We Registered!

After many people asking where we were registered and not having an answer, we decided to go on Friday night and register. We started at Bed Bath and Beyond. Bryan was hoping for a gun, but we got a low battery scanner. Not that exciting. Something about Bed Bath and Beyond stresses me out. I think it is how much stuff is crammed into a very small store. Regardless, we went about our way and scanned the things we need. Being in our 30's we have most everything we need, and since it is tacky to say Hey, we just want cash, we scanned quite a bit of things. I had to later go back and remove some items because no one needs to get us a margarita machine ($240 bucks), a beach towel that looks like a big tattoo (Bryan's doing) or Bumpits. Although I am intrigued by Bumpits, I do not need someone else getting it for us.  We found bedding we liked, but it was partially white, and we fear it will be destroyed by a little messy child also known as Torrin. We decided to wait on shower curtains, bedding and possible dishes. There was nothing that excited us all that much. Plus it was a tad bit overwhelming. Pictures had to be taken, of course:

Bryan scanning our first item. Cereal containers. I know, we are wild and crazy like that!

My first time scanning. A bundt pan...

After we were finished at Bed Bath and Beyond we went to Target. It was snowing so we thought about skipping it but we needed to get Easter candy (for the Easter Bunny of course. We are his helpers.) Target was where we planned on getting the fun things. Board games (we have none unless it is a child's), Wii games, and several other things. Bryan was so excited because at Target, they have "guns" as their scanners. He was ready to rock:

What did Bryan want to register for? 

Yes, a 35 dart Nerf gun. Sure, it isn't practical but he wants it. Later on we thought we should go back and register for 3 more so we can have a family Nerf fight. Something to think about.

On the other hand, I was a tad bit more practical. I want a small photo printer. Not likely something someone would buy, but hey, why not register and see what happens.

I would love to register other places, but I don't want to go overboard. We wanted to do a honeymoon registry but we have no idea when and where we are going to go. For most registries, you need to have the hotel picked, activities, flights, etc and we are nowhere near that point. We also looked into doing a "wishing well" where people can contribute to a house, honeymoon, etc. fund. Sure, it sounds great, but whoever contributes is charged a 7.5% fee. No thanks. We will just pray for cash :)

We had a lot of fun registering and maybe we will register somewhere else just so we can do it again!
