Fun At Crate and Barrel

Posted by: Dan on Feb 17, 2008

Crate & Barrel had this little thing for couples who are registering at their store. Brooke called a while back to see if we could do it but turns out they were full.

Well… Brooke got a call the other day to say that there was an opening on Sunday February 17th and we could come. Awesome. With the weather forecast for today we weren’t sure if it was going to be possible, but we gave it a go. Brooke drove since my car would have been a nightmare if there were any icy spots. We made it there just fine – just a little before nine – and headed in.

They had some food and drinks out which was nice. But what was even better is that they had a waffle station and a panini station! Sweet! And for the record we had waffles … and they were goooood.

Anyway they split the couples into groups of six to give you some information about registration. However Brooke and I had started a registry there a while back so we were good to go. After the briefing we were set free in the store to do our thing – pretty nice not having any “normal” shoppers in the store.

We had to make a few changes to the registry since the cookware we wanted they didn’t have anymore. We also found a few new things.

Oh and for being at this little gathering Crate & Barrel gave us (well all couples registering) a heart shaped, glass dish. It’s pretty awesome if you ask me.

It really was a great time. Brooke and I were having a ball joking around and being sassy (I’d say it was all her but in reality the sas came from me). Brooke noticed something and mentioned it to me… and she was right on the money. We seemed to be the only couple that was laughing (a lot).

That’s how we roll (inside joke) – we like to have a good time and poke fun of situations, items, ourselves, etc. I mean you’re only registering, let loose people and have some fun.

All in all it made me realize something. I don’t know where our life together will lead us but where we go we’ll be there to make each other laugh. And I love that about her.
