Oooh! A productive weekend!!

Just when it was beginning to feel like we weren't getting ANYTHING accomplished--we planned a simple day out and about at the local stores registering. News Flash to Emily--Registering is not simple! Here are some of the comments you would have heard if you passed us in an aisle. "Do we get the toaster with 2 slots or 4 slots?" "But do you really need that many spatulas?!" "What do you do with a baster?" "What's the difference between a food processor and a blender?" "Ten place settings or twelve?" "Do these towels have to match?" "Brushed nickel, stainless steel or black?" "Why are these red wine glasses look like they are the size of my head?" "I have to go to the bathroom again."
I never thought I'd utter the words, "I'm all shopped out." But indeed, we walked out of the stores; tired, sore, delirious and all shopped out. It feels great to know that we have knocked one thing off of our list that seems like it is a million pages long!! Knowing that all of these items we are registering for are going to help to build our life together, makes this time even more exciting!!!
With all of that being said, we think we finished most of our registering!! Yay!!! We are registered at Target, Crate and Barrel and Bed, Bath and Beyond. We still have a few more things to add, but for the most part we are proud of ourselves for knocking that out of the way. One more step closer to being married!
