Getting Married? Register at Best Buy!

Blog· Entertainment· Tech

“The Years Go By Fast, The Days Go By Slow”

Celebrating 1 yearIt’s still hard for me to wrap my mind around the fact that I’ve been married a year. It’s a bit crazy to think about because the year has flown by. We’ve been busy traveling, remodeling our house and enjoying being kid free. I’m really enjoying this season of life and adventuring as much as possible. It’s crazy to see so many of my friends getting married for the first (or second) time and and seeing those that I grew up with having babies. I remember just a few years ago, I thought people in their 30’s were old.  I can’t say that now since I’m nearing the end of my 20’s.

When Quinn and I got married, we were both on the same page. We didn’t want a big expensive wedding, we wanted a celebration. After a couple conversations, we knew instantly that we would head to the justice of the peace and have a small group of our family join us. It was so simple, so perfect, so us.

Since I like to throw parties and many people were wondering why we didn’t invite them to our ‘wedding,’ we knew we still had to have our celebration that we had talked about. We ended up having a party at our house with close friends and family. It was low key and just what we wanted. For our party, we registered at a few of our favorite places but we were a bit torn. All of the things that we needed, were large (expensive) items and there was no way we were going to put a refrigerator or $300 vacuum on our list. We added a few small items and left it at that even though, there were items that we needed more.

I never understood why there wasn’t a group buying system for weddings, birthdays or any celebration. It would just make everybody’s lives easier. Well guess what? Best Buy came our with a registry with a group gifting option! If only this was available when I was getting married!

Best Buy Group Gifting  allows gift-givers to contribute any amount they want, so couples can ask for the gifts they really want and not worry about price point. Group Gifting allows couples to ask for what they really want, without asking their guests to spend more than they are comfortable with—so they can dream big.

I decided to recreate a registry with Best Buy with items that I would have added to my list when I was getting married. (A girl can dream, right?)Add These Items To Your Wedding Registry

Wedding Registry Must Haves

  4. Frigidaire 8-Bottle Wine Cooler: Keep a few of your favorite bottles of wine chilled inside this Frigidaire wine cooler, which features sliding chrome shelves for quick access to stored items. Simply select the appropriate temperature using the digital controls.
  5. LG double oven gas range: Cook delectable meals for a crowd with this range, which provides 2 ovens for a total capacity of 6.1 cu. ft. EvenJet convection technology in the lower oven circulates heat evenly to ensure worry-free baking of soufflés and more. EasyClean by LG enables a quick cleaning.

I wish Best Buy had a registry when I was getting married. You better believe I’m making a registry for my birthday to make up for it! What items would you add to the list?

One of my favorite things about 2020.... businesse One of my favorite things about 2020.... businesses adapting and making things work! I was recently introduced to @savageburritos and I'm in love.  Savage Burritos is the love child of Uncle Julios so it you like UJ, you'll love Savage.  They are a delivery only service offering burritos and bowls from select Uncle Julio kitchens in DFW. We ordered a variety of items from burritos, bowls, queso and more. Every single item was bursting with flavor. If you like spicy,  I highly recommend the Nashville Hot Chicken Burrito. 🔥 Don't forget to add on a Margarita pop - nothing beats alcohol and Mexican food delivered straight to your door!

I know this year has dragged on and on for many pe I know this year has dragged on and on for many people but it has flown by to me. I'm 100% sure it has something to do with welcoming Myles into this world during the height of a pandemic and keeping a toddler alive at the same time.  I can't wait for Christmas morning to make memories with my little family (even though Christmas shopping isn't complete and I haven't even thought about wrapping presents). It will all fall in to place, it always does. We didn't attend our favorite Christmas events this year or get pictures with Santa so this random Santa picture will do and I'm 100% happy with it.  If this year has taught you anything,  let it be finding the joy in the little things ❤
The holidays are quickly approaching! 🎄 Althoug The holidays are quickly approaching! 🎄 Although things might be a bit different this season, we're still enjoying some of our favorite foods and traditions. This year we're incorporating ordering family meal kits from @chuysrestaurant for not only my family but extended family that we might not be able to hang with this holiday.  It's a simple way to spread the joy with loved ones, eat delicious food and not forget the reason for the season.  #ad #nachoaverageholiday
Family pictures are always so much fun.... this ye Family pictures are always so much fun.... this year we got to attempt it twice thanks to sweet Bryce.  Thankfully the second time around he cooperated. As painful as they may be,  I'm so glad we get these done every year. I love looking back at them and see how much we've all changed and how much the kids have grown!
Can y'all believe the end of the year is here? We Can y'all believe the end of the year is here? We got our family pictures back and they look great other than the fact that Bryce decided not to participate. We got one shot with my entire family and Bryce is off to the side playing in poison ivy. 🤦‍♀️

I wanted to send a quick thank you for all the birthday love yesterday! Birthdays are not my favorite day but it was nice to hear from so many people. Here's to another year around the sun ❤
This weekend we ventured to @kidzaniausa, a city r This weekend we ventured to @kidzaniausa, a city ran completely by kids. Your child gets to fully immerse themselves into role playing any job they can imagine. From checking animals at the veterinarian, putting out fires as a firefighter,  flying planes in an simulator, creating their own personal logo with Bic, or being a weatherman at WFAA - the options are endless! Kidzania activities are for ages 4 and up.

We felt very comfortable inside with their safety protocols. Temperatures were checked before entering.  Everybody ages 4 and up must wear a mask.  Hand sanitizer was readily available throughout the entire space.  If you're looking for a fun outlet for your child to explore, check it out!
