"for us, we just did what we said we do~we kept our vows"

I hope you all had a lovely Valentine's Day!!!! I have been sick since Friday. FRIDAY!~! I have the flu and can't remember the last time I felt so bad. so miserable. so helpless. wahhhh. My super husband has been one amazing doctor. He's the best and although I tell you guys all the time, he really truly is the best Husband in the world. We put our Vday plans on hold since someone coughing up a lung and making sushi rolls sounds like anything but fun. I woke up to a g o r g e o u s bouquet of my favorite flowers, the sweetest card and my best friend making us heart shaped burgers and fries. He knows how to make me smile. :) I didn't feel good at all and he made it a great night even though I may or may not have passed out right after dinner. He is the very best and I love him for taking such good care of me. ♥




Have you seen The Vow? amazing right? well, I cried the whole way through. Brandon took me to see it over the weekend and my god...Can you believe it's based off a real couple?!?! Her husband made a vow and he is the sweetest man. his goal "Our one hope is simply that it will inspire our children, and other children, to do what they promise to do, to grow up and to be men and women of their word". precious!!!! Their love is truly inspiring and I am so thankful I have a love like that. I have not one single doubt that the love Brandon and I share is just as strong. OUR VOWS mean the world to us and our word will always be kept.

There are so many people today that you never fully get to know. They lie, cheat, hurt, pretend to be something they aren't. why? I'm not so sure. Stay true to yourself and happiness is all yours. :)

I hope you all have a great day! and don't forget to get your flu shot. ugh...

To my Husband,
I love you more than you will ever know or understand. I love you for loving me. I love dancing with you in our little home. I love vegging out on the couch with you and laughing at our favorite tv shows. I love you for taking care of me. I love your attention to detail. I love when you tell me to drive safe. I love that you ask me every morning if I slept ok. I love you more and more every day!
Love,

Mrs International love...

Here is my F L O R E N C E post. Florence Italy is a place where I will live. a place where I will work. a place where Husband and I will live for a few years before we "settle down". (((before kids))) I promise. (i hope)..

I went to Florence for work right after Hong Kong. Well I came home for 48 hours and got to see hubs and got to spend Tracy's bday with her and then....and then I got back on a plane. EEKKKKK!
When I arrived in Florence I fell.in.love. I have been there before when I was 18 but totally admit that I took it for granted. I was only worried about partying, drinking and sleeping. NOW all I want to do is walk around and learn everything about that beautiful city. I'm so in love. I have never wanted to move somewhere so so so bad. never. I mean sure..New York sounds nice for a year, Boston..cool, London--amaze but Florence...Florence is THE place. THE place I see me and Husband enjoying our newly wed life. Le sigh....

Here is my Florence picture diary. enjoy!
my heart broke when it was time to leave.... :(














Have you ever been to Florence?

and I do my little turn on the catwalk...

Hiiiiiiiiii!
ok, so shame.on.me. for being a t e r r i b l e blogger. But I'm over the lull. (how amazing is the word lull by the way?)
ok, ok..
So this weekend started off so CRAPPY and then got uber exciting. I went to work the CZ Falconer fashion show and ended up being IN the fashion show!!!!!!!!!!!! This was my first time doing anything like that. I was so nervous, excited and honored to be the impromptu model for CZ Falconer. Their new line is to die for and I seriously loved every piece. So gorgeous!
The crowd was amazing and I just couldn't help but laugh every time I walked the "run way". I had 3 looks and was on such a high. I want moreeeee!! :)
Here's some pics my lovely husband took. More to come!!

My brother and his friends had a table so after the show we danced and danced! B and I felt so old but that didn't stop us from getting a slice of pizza at 2am. oh yah!! pushing 30 and still rock stars! ;)







How lioness is my hair? raar!

on cloud 9.






Sunday was definitely a fun day! we had friends over and semi watched the super bowl, laughed at the half time show and played beer pong like champs. again...rock stars. ;)

Hope you all had a great weekend!!!
Did you watch the Super bowl?
Did you drool over Tom Brady the way I did?
Did you shop Jason Wu for Target?
Did you hate Madonna's half time show?

Hong Kong

CIAO lovers~~~~

How are you? Ive missed blogging so, so, SO much. I can't even explain how crazy busy beautifully insane my life has been lately. Work has taken over my life. Emotionally & physically. We let go of a bad seed at work and I couldn't be happier. Good riddance to the bad seed.

I went to Hong Kong for work for a week, came home for 2 days and then went to Italy & Switzerland for a week for work as well. insane in the membrane.

Here is my Hong Kong post although I can't wait to tell you about my dreamy time in Florence (aka the city I will live in some day...)

Hong Kong is intense. Our work days were full of early mornings, all day reviewing samples and fancy dinners. It's always an amazing opportunity to be able to travel for work and learn about the business but it can also be very exhausting. This city never sleeps. We were there a week before CNY so we got to see a ton of great decorations! Jet lag does not affect me until I am home and let me tell you, the 2 days I was home...I slept and slept and slept.. Poor Hubs.

and now for my HK picture diary ♥
















missed you.

How have you been? going to catch up on your bloggy blogs NOW!
