Social media has finally caught up to me and www.vamh.net....
Between Flickr, Facebook, Blogs everything was being duplicated and just felt too overwhelming. For now you can keep up with us on Facebook or my other blog! www.vamh.net could be resurrected at anytime but for now it's a glimpse into our history!
Love ya!
Also, a couple of accompanying videos. Click on the Photo Gallery link or the shortcut photo on the left panel!
My play-by-play commentary is priceless.
I will have Grand Canyon & Vegas uploaded by the end of the week!
Our 3rd Annual Honeymoon was as excellent as always -- we stuck to the US this year. I was adamant about going to California and Las Vegas but then slightly regretted my stubbornness each time we saw an amazing cruise deal for so cheap! I hate to hope for the crappy economy to continue but, wow, I hope we can take part in some of those fantastic deals out there next year!
Since the day I met Vinny we have talked about going to Vegas, literally one of our first conversations was about it. Six years later we finally did it, and more! We started in LA and Santa Monica, then headed to San Diego, then onto the Grand Canyon and finally to Vegas! Being from Minnesota I was craving some serious dry heat and sunshine, plus, I love Vegas so much! I don't gamble at all but I just love the feeling of sin in the air and sun on my shoulders, there isn't any place in the world like it.
Uploading pictures is taking quite a long time so I have decided to do one update at a time. I finally edited, sorted and uploaded the pictures from LA, Santa Monica, Hollywood, Venice Beach and Malibu....check them out and stay tuned for San Diego, Grand Canyon and Las Vegas in the next few days!
Check out how bad we needed a vacation! Day 1 & Day 10...amazing what some Vitamin D, sleep and fun can do huh?
Doing what moms do best!
We love you and miss all of you! Our thoughts are with you on this day and until we can see eachother again!
XOXO!
Vinny, Charlie and myself will be participating in our second annual Walk for the Animals on May 2nd. Last year was our first time doing anything like this and we are doing two this year! It is so much fun to get outside, walk, people AND animal watch -- and best of all, for a great cause.
I know that times are tough in this economy but we would greatly appreciate any pledges!

Things have been going well for Vinny and I -- we both still have jobs, that says something right? We are both very ready for our upcoming vacation to the west coast -- California, Vegas and the Grand Canyon! I am probably most excited about the fact that our rental car is a convertible :)
Vinny is taking the summer off as far as school -- I, on the other hand, am going to take three courses. One of them is a photography course so I hope to enjoy it and use that as my 'get-away' from the other two. I will then take three more classes in the Fall and finally be "finished"...Cmon January! Wait....no....I don't want January, its finally 60 degrees here!
I updated a couple albums -- my recent ladies weekend & Britney Spears concert trip to Dallas and some new pictures of our ever-evolving living room. I have the home decor bug again in the biggest way -- trying to focus that energy on a little exterior facelift -- new door, storm door, lights and house numbers! I'll share those pictures as soon as we are finished!
Oh and one last thing! This April is our sixth anniversary as a couple -- I'm not sure why but that date seems so much more important in my mind than our wedding day? Maybe that will change with time...anyways...here is a snapshot collage of us from each wonderful year we have been together!
I hope everyone is enjoying Spring as much as we are, keep in touch!
<3,
Allison
