Invitations

I am getting a bit excited. We are almost finish with the invitations. The only problem I am encountering is writing out the addresses. My handwriting sucks. Just ask any of my friends. Vin's handwriting is too small that you need a magnifying glass to read it. So I had enlisted my dad to write some of the addresses out. Unfortunately, he is now in the Philippines for a couple more weeks and there are still some addresses to fill out. So, for those unfortunate few that I had written, please excuse my handwriting. I tried to make it all beautifully scripted and printed but handwriting is not my forte. I even tried to copy my dad's handwriting but I kept falling into my style of writing. It is became a very frustrating process, believe me. Many envelopes became a victim of my rage and frustration.

I would think we would have all the addresses by now but there has been a lot of movement in the last couple of months. It appears a lot of friends and family are moving. Either into another apartment, another house, or possibly another state.So, there have been many envelopes that had to be rewritten due to those changes. Thank God, we got extra envelopes.

Yet, I am very proud of our invites and I can't believe that two months are left. All these expectations are building up. I afraid that the wedding might be anti-climatic or that they will be nothing to look forward to after this. I guess I can blame all these raised expectations on this culture of ours. This society has taught us women to expect so much out of one day. I got to remember that this one day is just one day of many wonderful days and celebrations.
