Blue Mountain!
It's been a busy last few weeks:
- planning for this Team Lead Training I'm helping run this weekend up at Blue Mountain. 34 or so people total, 3 days of content. Good food, good people, good fun so far though! (and ridiculously nice hotel rooms)
- buying wedding rings...we finally pulled the trigger. The hard part...neither Laura or I have actually seen our rings yet. The store only had 20-30 rings in stock, so we ordered ours out of their catalog of 500 or so rings that all looked practically the same. I think we'll both really like them, just hope they fit properly etc. Think we're going to not do engraving.
- crate and barrel: finally some success with wedding registry stuff! we went to one of their early morning gift registry things...the store is closed to "regular" people, only about 10 couples were there, they had waffles, juices, snacks etc, and we managed to put 10 things on the registry!
- work...starting a new project at work for the same client. Should be an interesting next 6 months or so, but it's a bit of a weird spot right now since I'm doing the old and the new at the same time for the next month or so. Upside - we'll be launching a piece to the website that we'd originally worked on but that got shelved just before our April launch date...happy that it'll finally see the light of day!
- had dinner with sara/dave, ali and muriel's good intentions the other day. Definitely one of the best parts of toronto is having friends nearby! Looking forward to seeing everyone else TWICE in July!

When I go to the Crate and Barrel website you're not listed in the registry section! Where are you?

I noticed that myself - I sort of think maybe the website only has US registries (I think Ali said something about that?).
I think it might require actually going into the store : (

Yes, you can't access Canadian registries online. You can phone their 1-800 and they can send you a pdf of what they have registered for. You then go on the website and choose something. then you can order it by phone.
Or, can go to the store.
