🎙 NEW EPISODE 🎙 Taylor was born and raised in a small town near Chattanooga, Tennessee where she developed a love for photography and traveling at a young age. She attended college at Jacksonville State University where she earned a Bachelor’s of Art with a concentration in Photography. During her time at Jacksonville State University, Taylor was selected for the Disney College Program where she would work as a PhotoPass Photographer at the Walt Disney World® Resort in Florida. During this time she met her eventual husband Casey, an active duty Marine serving in Jacksonville, North Carolina as an Aviation Ordnanceman. Taylor and Casey were married 18 months later and would continue on to be stationed in Beaufort South Carolina followed by Auburn Alabama where they would welcome their son Finley. As a family of four (which includes their Golden-doodle, Cash) they are currently enjoying their time “Where America’s Day Begins” on the beautiful island of Guam. On top of being a stay at home mom, Taylor works as a Magic Maker® with Off to Neverland Travel® planning unforgettable adventures for her clients, volunteering with the USO, and continuously expanding her photography portfolio. As a military spouse and mom, Taylor recognizes the importance of community and is honored to lead The Military Mom Collective. @militarymomcollective @taylorlwhitson @usmc #graceofamilitarychildandlife #militaryspouse #milso #milspo #militaryspouses #militaryfamily #military #marinecorps #marine #marines #marinecorpsspouse #marinespouse #usmc #mom #motherhood

💡 TIP TUESDAY 💡 No one wants to experience deployments, it is something that is hard on the entire family - but it is inevitable. By preparing paperwork and items in advance, it can be easier to cope with upcoming deployments. #graceofamilitarychildandlife #deployment #deployed #deploy #prepare #preparing #prepared

❓ DID YOU KNOW ❓ 21% of military spouses have seen a counselor in the last 6 months. It is okay to reach out for help when you need it. The military life is not easy, and we all need help at times. Reach out to those you trust when you need a helping hand, encouragement, love, a shoulder to cry on, or ANYTHING! 💜 #graceofamilitarychildandlife #militarylilfe #militaryspouse #militarylife #militarychild #milkid #milspo #milso #militarywife #therapy #counselor

🤩 FEATURE FRIDAY (but a day late 🤨🤣) 🤩 My name is Ashleigh Foltz, owner, founder, and operator of Custom Art by Ashes. As long as I can remember I wanted to fly airplanes. Flying military airplanes is a goal I worked towards my whole life and once I actually started Undergraduate Pilot Training at Laughlin AFB in the USAF back in June 2021, I started playing around with watercolor on the weekends as a way to alleviate stress from a long week of training. I was pleasantly surprised to find I actually possess some artistic ability. I started out painting the Texan T-6, the airplane I was flying at the time. I have since branched out to numerous other airplanes and non-aviation subjects. I sell Prints and Stickers of my artwork and as of October 7th, I've opened Pre-Orders for my first ever Holiday Cards! I am honored you have stopped your scroll to look at my artwork and for your support of my small business.
