Heard about this through a fellow July 2009 bride (Go say hi to Kate), and I loved the idea! So here goes!
I'm Vicki, and I'm 27 years old. I married my dear husband On July 10, 2009. As you can see, he hates buttoning jackets. We are currently trying to have a baby. I am a state licensed massage therapist, and a manager for a retail store (SUUUUCKS!), but the economy definitely isn't helping that situation. I do side work as a wedding and event photographer. I'm relatively new to the world of blogging, but I'm having a great time learning and exploring, as well as reading other blogs and getting inspirations for everything. I LOVE photography, and generally wind up posting a lot of pictures in my posts. Since wedding planning disappeared from my world, I've begun crafting to fill the void it left. I love to be creative, and I love planning things.
We have 2 cats, Glitter (7) and Hendrix (11), who I have had since before I even met my hubbs.
Glitter above, Hendrix below
We also have one dog. His name is Riley, and we adopted him from animal control in Chicago on 4-22-09. His adoptaversary is coming up! We have loved every moment of having him. Most people think I'm a bit insane for the amount of photos of him I have.
Riley loves playing in the hose when it's hot outside!
In case this post didn't give it away or anything, I have a tendency to ramble...and jump from topic to topic. Keeps my little world interesting!
If there is anything you want to know, do not hesitate to ask, I'm hoping to make some new blogger friends! :)
Thanks for looking!
XOXO

I'm not sure if it's my computer or if there is supposed to be just one brown box for a background but that's what I see.

ReplyDeleteIt was great meeting all of you through the UBP! I look forward to further updates in your blogs :)
ReplyDeleteStopping by from UBP! I'm still trying to visit as many blogs as I can even though the party was officially over yesterday. Good luck trying to conceive. I hope you have an easy time of it. I am a (very) amateur photographer. I would love to learn more about using my camera's settings to make my pictures better but running after a 2 (almost 3) year old cuts down on time for that!
