almost all of the answers for this question involved !$@*#. There was a very wide range of descriptions for !$@*#, but the above are our favorites
Lindsey’s favorite animal is: OTTERS
true story: when i was younger i had a little cookie tin with an otter on the lid and i loved it so much. i also had a necklace with an otter charm and i wanted to be a marine biologist when i grew up so i could play with otters all of the time and get paid. so, when Will took me to the Okefenokee Swamp Park two summers ago i was sooo happy!! and spent an hour and a half by the otter habitat. he came up to the gate and i swear he was trying to play an otter game with me. i loved him and made Will come with me visit him with me several times while we were there...and every time we've gone after that too!
Will’s favorite movie is: FORREST GUMP
Michael and four other people’s answer: BROKEBACK MOUNTAIN
no words for that one!!! :)
i also wanted to share a couple of the notes our family left us as part of our guestbook. my favorite one, hands down, is from my Grandpa Gertz:
I WILL ALWAYS REMEMBER YOUR WEDDING DAY BECAUSE…
“1. Lindsey and Will looked happy together
2. The location was very beautiful
3. I have never tried pumpkin beer before
4. Lindsey wore boots
5. Will wore boots too
6. Lindsey worked very hard to make the nice wedding gifts for everyone
6. The southern food was really good
7. I got to meet Will’s family and they are very nice people”
“It was the most unique and original wedding I have ever attended” --Nanny (Will's Aunt Ginger)

there were a lot of different kinds of “advice” left for us (some funny, some serious), but the most meaningful words of wisdom were given by Nanny:
WORDS OF WISDOM AND ADVICE TO LAST A LIFETIME…
“Always put each other first in your life – you are your own family now”
at first it seemed like a given, but after being married for three months, i can now say that i very, very truly understand what she means by that.
Will is making fried deer backstrap (aka deer nuggets) for dinner tonight and i am sooo excited! it's his very own recipe and as gross as it sounds (eh hemm Grandma Carolyn!) they're pretty much amazing. it is time for me to go home and spend some time with my husband since these are probably the last two days we'll have to hunt/hang out/relax together until the semester is over.
happy weekend everyone!
