This past month my husband has been studying for his profesh (professional) HR exam. (Professional Human Resources Exam) He spent every night and weekend at his desk studying while I have been cheering him on. We really stayed locked up in this house for a month. He finally took the test on Friday and I got the message while I was at work that he passed. I was so relieved, excited and proud of him! I finally can have my husband back and get back to normal life around here. I'm very blessed to be married to an ambitious man. Congratulations hunnie on passing your exam! His co-workers were so sweet to celebrate by decorating his desk with balloons. I asked how he wanted to celebrate this weekend, but he wanted to just chill and eat burger. So that's what we did. The other day Souwan made me a turkey burger with aioli , and it was amazing! If you need a healthier burger choice, go for turkey. You will not regret it! So moist and delish. This week I got a t...

Happy one month anniversary to me and my hubby! I promise not to countdown every month, but It's just astonishing that we've been married for a month now. My first full month as a Mrs. was a breeze. Well other than jumping hoops to get my new last name on everything (govt docs, bank docs, work etc)! I wish there was a button to change everything at once. The titles have been surreal, "husband and wife". We're loving it but it still surprises us sometimes haha. Having a new signature has been a challenge, but I'm definitely memorizing it. The UPS guy has been a help for me. I practice signing my new name lol. We're going on our honeymoon soon! We decided for a later honeymoon. I'm glad, because I would've slept our entire week there. I'm excited to go on vacation to Disney World. We'll be spending the week at the many different parks: Epcot, Animal Kingdom, and Magic Kingdom. We'll be staying at a Victorian villa nearby Dis...

  photos by: Amy & Evelyna   I wanted to share a quick post. We said "I do" on Saturday June 8th, after 8 years we are now husband and wife! I wasn't able to take any photos with my phone the day of, but our family and friends shared photos of our day. Thank you all for sharing those. Here is a glimpse of our special day, more photos will be posted later. The best memories of our day was: It rained the whole week of our wedding week, we thought it would be raining on our day. It rained the morning of, but was sunny when our traditional Laos ceremony began. It's good luck when it rains on your day. I'm glad the sun came out and Hurricane Andrea gaves us a break from the rain. The Laos ceremony was beautiful. The older women helped me get dressed in traditional wedding dress.  My uncle led the wedding, we got laughter, cheers, and tears from him and the guests. Our photographer (Aunt Nyvanhn) did an amazing job! She not only too...
