Date GirlMatch Guy, Wedding Plans Jericho, Wedding, wedding registries
Mimi: I’m still trying to figure out how to make our wedding registry vital to national security.
Stanley: You’re already planning our wedding registry?
Mimi: Oh, since I was twelve. And I’ve already taken off the list luxury items that we already have such as your Star Wars collectors’ glasses. -Jericho
I’m so excited to finally be able to fill out a wedding registry! Of course we still have to set the date, but when we do…we’re going to have so much fun picking out things for the registry. I just need to tell my practical Virgo side that it’s ok to register for pretty things, like serving platters and a new dinner set, instead of
allergy mattress covers or a vacuum (though I’d be happy with those too!). I love shopping off registries because you know the person you’re giving for actually wants these things. I want to try to avoid getting anything super weird-thanks for the baby maker blanket grandma! That’s not awkward at all…

- Monica: You wanted it to be a surprise.
- Chandler: Oh my God.
- Monica: Chandler… in all my life I never thought I’d be so lucky as to fall in love with my best — my best — There’s a reason why girls don’t do this!

And if you let me, I will spend the rest of my life making sure you feel the same way. Monica, will you marry me?

Date GirlMatch Guy, Me blog awards, happy, Men in Trees
We crawl, then walk, then run, all in an effort to move further away from where they came from… home. I know firsthand the thrill of what changing one’s surroundings can do for one’s heart, and now I also know that sometimes staying home and letting others go can be its own fantastic journey. Because when you let go of something, you make room for something else entirely, something you never expected, something that makes “home” seem like its own unexpected adventure… A trip where new treasures are found around every old corner, for the world and all its complexities come right to your doorstep. -Marin, Men in Trees
Don’t forget to enter my contest below everyone. I’ll pick a winner on the road and announce it before Christmas *hopefully!* But do enter, please, I want to give away some $!!
