Due to the nature of this event, and the space we are using, we had to limit the number of people invited. We want to emphasize that this was a difficult decision making process and we love you all! Those invited to the Silent Reflection received an additional invitation in their envelope. The name(s) stated at the top of that special invite are invited to this portion of the day.
We are registered on Amazon and at Bed Bath and Beyond. You will notice that there are not many items on either registry. Jed recently moved into Shae’s (fairly small) house. After combining two households worth of things (along with our two roommates' already established things), we are at near capacity for home decor, kitchen needs and other common registry items. We are also interested in leading a simple, economically conscience lifestyle. Seriously, everyone says this, but gifts are absolutely not necessary. Your love and presence in our lives is all we need.
Fear not, the following are welcome and appreciated alternatives to “things”: Donations in honor of Shae’s cousin, Mo Elliott, to Family Tree Clinic in Minneapolis Experience gifts. Activities we enjoy include bowling, golf, snowshoeing, kayaking, running, trying new environmentally-conscious restaurants and traveling. Activities we are interested in trying include woodworking, glass blowing and pretty much anything outdoors (Jed has a particular affinity for winter activities). Handmade items. We absolutely love receiving items that our friends and family created. If you have a hobby or skill that you enjoy, please feel welcome to go this route! Money. We have some big hopes and dreams that (unfortunately) require funds. These include buying a new home, setting up our current house for renting, traveling to England to visit Jed’s family and having/raising some kids. We do not have an online place to send funds because we are bad at internetting, so cash or check it must be.
