Commenting Challenge: Day 5 - Last Day!!


Today's Topic:

Tell us about your dream vacation!

Where would you go? Have you been there before? Who would go with you? What about it draws you in?

This is the easiest question for me to answer!!  I have always wanted to go to Italy.  I can't remember how old I was but I remember thinking how cool it was that you had to travel by Gondola in some places.  That's what really drew me in.  I just thought it was so romantic.  And then as I got older, I realized that there was so much history in Italy.  So many beautiful buildings to see.  So many amazing cities to visit. 

I mean, just look at all of the amazing things you can see!!!!

Florence

Venice

Verona

Naples

Milan

Rome

This would be my dream vacation.  Of course I hate to fly so the 8-10 hour flight would really suck but they serve alcohol on the planes right?  HA!  I also always feel so out of my element whenever we go somewhere far away.  When my huband and I were younger, we did an all inclusive trip to Mexico.  While we both agree it was our best vacation ever, I felt SO out of place.  I felt the same way when we went to St. Thomas on our honeymoon last year.  We had a GREAT time but I felt so strange being away from home.   

Realistically, I would just love to go anywhere right now.  We could really use some kind of vacation, even if it's just a 2 hour trip to the beach for the weekend.  That's one of the great things about living in Metro Philadelphia....you can get to the beach pretty quickly.  I think the time of us going to Italy is over for now.  I want to go places with my kids and I want us to experience new things as a family.      

What's your dream vacation?

I had a great time participating in this commenting challenge and I found some really great blogs to follow!  I am thankful for all of the people who commented on my pages and who are now following me.  I look forward to getting to know you all better!

    I would TOTALLY go to Italy too...but the language barrier scares me. I would hate to be lost or need something and not be able to communicate.

      Hmmm...good point. Don't forget to pack the English/Italian dictionary!

Blog Commenting Challenge!

Linking up with Jenna's Journey  for the 3rd Annual Blog Commenting Challenge! Hi! I'm Vanessa! I live with my husband Bryan and my amazing 6 month old Ashlyn in Pennsylvania. I was born and raised here and love it very much! We have 2 pugs, Katie and Utley, one black lab, Camo and one cat, Joey. Our second cat, Kitty, is sadly recently deceased (on Father's Day). I work full time as a Marketing Analyst for a supply chain consulting firm. I don't even know what that means really! I have been here for 3 years and am thinking about a career change. SAHM is looking better and better. My husband owns his own landscaping business which has been both wonderful and horrible at the same time! My husband and I know each other for about 17 years now and we have been together for 12. We got married in September of 2010, just 2 weeks shy of our 10th anniversary! We got pregnant after only 2 months of trying and last December we were greeted by Ashlyn Marie Miller,

I'm Not Gonna Lie

Anyone who knows me know that I LOVE Christmas.  I love the decorations.  I love to decorate my own house and see all of the other cool decorations other people have.  There is a house down the street from us that always has more lights and decorations than I have ever seen in one yard.  It's a bit much but it's an attention grabber. I love the Christmas tree.  I love to get the tree out each year (yes we have a fake because I can't stand the needles) and I love to decorate it.  Growing up, our family would decorate the tree together with all kinds of ornaments that we had collected over the years.  I like to do themes for my trees.  Last year I did pink and silver in honor of the newest member of our family.  I'm really hoping to instill the tradition of decorating the tree with my kids. I love finding the perfect gifts for people and I love to watch their reactions when they open those gifts.  I generally wait until I have purchased ALL of my gifts, I sort them

Big News!

We have been trying very hard to keep this to ourselves for just a little while longer but I can't wait anymore!    Baby Miller #2...due 09/01/13!!!!!!!!! I am 8 weeks and 1 day I have known since Christmas Eve I am much more tired and much more nauseous this time around I haven't gained a single pound yet, unlike last time I am not so secretly hoping it's another girl If this one is anything like Baby Girl, he or she will be born mid-August I've been leaving hints all over the place but no one noticed! I am so excited!   I've already had one doctor's appointment but I was only 7 weeks so there wasn't much to do.  We couldn't hear the heartbeat or anything so the next appointment will be much more exciting!  My next appointment isn't until February 11th so that's when I'll get to hear and possibly see my next little monster!  So exciting!   PS:  Notice the blog title?!
