st. louis or bust

ann and dabney are driving to st. louis this week for crazy bride and golfin' groom's wedding shower. ann and dabney foolishly offered to cater the affair, because they didn't have enough fun doing the wedding invitations a couple of weeks ago.

here's an inventory of everything that needs to fit in their car- the junk in their trunk if you will:

1. 250 ivory-colored capiz boxes purchased in and shipped back from the philippines, to become crazy bride's wedding favors
2. 20 rattan boxes, 40 tea cups, and 20 spoons, to become hotel room gifts for out-of-town guests
3. one 65 lb. springer spaniel
4. one round dog bed for said springer spaniel
5. one set of golf clubs
6. two tennis racquets, three cans of balls, and two pairs of tennis shoes
7. three cookbooks (for reading in the car to figure out what to cook for 45 people on saturday)
8. ten trays (to serve the food once they figure out what it will be)
9. one imac and accompanying cords, to be sent to ann's family in the philippines
10.enough clothes for a week for ann and dabney

they'll try to post periodically throughout the week, but tonight they'll be in some red roof inn somewhere in ohio without web access. to give you an idea, here's a photo from the last time they made the long haul to the "show me state."
