Registry.

Beautiful view on stuff. "Because when you stand in front of everyone you love and to make your vows, many of them know something that you don't: that marriage is complicated and that a life together is longer than you can imagine. They don't just want to come to your wedding, have a few drinks and do the conga line. They want to provide tangible support for the two of you as you grow and build a life together."

It's so true! Like the gift is a tangible representation of all of my prayers and dreams for them. As the gift getter it's decidedly less comfortable... being gracious is a gift. Speaking of gifts, I got the most beautiful carnations yesterday and they are perfect on my night table! Joshua is a pro-gifter.

THREE GREAT GIFTS FOR A WEDDING:

1. Beautiful light towels. With stripes. From Turkey.

2. A cart. Literally a million uses for a cart in a neutral.

3. A cleaning caddy with healthy cleaning supplies to start married life so fresh and so clean clean!

And the one thing I will never give as a gift? Photo frames. If that is the last thing on your registry I will buy you toilet paper or lube or a gallon of fat free milk. Never a photo frame.
