So! The gift bags for the Federated Media cocktail party in New York were kind of jaw dropping thanks to a couple of good friends. Maile from Epiphanie Bags, the woman who did our family photoshoot, offered to give us a bunch of her camera bags:

Then our friends downstairs at Photojojo said they could get us some Fuji Instax Minis and film:

Are these gift bags ludicrous? Yes they are. Do you want one?
Leave a comment telling us something on your life list by Monday, August 30 at noon PST. Your comment enters you for a chance to win the Lola Epiphanie camerabag and Photojojo’s Fuji Instax Mini 25 Instant Camera. I hope you win, because I like you very much. Thanks for reading.
Now for the fine print: Please only leave one comment, because it’s the nice thing to do, and also because multiple entries will be disqualified. I’ll use random.org to select the winner, and I’ll announce who won at the top of this post and in a separate post on Monday.
sorry – in my rush to submit a comment I didn’t read your instructions properly. One item from my life list? Ride in a Hot Air Balloon!

One thing on my life list is to honeymoon in Lake Como Italy.
Why Lake Como you ask… Well here is the story behind why:
4 years ago, I had the amazing opportunity to go to Milano and Lake Como with my sister for a week. A few weeks before that trip I met my now fiance. While I was away in Italy, we missed each other so much that we were text messaging each other back an forth constantly. Its strange how being apart really made us realize that we had something really amazing. It was while standing on the shore of Lake Como I understood that I was truly in love. I want to take my fiance to that exact place, where I stood and thought of him and make new amazing memories there together.
