Good Deed Sunday: I Read, We Walked 90-Minutes, and We Went to the Store to Get a Gift for Dominik and Kaitlyn's House

Saturday night, when I went to Dominik and Kaitlyn's house, I didn't bring a housewarming gift. Well, technically, Dom has lived there for some time, and Kaitlyn moved in quite a while ago, but I've never been over. Then, with the engagement, weddings, etc. I got confused on what the rules of etiquette were supposed to be.

So, before the Euro Championship between Italy and England, I scoped around town to see if I could find Echinacea and Buddleia davidii (butterfly bushes). I scored as much as Italy did. They won. 

I can now say that I've planted some butterfly life and memories in their backyard for the days up to the wedding, until September when it actually occurs. It's sort of a waltz (or polka) before the day gets here. Every year when they bloom, they can reflect on the time between Patrick/Steph's and their own wedding. In between will be butterflies and hummingbirds (we can hope). 

They must remember to plant them, however, so they can grow.

And it seems to be a good Sunday gift, because it's all back to Monday this morning. Keeping this short - there's work to be done.
