Our Wonderful Gifts


As we have gone through the planning of the wedding, Jeff and I have gotten some wonderful gifts already. My dad and Cindi for an engagement present gave us a margarita machine, okay do they know me or what. I can't wait to open that thing up and get it going, I have been so tempted already but trying to wait. Also, Mom and Barney bought our honeymoon for us, a cruise. For my birthday I got gift cards to Kirkland's (thanks Terra and Casey), Target card and memory keepsake book (thanks Mom), candle holder and wall plaque for our new house (thanks Bill, Genevieve, and Nedra), to lots of other thoughtful things. All the gifts have been so sweet. This past week, Jeff and I received a wonderful wedding present as well. His aunt Nedra, had already bought our gift and could not wait to give it to us. We were so surprised and excited when his dad opened the garage up and showed us the brand new grill we had registered for. WE LOVE IT! She just thought it was something we could use right away and "why wait till November" she said. I can't wait to try it out myself, seems easy enough. Jeff LOVES to grill and he was happy to have gotten it, I know he can't wait to use it. We both were very touched by the gift and her generosity, it means a lot both of us. We are both so blessed to have a family that loves us, supports us, and is so happy for us. That in itself is the really blessing of our marriage...
