I went with a registry, this year, I’m somewhat worried about duplicate gifts, I understand It might help.., It will require some extra effort on the part of the wonderful gift givers ( any gift is wonderful if it comes from the heart,) … ( and is of the list)… I feel WE will both will enjoy the experience and this will eliminate the return process,..In years past I didn’t receive many (ANY) gifts, If felt with a little direction on my part, Giving would be more comfortable, This all stems from Me having to share Daddogs FB page,and the lack of “It’s Lexis BirthDay,send Her a Greeting” That everyone else receives on FB,… I realize it is early, My Birthday isn’t until the 17th, But we all live such busy lives
