Hi all!

So, I completed my registry at Home Outfitters about 2 weeks ago, and I just got a phone message from the woman at H.O. who helped us set-up the registry, saying "Hope you had a good experience, and please call if you have any questions about the pamphlets we gave you."  I haven't even looked at that package of papers she gave me, so I thought "I'll just have a look at my list online."

So I sign on, and at the very bottom of the list of stuff is a list of "fully purchased items."  And I'm like WTF??  The wedding isn't for 8 months, and there aren't any showers planned!

I'm going out of town to visit family next weekend.

I think I just unearthed a surprise.

....which sucks cuz I love surprises.

awww thats so sweet of them!!! I would think it would still be a surprise because you don't know who bought you which item yet .. so that's going to be surprising!!! .. Just try and act as surprised as you can!!!

The heart of a mother is a deep abyss at the bottom of which you will always find forgiveness.

Making the decision to have a child-it's momentous. It is to decide forever to have your heart go walking around outside your body.

The mother's heart is the child's schoolroom.

To understand a mother's love, bear your own children.

Mother is the name for God on the lips& in the hearts of little children.

A mother is the truest friend we have, when trials, heavy and sudden, fall upon us; when adversity takes the place of prosperity; when friends who rejoice with us in our sunshine, desert us when troubles thicken around us, still will she cling to us, and endeavor by her kind precepts and counsels to dissipate the clouds of darkness, and cause peace to return to our hearts.

Mrs. M and loving it!!!

Awww, that sucks if you ruined the surprise, but it's awesome that something is planned for you! It's also great that they're buying off your registry. It looks like nobody is buying off mine and I know a lot of people already have shower gifts for me so I have no idea what they got. I have very particular tastes so hopefully I like everything.

Let us know what they planned for you when you get back!
