dunhaven; ic community.

Hello, friends! With it being two weeks into 2020, I've been working pretty steadily on my planner and getting all of my exciting dates for the new year sorted out. I like having things to look forward to, especially since I'm packing my last semester of undergrad full of credits, and one of those things I'm looking forward to is this five year anniversary that I will be celebrating in March. Thinking about it has me all full of warm fuzzies and since it's been a while since I did one of these open forum sort of things, now seems like a good time.

So, here's my question! What is your meet cute? AKA how did you meet your partner? Give me all of the heart eyes with your stories, please and thank you.

Today is Make Your Dreams Come True Day, in case you didn't have enough pressure on you this January Monday. 😏

JUN

Hey. I don't suppose I can reserve you for July 11?

ELIJAH & EMBRY

Stella and I talked and we've decided that we're going to do a full blown wedding, instead of the courthouse idea that we'd been leaning towards. We're looking at July 11, if everything works out with venues. Will you guys stand up there with me? I'm going to talk to Ed about it, too.

EZRA

What are the chances you would like to be a groomsman this summer?

SISTERS

I super adulted this week. Picked a major (they were hounding me about that AND I COULDN'T DECIDE WHICH I WANTED TO GO WITH) AND got my first paycheck from my job at the Wellness place and totally paid rent ON TIME and didn't spend it all at 5 Below.

I deserve a cupcake or something.

VET OFFICE & ANIMAL REHABILITATION CENTER

Hey this is super unprofessional and I know I should call butsorry. Do you have any requirements for part-time-still-in-school-work? Like interns? It doesn't even need to be paid work, just like, learning experience. I'm an Animal Sciences student, but I've only got like, one semester under my belt. I figured I'd apply later on but I want to make sure I have everything covered before then, if that makes sense?

-- I'm absolutely going. I must bond with my fellow witches here in town.

TEXTS TO FIONA

TEXTS TO FINN

-- I made you a promise that I would give you a heads up if I ever knew my brother would be here.
-- Well, he's here.

FRIENDS & FAMILY OF IAN & EZRA

As some of you already know, Ezra and I decided that we wanted to get married a couple of weeks ago. We had an initial plan, but some soul-searching had us changing things around -- and by soul-searching, I do mean a conversation with my mom that was, frankly, very convincing. (But when have I ever not listed to my mom, really?) So while I would like to thank everyone that helped with brainstorming the original ideas, this is what we've decided is best for us:

Next Wednesday, November 27th, we would greatly appreciate it if as many of you as are available were to come to City Hall here in town at 3PM to watch us get married. Mom and Henry are coming down already for Thanksgiving, so they will be there. We know that this is last minute and that it's afternoon on a week day, so we understand if you can't all make it, but if you can, do know that you're welcome. And if you can't make it, you're still all invited to dinner with us at The Square that evening at 7PM and also for Thanksgiving dinner on Thursday evening at my place, if you don't already have plans. Most of you already have standing invitations to the latter as it is; if you had any question about it, now you know for sure.

Anyway, I believe that will do it. You are all incredibly important to us, so we wanted to include you as much as we could as we take this step together. Thank you for always being there and making us a possibly unconventional, but sincerely amazing family.

MCRHINEHARTS + DAHLIA + EZRA

Verity and Dahlia, would you be free on an upcoming Saturday to fly a few people to New York and back? I think it would be too many people for your plane, but do you know anyone with something bigger and private? I'm not worried about cost.

On a related note, Miles, are you also free on a Saturday and have you ever considered getting ordained through one of those online things?

Dunhaven, meet Asher Hikaru Perkins. He arrived last night and I've barely taken my eyes off him since. Both he and his mom are doing well and we should be home soon. We'll definitely let visitors know when we're ready for them.

The clinic will be closed through the rest of the month, outside of emergencies. If you need a referral elsewhere in the meantime, I can get you one. Otherwise, I'll see you and your furiends in November.

It is my absolute pleasure to announce that the newly minted Dunhaven Zoo & Rehabilitation Center will be reopening on October 3 to kick off our first annual Halloween at the Zoo season. Each weekend, including Thursdays, in October through November 3, we will be hosting a kid- and family-friendly Halloween party with the animals here at our zoo from 5pm-9pm. There will be lots of local vendors stationed throughout the area with treats for everyone and the zoo itself will be transformed into a festive and charmingly spooky park. Meet princesses and other storybook characters, or swap spooky stories with our friendly ghosts. Costumes are encouraged and kids are not required! All kids at heart are welcome. 🎃💀🎉😊

If trick-or-treating isn't your cup of tea, we'd love to see you during regular admission!

Hi, everyone! Another post so soon? Thanks to Naomi's brilliant idea, I'm going to put together a resource accessible to anyone dealing with the Dreams that essentially just lists who is being dreamed of and any other pertinent details you might think need to be included for others to identify that they're at least sharing dreams about the world even if they don't know the name. For example, it might look like:

Leia Organa-Solo - From Alderaan, daughter of Breha and Bail Organa
Han Solo - Made the Kessel run in less than 12 parsecs, from Corellia

Just leave a note here, anonymously or not, letting me know the name of who you are dreaming about and anything else you want to mention. If you want YOUR name attached to it, as well, for shared dreamers to more easily get in touch with you, let me know. Otherwise, I'll attach your Anon ID so that others can filter you anonymously!

This is totally optional, but I hope you'll consider doing it, at least anonymously!

It's that time of year, y'all. That's right. It's
