Registering

The Tortoise and I went to register yesterday at Bed, Bath, and Beyond.  They were so great to work with, and we had so much fun.  It really was a great time deciding on what would fill our future apartment.  I can totally visualize where everything will go, how we will hang things on the wall, and exactly what it will look like.  Oh wait, we haven't even started looking for apartments yet!  Ha!  I swear I can still picture it...

We got a lot of the basics put on the registry, and are so excited about it.  While I did catch myself at one point saying, "This is all boy stuff!  You will live with a GIRL, remember?"  I think we did a great job compromising on things and finding stuff we both really, really like.  Luckily, my taste for decorating is really not "girly" in the traditional sense at all.

It was a blast, to say the least.  Here are some of my favorite registry items.  It might be a favorite because it's a big, essential item that will really mold the way our apartment looks, or because it is a totally fun and silly item, but these really stuck out in my mind:

Colorwave Dishes in 2 colors for mix and match possibilities

Our Bedding Choice (it's on clearance, so we're REALLY hoping someone snatches it up fast before it's gone... wink,wink)  (Maybe that's rude to say that... but I'm an impulsive Hare, remember?)

The Bright Green, White, and Black towels for the bathroom.  These are the colors we are decorating the bathroom with.  (Roger liked black and white, I needed a bit of color.  Gotta love the compromising.)

                     

Yummy smelling Candles (the Wood Wick ones are so cool.  You can hear the wick crackling like a campfire)

Super cute wine and champagne glasses

And one of the super silly items.  Ice cube trays that produce little shot glass shapped ice cubes!  Funny!

We had a blast!
