The 'irrestible shop' of McMaster & Storm has opened an online boutique full of all sorts of ephemera & goodies (I found them thanks to housemartin).

I also managed to find a graduation present for a France-traveling friend of mine (there's nothing like planning ahead!). Ribbon, soaps, swan figurines--all things sentimental and in the most delicate way.

A few instances: I've been eyeing this necklace for months now:
We received our first wedding present last week--a birding field guide and call recording (such a poetic gift).
And, yesterday, checking out the ceremony site, we spotted a magnolia warbler, a somewhat rare sight in Nebraska from what I understand. The little guy looked like this:

Fancy feathered creatures everywhere. Somehow things are coming together...hmmmm!
