It's amazing what you find when you clean your room.

You know how you unpack your suitcase the minute you get home from a trip?

Ha ha ha. Was I pulling that off? Of course I don't do that.
The minute I get home from a trip, I lay down for a nap!
One must always have a vacation after their vacation.
I guess that philosophy is why I live in a sea of clothes, papers, etc.
(It's not quite as bad as THIS, but it's no OCD-ridden space either.)

Anyway! That's not the point. The point is that I FOUND something today while I was unpacking my suitcase from this fun I had:

 You see, six years ago I did this: 

(got married)

Instead of a traditional honeymoon (which costs money), Husband and I went to a super amazing bed & breakfast. It was absolutely gorgeous, and we soaked up every moment of our 12-hour "honeymoon" there.

However, when we got home, my mother asked me where my "something borrowed" (and old, and blue) was. I couldn't find it. For almost six years I have had guilt that I lost my mother's garter she let me wear for my wedding.

Well, ladies and gentlemen, it has been recovered.
The suitcase I took to Wendover this weekend was apparently the very same suitcase I took on my "honeymoon" to the B&B back in 2005. There, in the front pocket, was my mom's blue garter, looking as good as it did the day she loaned it to me. :)
