So awhile ago, in August to be exact I shot Heather and Nathans wedding! I also had an engagement session with them( sorry for not getting around to blogging that)! I have known them since before they started dating! They met through Nathan's sister Rachel! Who happens just to be best friends with Heather! The way that Nathan proposed was so cute! he took her( in a limo) out for her birthday to the John Hancock for lunch, then took her to navy pier and went on the Farris wheel(he hates Farris wheels), when they Got to the top he asked her to marry him! she thought it was a joke at first, but through all the excitement she said yes! then when she got home all her family and friends were out on the lawn to congratulate her! This couple is so blessed! :)

About a two and a half months ago it was my birthday!! I turned 18, it was a bit disappointing on my birthday seeing it was four days before Christmas, and normally people tend to forget it! But what did make me happy was that my friend Sarah came in from Nashville that day, and we went to a Thai restaurant!! which was fun!! And we had a bunch of people there! They sang happy birthday, a friend of mine, got the whole restaurant to sing Happy Birthday to me( thanks Jake!) as I blew out the candle on table that is there normally for decor!! It was fun! But sometimes on my birthday I don't feel like it my birthday, simply because no one is normally Thinking about it, they are thinking about Christmas, and new years and such!!! But Just about a month and a half ago!! I was going to celebrate my birthday with my cousins!! The Tschetters!! They were calling it a Vickie Palooza day( which I think should become a national holiday,hehe)!! So we went to one of my fave pizza places Gino's east! And there most of my friends were waiting there for me! To celebrate my birthday!!! Yes, my best cousin Becca, and my mom, planned a surprise party for me!!!!YAY!! I felt so loved and appreciated!! I even started to hyperventilate! but it was all good! so what we did for my 18Th birthday, was ate of coarse, and one of my favorite things!! A PHOTO SHOOT!!!! All around downtown Wheaton!! Here is some pics enjoy!!! some pics are not the greatest! Sorry!

One Good Man..............................

2008-09-09T23:10:00.003-05:00

This world Lost a very honest and generous Man! This Man is my grandfather! He died Yesterday morning in his sleep. He has always been a great influence in my life. He always pushed me to do better, and to be a successful in everything I do! He enjoyed life to the fullest, he went on cruses, he went to Europe, he had three beautiful children, and nine grand children! He had many friends, and he was a very blessed man! All my life all I wanted to do was make him proud, I hope I did in the 17 years I knew him. This Is for a man whom I will never forget! And never stop loving.
