Hello all! - Pinging everyone on my hobbit list because I certainly don't want to forget anyone who sent $$$ and kind wishes! I wanted to let you all know that ecurbh and I have been saving the money that you all gave at our
Entmoot surprise shower! We have had it all this time in a little box we brought back with us.
It was a lot of money and we wanted to decide what would really be the right thing to buy with it. Spending it on things like fencing and new gates didn't really seem like the kind of thing that would give you all a warm fuzzy feeling.
Well.... I am going to buy my wedding dress with it. It is enough to buy the simple Nani Hawaiian Wedding Dress that I still like the best after all the looking. All the fancy-schmancy dresses in bridal magazines would be so uncomfortable to wear on the beach. This one I can wear, and I can sit down or go to the bathroom without a team of attendants, which I think will make for a better day!
We really appreciate the thought you all put in to that shower for us! - And since money is really tight, it is very helpful to have your gift to help us out!
Again.....
Thank you very much!
We really love you all!

mstar.... I want to write a special note because you wrote a check instead of cash, I apologize for sitting on it this long. I know realize doing that can make it a pickle for you to balance your checkbook. I wanted to make sure it is still OK to deposit it.

That's awesome! Great use of those funds!
Snow tubing was great, we went with a church group and the pastor gave us a little devotion first about reminding us whose fault the Crucifiction really is... some of us are going to see The Passion this afternoon...

I'm so glad you're getting that cool Hawaiian dress. It's gonna look great on you, especially since you'll be comfortable in it.
