Hello, all you wonderful people!

"The joy of the Lord is our strength"--and you have been a part of us seeing His joy in our lives, so for that we want to thank you!

Whether you can make it to Fayetteville or a celebration later in North Carolina, know our joy is greater because you're in our lives.

We have created this honeymoon registry because we are pretty well set in the "durable goods" category (but for those who love to give physical gifts, we've listed a few things at <a href="http://www.bedbathandbeyond.com/regGiftRegistry.asp?wrn=-1287411149&">Bed, Bath and Beyond</a>, <a href="http://www.target.com/RegistryGiftGiverCmd?isPreview=false&status=completePageLink&listId=xc4fHKlT3_yI_P3ETSrKzA&registryType=WD&isAjax=false">Target</a>, <a href="http://www.potterybarn.com/registry/2928412/registry-list.html">Pottery Barn</a> and <a href="http://www.crateandbarrel.com/Gift-Registry/Guest/View-Registry.aspx?grid=4831910">Crate and Barrel</a>). Here, you can choose to give us an experience! We love the beach, and so have chosen this quiet, secluded <a href="http://www.vrbo.com/262998">bungalow</a> on the Caribbean coast of Costa Rica to chill all week, ending with a fabulous night in a swanky hotel in the capital city of San Jose.

Our kids will be in two different places, so we've added a little section for them and their caretakers.

We can't wait to share pictures and stories with you, so be sure we have your email address or friend one of us on Facebook!

Hugs and blessings from us,
Lou and Amy

PS Lou chose the website address. We'll be getting him spelling lessons upon our return. Go Duke!!

We're going to Cocles Beach, Limon!

The one thing both of us wanted was alone time in a warm place with sun, sand and those little umbrella drinks. We found it! We have both traveled all over the world, but neither of us have been to Costa Rica, so we're excited to experience this beautiful country with its playful monkeys, lazy sloths (whom we will do our bests to imitate) and gorgeous scenery.

Grocery trip to stock the kitchen for the week! We'll be able to cook together (both of us love that!), so we'll hit Piripli, the fully-stocked, gourmet grocery store just up the road from our bungalow.

Breakfast at the Bakery! A few mornings, we just may need to wander down the road to the Casa del Pan Bakery, "great breakfasts with fresh juices, fresh bread and fresh pastries." We like fresh!

Soda Johanna, described as, "a small, family-run restaurant, offering great fresh Costa Rican seafood meals." Yum! We need to go there at least once...how about twice?
