Ashlyn Reilly
Hey everyone! Say hi to Ashlyn Reilly!
1. Where are you from?
I was born in Provo but raised in Beaverton, Oregon until I was 9, then moved to Alpine, Utah till I was 16, then moved to Carlsbad, California until 18. I moved back to Utah for college and have been here ever since. My husband says “your from the state that you graduated in”, but I think you are from where you spent the most time living, so for me it would be Alpine, Utah!
I come from a “yours, mine and ours” kind of family. I have 2 older step sisters, 2 older step brothers, one blood brother, one blood sister, one younger half brother (step mom+dad) and then my youngest half brother (mom+step dad) REALLY confusing... I know. But I have never introduced my siblings as half, whole or step. We’re all just the same :)
3. What is your favorite movie?
I am going to have to say Titanic. I have probably watched it a million times. And I have had a crush on Leo Dicaprio since I could talk.
I am obsessed with Disney. I love love love Disneyland and really anything that is associated with it. And... I love to color in coloring books. There is something that is just therapeutic about it. So yeah, if you want to make me happy get me some crayons, a coloring book, and some Disney movies and I am set! haha. But I am definitely a little kid at heart.
I wish I could! My parents always tried to get me to take piano lessons but I was too impatient for it. If vocal chords are considered an instrument then I would say singing. I may not be the best, but I am ALWAYS singing a tune. (It gets pretty annoying if you're around me a lot, I’m that girl that gets a song stuck in your head all day)
5. How long have you been married?
Drew and I have been married since November 2. Going on 7 months now!
No kids...yet. We want to wait till we are both graduated, which is in 2 years. But we absolutely LOVE kids and have almost 20 nieces and nephews between the both of us, so whenever we’re baby hungry we babysit and that takes the baby appetite right away!
I would say my favorite part about living in Provo is the memories Drew and I made here. We met each other while living at The Village, and now have a house around the corner. So driving through the city, is just a sweet reminder of where it all started :)
8. Do/did you go to school? What degree(s) do you have?
I am currently going to UVU and getting a business marketing degree and Drew is at BYU in the business program doing business management and entrepreneurship. We will both be done in two years.
I love eating. So my girlfriends and I really enjoy finding new places to eat and explore. haha
Speaking of eating! Lol. I love pickles. I could literally eat pickles all day, every day. But if I had to pick a genre of food, it would have to be Indian. Drew took me to an Indian restaurant on our first date and thats when I knew he was the one. ;)
11. What are you most and least looking forward to about football season?
Well lets see. I got married during the football season last year, so enough said. Lol. I am definitely looking forward to relaxing and watching the games. I am also really excited about the new schedule, I feel bad for my husband though that he’s has to get up at 5:30 am but I am glad they won't have their crazy workout schedules in the middle of the day!
I was at Seaworld and I had to really go to the bathroom so I rushed in, hurried did my thing and came out. I was probably walking around the park for a good 20 minutes before this chick came up to me and told me my skirt was tucked into my underwear!
Honestly, I would love to live anywhere that is sunny all the time and a constant 75 degrees. I love being warm and absolutely hate being cold. It’s a curse for my husband because I cuddle with the space heater more than him. haha But the most important thing to me is family, and all my family and most of Drew’s family lives out here so it’s definitely worth it!
14. What is your favorite article of clothing?
I couldn't live without my nike sneakers. I used to literally sleep in heels but since I have been married, I’m all about comfort now! haha My Nike's are my best friend.
Drew and I met on the beach in California during the summer of 2012. My cousin and I were walking around the beach, when him and his friends came up to us and started talking. We found out that we both lived in Utah and ended up moving into the same apartment complex the next month. From that July to February, Drew couldn't get the nerve to ask me out. We literally ran into each other ALL the time. I never really thought much of it, but had always in the back of mind like asked myself, “why has he never asked me out?!” Finally last February he did and it’s all been history since then :)
If Drew and I could, we would be at a club every night listening to house music (or rap, I am a hood rat at heart ;) and dancing. Haha maybe not every night, but we love Vegas and music, so it goes hand in hand! We also love to travel. Once we are graduated and done with football we are going to spend a whole summer in Europe :)
16. What position does your husband play?
Safety
17. Do you love football? Did that love come before or after your met your husband?
The only times I watched football was during the super bowl, and that was obviously for the commercials and halftime show! And then during high school to socialize. Other then that, I never knew anything about it. Since being in college and being a football player’ wife, I really have grown a love for watching it!
