Invitations

So you may remember my post about amate, in which I confessed that we had spent more than we intended and created extra work for ourselves.

That consequence has arrived. Tuesday we went to Staples and found an invitation kit for about $35. This doesn't sound too bad until I remind you that we already spent $50 on the paintings.

Now not only do we need to print up the invitations and RSVP cards, we also have to glue in the paintings and tie an accent ribbon. And then of course all of the other things that normally come along with sending invitations.

Fortunately, Rebecca's sister has volunteered to help with assembly, an offer for which we will ever be grateful. We're hoping to get a good start on that this weekend.

I'm hopeful, though, that the invites will be pretty enough to justify all of this work.
