Happy birthday, Ashley Thomas
Let’s pause from our lazy Sunday to offer the happiest of birthday wishes to Ashley Thomas, a design intern at The Albuquerque Journal. Ashley turns 22 today.

Ashley Thomas is one of the best people that I have ever been privledged to meet. She is smart, beautiful, and has an extremely good sense of humour! Wherever she goes she will get the job done. She is such a talent. Her tap-dancing, sword-swallowing (at the same time)cat isn’t so bad either!
