Honeymoon Highlights

Everyone's been asking about the honeymoon so I thought I'd post about it.

For those of you who dont already know we spent our honeymoon in Los Angeles. Not the typical honeymoon destination, I know, but what else would you expect from us? There we visited museums, architectual sites (bet you cant guess why), and beaches, saw sunsets, and brushed elbows with celebrities.

The highlight of our week had to be our stay at the Roosevelt Hotel. I must note that we would not have found the Roosevelt without the help of my myspace friend Tyler Shields. We were planning on splurging for one night in a nice hotel and thanks to Tyler ended up here. But the best part came after being let down, disappointed and then frustrated. Our first room was nice, as it should be, but the A/C wasnt working, then the shower didnt drain. Not what you'd expect from a luxury hotel. They moved us to a second room that was the same as the first but with working a/c. The best part came when our keys to our new room didnt work. Upon returning the keys we encountered a hotel manager named Saye. Saye treated us like stars. After all of our disappointment he came through and rectified our stay. Saye moved us to a poolside cabana room, worth nearly three times what our first room was worth, but it didnt end there. He asked us to meet him in the bar where he bought us drinks and then he went a step further and had strawberries and a bottle of champagne sent to our room. We were so impressed we ended up staying a second night.

Our honeymoon would have been perfect regardless but this made it over the top perfect. Dominic are luckier than we even know sometimes. I'd like to take a second to thank the powers that be for all our blessings.
Thank you.

Below are a few pictures from our stay at the Roosevelt.

Life moves on and it moves fast

There's so much going on these days I'm not sure where to begin. The wedding is over and I'm left with a sense of relief and of accomplishment but at the same time I'm sad it has come and gone.

I'm back in school full-time and I'm being reminded this week of how exhausting student life can be. I'm really enjoying filling my head with knowledge but none the less its tiring.

I have a new job (again). I'm still a nanny but with a new family that has significantly less issues. They're a really cool couple with twin boys. The boys are really well behaved and respectful, what a concept. I think we're going to have a lot of fun. Yesterday, we made cork launchers out of a beer bottle, baking soda and vinegar. We shot corks into the sky until we used up the whole gallon of vinegar. Gotta love kids, especially well behaved ones.

Saw a free screening of Last Kiss this week. It is an amazingly well done movie, too well done. Each scene evoked more emotion than the last and now I cant stop thinking about the characters and their heartache. As hard as it was to watch I would still recommend seeing it.

reminiscing

We couldn't have asked for a more beautiful wedding. Thank you all for coming, supporting us, and celebrating. We hope you all had as grand of a time as we did.
We'll put up more pictures in the gallery when we return.

Thank you Jenny and Megan for recording our memories.
