The Wedding Your mom finally gets married -- tell us about the wedding!
The wedding was absolutely phenomenal! Every detail was thought out perfectly! I mean there really isn't much to say -- you who saw it know that it was breathtaking!

Your speech was beautiful -- how did you finally figure out what to say? (Any advice for other maids of honor?)
This being my first experience as maid of honor I had no idea what to say! I had never given a speech outside of school or an event ... nothing ever personal or heartfelt! At first I "planned" on having my speech done a month early so I could practice it and make sure it was exactly what I wanted to say! But I was a little busy and didn't end up writing it until two nights prior! Yes -- I am the all-time procrastinator, but I work best in a stressful situation! I...]]>

Ashley on ... Lauri's Bridal Shower Did you come up with the lingerie theme? Were you embarrassed seeing the gifts?
Well, my ideal party would have been a full blown bachelorette party ... lingerie, strippers, the whole shebang! But since I invited some of George and my mom's mutual friends I figured I would keep it appropriate and make it a nice little luncheon with some lingerie to spice it up a little! That's the only thing people could bring as presents! It was a lot of fun. I was a little embarrassed seeing my mom hold a few gifts, but it made me laugh more than anything else. The lingerie was fine, but some of the women got a little kinky, which was fine, but I was shocked because all in all my stripper idea would have worked out just fine!

How did it all come together?

It was beautiful! I reserved a lunch room at the St.Regis....]]>

Ashley on ... Roughing It and Her Style rhoc_308_03_320x240.jpg

We kind of get a feel for how you and the other kids feel about the RV in the episode, but can you elaborate on the trip?

Camping is OK, and nature is beautiful, but my idea of roughing it is a hotel that doesn't have room service or a day spa. Now I know what you all are thinking (what a priss, spoiled, lives in a bubble, etc). I am sorry! I just love long hot showers, pretty hair, and unclogged pores. I don't like to hunt or fish. I hate dirt, mosquitoes, and all other bugs. I see no purpose in sleeping on the ground or freezing your butt off in a tent. I hate bees and other things that sting. Birds scare me, so I have no enjoyment of bird-watching. I think building a tent is something boys should do. Use matches to make a fire for Christ's sake -- what...]]> http://www.bravotv.com/blog/realkidsofoc/2007/12/ashley_on_roughing_it_and_her_style.php http://www.bravotv.com/blog/realkidsofoc/2007/12/ashley_on_roughing_it_and_her_style.php Thu, 27 Dec 2007 11:37:41 -0500 Ashley on ... Everything! What did you think when trying on the teenie bikinis? Did people give you a hard time about not wearing it when you guys went to Huntington Beach?

Ha! Well at first I was excited! I thought, "Oh yay! Me, Linds, and Christen get to go pick out new bikinis just in time for summer! Then to my surprise, we get there and our bosses are there! They are awesome and I love them, but I did not feel comfortable trying on bathing suits in front of them! I know how a bathing suit looks on me when I'm looking at myself in a mirror -- why do I need to come out and show it off?! Its one thing being at the beach or a pool, but well you know what I mean! I don't even go bathing suit shopping with my dad! So, I finally get into the dressing room and start trying some suits on...]]> http://www.bravotv.com/blog/realkidsofoc/2007/12/ashley_on_everything.php http://www.bravotv.com/blog/realkidsofoc/2007/12/ashley_on_everything.php Tue, 18 Dec 2007 12:27:43 -0500 Ashley Speaks! kids_ashley_320x240.jpg

So, while your mother is trying to sell the townhouse, what are your thoughts on that?

Well, last season, when my mom was talking about selling it, I was kind of apprehensive about it, just because… where was I going to live? What am I going to do? Now, it doesn’t bother me as much because I’m off on my own more. It’s easier to get a new place by myself. I’m working a lot and getting my real estate license… just trying to get everything together.

__MTPAGINATE_PAGE_BREAK__

Are you looking for a new place?

I am, actually.

Did you get your real estate license?

As of October 1st, a new law passed, so I have to take a few more open book tests before the main test, but I’m sure I’ll have it in January.

Do you spend a lot of time at the house?...]]> http://www.bravotv.com/blog/realkidsofoc/2007/12/ashley_1.php http://www.bravotv.com/blog/realkidsofoc/2007/12/ashley_1.php Tue, 11 Dec 2007 17:12:29 -0500 Kara and the New Boyfriend kids_kara_320x240.jpg
You saw it here first. That's my new man...

I think I'll be safe this season from all the "haters" because I believe I only appeared minimally... But my take on the show is pretty simple: it's hilarious this year! I love to watch the people I care about on TV and I like getting caught up on everybody's lives. Colton is pumped from football season, our high school had a pretty successful run this year and he's got a lot of that Keough pride.

Shane got a new puppy, named Bella. He's practicing responsibility and I've seen such major changes in his attitude and character: he is honestly growing up! It's nice to have Shane away from home because it makes it a pleasure to have him back, when he does come. My mom and I are getting close this year and I think when I go to college, she's going...]]> http://www.bravotv.com/blog/realkidsofoc/2007/11/kara_and_the_new_boyfriend.php http://www.bravotv.com/blog/realkidsofoc/2007/11/kara_and_the_new_boyfriend.php Wed, 14 Nov 2007 09:35:50 -0500 How Well Do They Know Us?

Spring Break: Megan Knickerbocker megan_spring_01_320x240.jpg
We tracked down Megan to get her spring break plans. It confirmed our suspicions that the more responsible one is, the less fun spring break becomes. Still, she answered our questions about spring break in the past.

Bravotv.com: What are your plans for spring break?
Working. That’s about it. My dog is going to be pregnant in the next month, so I'm going to stay home with her -- she's going to have puppies.

Bravotv.com: What have you done in the past?
You know, really just Cancun, usually.

Bravotv.com: What were they like, back in the day?
I tend to party. (Megan laughs)

__MTPAGINATE_PAGE_BREAK__

Bravotv.com: So this is not a typical spring break for you?
I got to be responsible and work and pay my bills.

Bravotv.com: What was a typical day on spring break like for you, way back when?

Bravotv.com: What are you up to for spring break?
I’m going on vacation with my family in Cabo.

Bravotv.com: Where are most of your friends going?
Most of my friends are out of school now, so they don’t have a specific spring break. For vacation -- I know a lot of them wanted to go to Miami for the music conference.

Bravotv.com: How do you view spring break?
It used to be about letting loose and partying, but now it's more of a relaxing vacation.

Bravotv.com: When you used to go out with your friends, what was your craziest spring break story?
You know, I never really celebrated spring break. I was very involved in sports during school, but I did go to Mexico a...]]> http://www.bravotv.com/blog/realkidsofoc/2007/04/spring_break_ashley.php http://www.bravotv.com/blog/realkidsofoc/2007/04/spring_break_ashley.php Sun, 08 Apr 2007 21:17:13 -0500 Spring Break: Michael and Briana wolfsmith_spring_01_320x240.jpg
We caught up with Vicki Gunvalson's offspring, Michael and Briana, to find out their spring break plans. Here's what they had to say:

Bravotv.com: Where are you going for Spring Break?
We are going to our house in Havasu for spring break -- my birthday’s on Easter.

Bravotv.com: Are you going with family or frends?
My family, and then one of my friends, and my boyfriend Coby, and then one of his friends. I usually go to Havasu every year, but my friends usually go to Palm Springs or Vegas or if their family is anywhere else, like Chicago or anything like that.

How do you view spring break?
Because I’m in nursing school and it's so hard -- spring break is a time for me to relax even though I still have classes that week. I'm taking classes at two different schools so it's not really...
