I LOVE NY

A long long time ago, when I was around the age of 16 I took a trip with my Aunt, Uncle, & Cousin & I decided I loved NY! Ever since that trip to the east coast I have wanted to return... but not only to visit but to maybe/possibly/eventually live there for up to 2 years. I am realizing I am now 23, engaged, enrolled in school, & have a great job. Hmm..

About 2 years ago I was browsing on my friends page looking at her pictures as well as her friends pictures & came across this picture that captured me.. (& at the time I had blonde hair)

So here I am today trying to put together wedding thoughts & ideas. I think I have come up with the best idea of all! Since I cannot move to NY (at the moment), get married in NY, how about have engagement photos done in NY! As some of you may know I am moving back home to save money for apparently... my crazy ideas ;) but more importantly a place to live & our honeymoon. This will just have to make its way into my budget. I am planning on visiting NY either end of April 09 or end of August 09 when Derek has his semester breaks. Hopefully I can get my parents on board to join us. It will be a visit, vacation, & one item down on our never-ending to do list!

After selling this idea to my fiancee, he decided to drop some news as well. When talking with his career placement counselor he thought Derek would be a great addition to the east coast country clubs & courses. Unknowing of my plans, Derek considered it. Isn't the first 2 years of marraige an adventure in itself? Why not through a move into the mix? Can't wait to see what the future holds, all I know is im planning a fabulous visit & banking on some incredible pictures in Central Park, NY.
