Ashlee Simpson-Wentz And Pete Wentz Talk About 2008

Ashlee Simpson-Wentz and her hubby Pete have happy memories when it comes to 2008. When asked about getting married to the love of her life and becoming a mom, she said:

“It was the greatest year of my life.”

She and husband Pete were together sipping champagne and enjoying a special night out in Las Vegas, one of their first nights out since having their baby this past November. The newlyweds and new parents were celebrating New Year’s Eve at Pure Nightclub.

She told reporters:

“I don’t know if I can have high expectations for 2009 because 2008 was so good.”

They even brought the baby with them to Vegas. He was napping in the hotel with a babysitter. She went on to say:

“He’s the best thing that ever happened to me.”

Pete Wentz took to his blog to share his top 9 fav things of 2008:

my top 9 favorite things of 2008 looking forward to 2009:

1. Street artists being recognized as legitimate contemporary artists.

My personal current favorite is: kaws (throw shephard, banksy, reas, greg simpkins, romanelli and a bunch of others in there). these were guys i jocked in graf magazines and its cool to see them get recognition from the rest of the world.

2. “Sooner or later” – n.e.r.d.

its a jam. PH is a dude who makes music/art to make music/art and for no other reason. i back that.

3. The fall.

if I could recommend one movie this year this would be it. this took four years to film and 18 different locations. honestly one of my favorite films ever.

4. Watching john mayer doing van halen better than van halen in an amphitheater in southern california.

shirts optional, solos mandatory.

5. Getting married to the only person in the world who could put up with someone like me.

6. The curious case of benjamin button

its weird that i put this on both lists but the truth is you cant deny finchers eyes for film. also, i give it to brad pitt for picking interesting roles. the idea of this narrative is mind blowing and at times i fell for the story.

7. FBR_TRASH

and the like. because i love the haters. there is something in me that gets that. i like it if its witty, if its faster than me. if you burn me. i dish it alot, i deserve to take it some too. (which member do you think i am? i like you. you are the wild west).

8. the polaroid “zink”.

just after i began hording all of my polaroid film they come out with this thing. its sweet- you take the camera phone pic and instantly have the picture printed. only a matter of time before its on a phone or a digital camera (im looking at you japan).

9. bronx mowgli wentz

i have no words to describe how amazing he is.

its gonna be tough to top this all in 2009…

with music biz going down the tubes, i cant say i care because it was being run in a lousy way. strange to say because either its gonna come back from cardiac arrest with people like Lil Wayne proving everyone wrong or someone is gonna is gonna finally turn it into a zombie with a new idea. i feel it coming and want to be a part of it. i only appreciate this in the way that it is forcing people to get creative and think outside of the box- pop is getting weird again, i love it….

im gonna put up some of your top fives when i get my new computer (ahem, patrick…) apparently all the comments on the last post cause my computer to crash every time i view them.
