I came home tonight and found a package with our first wedding presents sitting outside my apartment door. Some of my Minnesota family put together a box of shower gifts, since we weren’t able to have a shower for me up there. Very fun! Not like Matt & I are in this for the presents [...]

I thought i’d post an answer here to a question I’ve seen a couple times: “How do I RSVP for the wedding?” Easy — just send an email to the address on the invitation — you do that through your normal email account like you were emailing anybody else. That will send an email to [...]
I think we have a source on baby food jars — my Aunt Colleen has a friend who has them. If someone else locally has some, we might be able to use them, too (I’m not sure how many we need yet). And, I think we also have a source on the coffee pots! Thanks [...]
Just a quick note: I’ve recently rediscovered SideStep. I find it frequently quotes better prices for airfare than does Expedia. If you’re going to be flying to Austin for the wedding, you might give it a look – you could save a few bucks.
Most of the invitations are now in the mail. A few more will be mailed in the next couple of days, so they should be reaching you soon. Becky
#1 – Baby food jars — know anybody who could save their leftover jars up through October 7th? We’re thinking about luminary candle bags to light the pathways — to get them to stand up against wind/etc, adding some small jars inside the bags would be good. The toddler-size food jars would work better than [...]
I’m swamped at work planning our annual Leadership Retreat, but figured I’d take a few more minutes on the computer today to post an update — it isn’t work so this is actually kinda fun! INVITATIONS:Will be ready soon! If you’ve moved recently, please pass along your updated address (email me at becky {dot} white [...]
I signed and delivered the contract to our cake baker today. The samples from this shop were good — actually tasted like cake should! (unlike some wedding cakes I’ve had in the past…) We’re having a bride’s cake and a separate groom’s cake. Both will be fun and unique, but completely different from each other. [...]
So, there’s another Becky White out there somewhere who has a daughter who’s getting married in about 5 weeks. This wedding group sent invitations over the weekend — with RSVPs to go to this other Becky White’s email account. But… the font that they used makes her address look like my largely-unused hotmail address, so [...]
If you ever build a new house, or just put up new walls in the old one, please don’t just slap wallpaper directly on the drywall. Please, prime the walls. And use sizing of some kind under the wallpaper. Also, if you ever decide to put in new wallpaper, don’t just slap it directly over [...]
Etcetera. Whatever.
