Well, my second (and last) spring break visit to Texas! Last because after this, there won’t be any more spring breaks for me! I had my first wedding shower yesterday and it was quite a bit of fun. I don’t have any photos yet, but there sure was quite a few that were taken. I think I smiled for the camera more than anything else!

So here’s the list of shower presents for all those that want to know. First, I wanted to thank anyone that may have given something to us, all the gifts were lovely; even the ones not on our registry. We are pleased and very thankful! At the end of the post, I’ll put some information for other attendees who need a hotel for the wedding or want to send a gift. (These are in order of opening.)

  1. Throw pillows (matches with bedspread)
  2. Picture frame
  3. 8 quart pot
  4. Crystal wine decanter
  5. 1 place setting of china
  6. set of three frying pans
  7. 1 place setting
  8. measuring spoons and pyrex corningware set
  9. 10″ omelet pan
  10. bedspread (matches with throw pillows)
  11. toaster
  12. pyrex glass bakeware
  13. spice rack – prefilled with spices!
  14. 1 place setting
  15. 2 place settings
  16. handheld electric mixer
  17. vacuum cleaner
  18. blender and food processor combo
  19. 8×10 picture frame
  20. Better Homes and Gardens Cookbook
  21. pyrex corningware bake set (possibly same as #8)
  22. some monetary and gift card presents

So that was our haul! According to our registries, we’ve received a few other things but they haven’t been given to us or haven’t come in through the mail yet. I imagine we will continue to receive things up until our wedding date. Now I’ve got to start making thank you cards!

So here’s the info that I promised: hotels and motels can be found by downloading this word document. Our Amazon registry can be found here. Look up either me or Mike’s names in the registry place for Bed Bath and Beyond or Target to find our registries there. Happy hunting! Oh, and the wedding shower in Nova Scotia, we’re trying to NOT have actual gifts, so if you would like to give one, please have it sent to Texas (addresses are on the registries).
