RSVPs with character...

When you are expecting RSVPs, it makes the daily trip to the mailbox so fun. The anticipation of those little cards hidden between the constant reminders of life... bills, junk mail, etc. is priceless. Our wedding RSVPs were mailed to Brad's house and I made him promise that he wouldn't open any of them without me so we can share the news together. So, on the evenings we were together, we would open them together and on nights that we couldn't see each other, he would wait until our nightly phone call and open them while we talked. 

We received a few RSVPs that are worth sharing because they had funny comments or other things on them... 

You may not have noticed, but on the back of your RSVP card was a number. This would help us know who the card belonged to, in case people forgot to write their names on their cards (it happens). When we addressed the invitations, we drafted the help of my friend Sally. So, of course, she knew the secret and decided to test us with her RSVP.

I love the random stick figure by James.

Kara's additions to this card cracked us up. I love that she clarified that she and Mike (her husband) are the adults and that the child is none other than "Dylan cuteness- ring bearer extraordinaire!". And her commentary about those that are declining is classic.

My longtime friends Kathleen and Dennis in Dallas... they have to miss the wedding because NASCAR is in Ft Worth that weekend. So far the most original reason for not making the wedding. We will miss you guys!

A caption really isn't needed on this one except the note that "Tim & Marge" are my PARENTS.

And this one takes first place... it was hand delivered by one of Brad's oldest friends, Braden. He was afraid it wouldn't make it through the mail.
