Our First Registry!

On Saturday, we started our first registry, at Target. We decided to go with Target for the "little things" that I was debating about in this post. Registering definitely lived up to the hype. The only problem? Ryan is a TOTAL scanner gun hog. Here he is in action:

He is scanning some stainless steel trash cans that we later deleted, because they have better ones in the bathroom department! This picture was taken early in the day when our scanner gun ACTUALLY WORKED. Our gun stopped working and beeped constantly, and finally a store worker told us to hit the yellow button on the side instead of the trigger, which is totally not as fun. One of my favorite registry items is the Pink Dyson DC07 vacuum. Sadly, I really like to vacuum, so Ryan could care less what color our vacuum is. Here I am with the Dyson, one of the 4 or 5 things I actually got to scan that day!


I never thought I could be so in love with a vacuum cleaner. Isn't she a beauty? Here are some other Target Registry highlights:

The Brown Halfmoon Hampers with Linen (I have wanted these since the day I first saw them!):


My other personal favorite items are the 24-packs of Cherry Wood Hangers (we requested 8 boxes, but probably need more!) I don't know what my deal is with cherry wood hangers. I just love how nice and neat a closet looks with everything hung on them!

Another thing I just realized as I was doing this post, several things that we registered for are not showing up on the registry, so I had to add them online. I don't know if this is a result of the faulty gun or what, but I would recommend rechecking everything once you are finished. I can't wait to give this registry thing another go at Macy's this weekend!

I LOVE the pink Dyson! I wish they had that when we got married in 2007.

Enjoy your week!

Just a warning...Target is horrible with returns! Hopefully everyone gives your a gift receipt in the case of duplicates! We registered at Macy's...it was a good time! And yeah...Jeremy hogged the freaking gun too!

Gotta love a Dyson! I bought the "animal" one about three years ago and it is just fabulous, considering I vacuum so much dog hair on a daily basis! Brad steals mine all the time, but hey if he vacuums, steal on brother!

Remember, I'm in Lex all next week, starting the 20th so get ready to grub!
