Invitations, RSVPs, & Food

Happy Thursday everyone.

Hope this weeks blog finds you in good health and happiness. As I'm sitting here writing this tonight, I can hear birds chirping and see the sun is still out-- its beautiful weather out here in Rochester. Finally Spring has decided to stay a while!!

Anyways... so, all of the invitations have been officially mailed out -- and should be coming to you shortly. Please be sure to send back your $ and your RSVP card NO LATER THAN June 28th. We need an exact count as there are only so many people that the venue can hold. Which is why the count is so important. However, I noticed upon finishing up the mail that the RSVP cards were not designed with a spot to reply NO as in your not coming... heh. Super sorry about that, I didn't catch it as they were designed. So, if by chance you're not coming please indicate somehow on the RSVP and be sure to send it back to me. You can just write 0 in the spot that asks for the number of people coming, and you can just write on there "we are not attending" or etc... That will help me out so much.

Food: Please let me know as soon as you decide what you and your family would like to bring for the dish to pass. I'm trying to keep track of everything so we dont end up with multiples.

**Just to Clarify a few things on Food: **

Your item DOES NOT have to feed EVERYONE.. if we find out we're having 200 people that does not mean you need to bake a casserole or dessert etc to feed 200 people. Just bring a dish of a size that you would like to pass along and it will be just fine. If you are traveling from out of town, feel free to pick something up at the local grocery store or deli that is fine with me.

If you are bringing items such as serving utencils, dishes etc... Please be sure to label it somehow so at the end of the night when we are doing clean up ... that will help to know who it needs to go back to. Also, whatever is left in your dish you can just take home- that way we dont have to pack up tons of food --- unless people want to bring things home and of course you're more than welcome to make a plate to take with you.

What else... hmmm... The reunion STARTS at 4pm, you are more than welcome to come anywhere between 3-4pm. And it ends at 10pm. Should be a lot of fun, I am really interested to learn the final count once all the RSVP cards come back.

Aside from all that.. I will be taking lots of pictures that day-- I have some family photo shots I'm hoping to get. Thats' what happens when I have too much time on my hands, and browse pinterest and find the photography inspirations they have on there. But there has been quite a few of them. :)

Can't wait to see you all in a few months!!!
Lots of love,
Alyssa
