Cute!

Finally the Halloween pictures you've all been waiting for. Madi was a witch, a good one of course. She loved the holiday and we had a good time trick-or-treating.

On our way out to lunch with the girls!

This was late September when we went down for Madi's pre-opt before her surgery in October. We met 1/2 of my family and ate at "The Garden" above temple square. Jenna is trying to keep Madi out of the fountain!

Madi decided to follow in the footsteps of her father and become a "golfer." We had so much fun one afternoon watching Madi chase the ball all over the course.
