Yesterday and today have been fun days!
Yesterday, Dustin and I went to Milwaukee to run some errands that needed running. We also started our wedding registry with Target Club Wedd! Dustin was very skeptical about starting our registry and joked about staying in the car, but I enjoyed his company as we looked through housewares that we may soon call our own!

| This thing was kind of awesome. |
There were so many rows upon rows of things to look at and consider...I'm going to be revising what I put on the list and be adding more things. Dustin and I spent today looking for a place to live. I may change the color of things I requested depending on where we will be living!

| Dustin and I really loved the red dinnerware set on the very most left hand side! |
I started feeling guilty about everything I scanned at Target. I kept realizing that there were things I am accustomed to cooking with in my parents house that actually cost a very pretty penny to purchase. It amazes me to think how much money places like Target must make from wedding registries alone. Does anyone have any advise on how I can get over this?

| So many choices!! I think I was looking and debating over the right size soup pot. After all...who doesn't like homemade soup?! |
Stay tuned! Tomorrow I'm writing more on the money I spent today! Will I be able to keep my budget? Here is to hoping!

I had the same issue when we went to register at Bed Bath & Beyond. I was feeling so guilty I started looking at just the prices rather than if I liked the item or not. Josh was having a blast while I became anxious over everything we were scanning. Josh had to sit me down and explain the registry is a wish list for what we want to start out new lives together. By adding an arrangement of items it allows people to stay in their budget and as well as get something you want. We have everything from $5 wooden spoons to a $200 kitchen aid mixer. You never know, someone may work at a place where they can get that $200 item for only $75! So have fun!

And, there's things that *if* you receive them, they'll last a long, long time - like the Kitchen Aid mixer or a set of Calphalon pans. And people want to know what you want and need, so it's a helpful guide - NOT a list of demands! ;D Having a variety of items at different prices (as you know, all those inexpensive items can add up if you have to purchase them all yourselves!), will allow your friends and family to purchase within their budgets. :) And having a registry also lets your friends and family know that someone else already got you "Item X," so you don't end up with half a dozen fondue pots. <>
