Lisa and Lam

A few more days to go until Lam and I are off on our honeymoon adventure. I put together a rough itinerary for our 10 days abroad in Italy. Most days are jam packed with activities, but hopefully some days we will just wander around aimlessly and enjoy being lost together.

I am looking forward to: good food, wine, amazing works of art, nature and most importantly being in love and sharing this experience with the person I adore

Things I am not looking forward to: a 14 hour plane trip (look out ADD!), the hot and humid weather (thunderstorms are in the forecast), and the inevitable jet lag (that I am going to try so hard to avoid!)

Of course I am nervous about leaving North America for the first time, but mostly I am excited. This trip marks a new chapter in my life - a new adventure.

I am mostly prepared.

My co-people threw us a couple's shower. My mom said she never saw anyone have so much fun at their shower. It was a good time. The best part (besides the food) was when we played the toilet paper dress game. Lam and I picked the teams and made all the guys have to be the bride.

Pictures will follow soon. It was absolutely classic!

I know that the next 9 days are going to be whirlwind of planning, execution, laughter, crying, but most importantly happiness. I know that it is going to be here and then gone within what seems like seconds.

I want to cherish every moment. My plan is to remind myself to slow down and enjoy it (everything - including the ups and downs). Feel free to remind me if I forget.
