Babies on the Brain

Creative juices (please help!)

My sister in law is getting married this Saturday.  I have decided to make her a basket for when she returns home from the honeymoon.  For the basket, I'm gotten some little things that the couple can enjoy after all the wedding stress & tons of family leave to go back home.  A couple bottles of wine, Ghiradelli chocolates, relaxing bubble bath, a hand-painted wine stopper, a Yankee candle called "Home Sweet Home," and some snacks - cheese sticks (it's a southern thing) & sweet & spicy mix.  I'm also thinking of adding a magazine or two - just so they can enjoy a relaxing night at home or afternoon on a Saturday.  He's a doctor and works funky hours - so they don't get too much alone time together.  

So, I wanted to write a simple cute poem in the card that explains the basket, about "once you return from paradise and are back into reality.." something about hoping they can have a relaxing evening enjoying being Mr. and Mrs., a quiet night at home after all the stress of the wedding is now over, etc. etc.

 Anyone feel like being creative and helping me out?! Thanks :)

  • Ok I figured it out, this is what I came up with...

    Normal 0 MicrosoftInternetExplorer4 /* Style Definitions */ table.MsoNormalTable {mso-style-name:"Table Normal"; mso-tstyle-rowband-size:0; mso-tstyle-colband-size:0; mso-style-noshow:yes; mso-style-parent:""; mso-padding-alt:0in 5.4pt 0in 5.4pt; mso-para-margin:0in; mso-para-margin-bottom:.0001pt; mso-pagination:widow-orphan; font-size:10.0pt; font-family:"Times New Roman";}

    As you return home from honeymoon life,

    And the stress of the wedding is through,

    We hope you?ll enjoy this basket of goodies,

    On a quiet night home, just the two of you.

     

    The small things in life are sometimes the best,

    A glass of wine, candlelight, and a bubble bath...

    Take time to enjoy the new life you?ve begun,

    You?re now ?Mr. and Mrs.? -- congrats!
