The Save the Dates came in the mail late last week. I was soooo excited to see them and get them mailed out (FINALLY!) Well it turns out there was a slip in the cutting machine and they are all cut slightly off-center. That just won't do. So apparently the printer is doing a reprint and we should have them by the end of next week.
In the meantime I have been addressing envelopes. For the longest time I researched envelopes online; I, of course, am a stationary snob. Finally I went into Staples this weekend and found 100 envelopes on sale for $5.00. Yeah...frugal beats out snob any day of the week. Thus far I have addressed 83 envelopes. I ordered a self-inking return address stamp but am not so fond of it; therefore, I am also hand printing my address on the back of all the envelopes. In the end, we should probably have around 100 envelopes going out - 2 internationally.
Weddings are a LOT of work. Maybe I should just stick to the complaints of one of the little girls in my class. "Miss Minsterman, all the boys - they act like I'm the only girl in the whole class. They all want to be my friend. They push to stand next to me. I'm like - geez, there are other girls you know - I'm not the only one." Ah... the wisdom of a five-year-old beauty queen. :)
