A note about our registry: You may have noticed that the usual registry suspects (silver, plate settings, serving platters, etc...) are missing from the list. Lisa's mother passed away two years ago, and Lisa inherited her mother's china sets, silver set, crystal, silverware, and many other household items, which now have special meaning to us. We probably won't be moving into a mansion that would necessitate (or have space for) even more china, silver, etc. any time soon ;). But, we do want some other things, which we've listed here :). If you don't find something suitably cool, feel free to bring something in your own particular... idiom. Or, just bring yourself, which is what we really care about!
