So as I sit here to blog tonight, I orginially had a different blog in mind... But then I was thinking about it and something else popped into my head.
I cannot express enough the importance of coming to this reunion- unless of couse something comes up and you absolutely cannot make it. But, thinking of the fact that there hasnt been a Drakulic Reunion since 1970... Thats SUCH a long time ago... so much time in between that there should have been one and there wasnt. There aren't that many people left in my Grandma's generation anymore. And I know it would mean the world to them to see everyone together again. We all aren't getting any younger, and unfortunately as time goes by we see our extended family less and less -- usually at holidays, weddings, and sadly funerals. I'd like to see as many people at this as possible. Let's make it memorable!! Plus, there's so many of you I want to meet!
**Just a reminder** within the next few weeks the invitations will be going out- please kindly send back the RSVP card. As, this is a situation where we need an accurate count for many aspects of this event. Thank you so much!!! Also, please be sure to include your families fee for the reunion with the RSVP card. ($5/per person)
Have a great rest of your weekend.
Much Love,
Alyssa

God Bless Boston
Still in shock over the events of today that were covered on the news of the horrific violent acts at the Boston marathon today. May God Bless all of those families and loved ones who were there today. As well as those who had a loved one there. I hope they are able to find who did this to all these innocent people.
May those who lost their lives rest in peace.

Ramblings of the Serbian Sweetheart
Wow--- April 14, already, huh?
....This year is just going by SO fast.... I feel like each month goes by faster than the one before. I personally, am getting excited for the Reunion as it gets closer and closer. I also am feeling much more accomplished with the "To-Do" list and where it stands as of right now. I currently have almost all my photo books completed. I also have all the table center pieces purchased. Invitations are ready to be mailed. (They will be going out next month) and the Dish-to-Pass list has been organized, I just need to know what everyone is bringing as its gets closer.
I am attempting to put my crafty mind to work to see if I can find a way to make a cute "favor" to hand out to everyone. I am bouncing some ideas around in my head, we will see what I come up with. We have done magnets and such on my Mom's side of the family before. I just have not decided what I want to do yet.
If any of you have any ideas, please be sure to let me know!! And, as always, please join our Facebook group--- Drakulic Reunion.
Love.

Congrats are in order...
I just wanted to take a minute to extend my love to some members of the family who have achieved some exciting milestones in their life recently. My cousin Laura Drakulic just got engaged to her boyfriend Jim Thompson, congrats to you both and I wish you many many years of happiness and love together.
Also, another cousin Jaclyn Cheripka and her fiance Chad Duriez will be getting married in one week, so exciting. I also wish you both many years of happiness and love.

Spring Ahead
I don't know about you but it's finally starting to look like spring in Rochester.. We're just hoping it stays! Spring weather has me thinking happy thoughts of lots of outside fun (Amusement Parks, taking my kids outside at my preschool and playing etc..) it also has me thinking about the reunion as its becoming closer and closer.
I hope all is well with all of you and that you will all be able to join us on that very special day. I am still busily working on the small details that I need to have finished before the big day.
Photos are still welcome for anyone who has some that they'd like to be included.
Also ideas are welcome if anyone had anything in mind that they wanted to run by me for activities and such please let me know!
I'll talk to you all soon, I'm going to try to stay on top of these blogs. We were out of town for a few days so I hadn't had a chance over the Holiday weekend.
Much love,
Alyssa
