repondez s'il vous plait

How fantastic that in 2008 the way that we say "Let us know if you're coming!" is a French acronym! If anyone loves acronyms in this world, it's the French. I just think it's wonderful and twisted that we are so used to those 4 little letters that we never bothered to come up with our own system. I guess the literal translation of rsvp is "please respond" and "rp" does not have the sound of importance that "rsvp" has.

All of the above aside, it's really fun to get rsvp e-mails! We get to hear from people that we normally don't get e-mails from. It's also exciting to hear who is going to be able to make it. So, if you haven't already, send us an rsvp e-mail :)

We're getting married in 2 months and other news

As of two days ago, it is only two months until our wedding. Holy buckets! Plans are going well, and it's starting to feel a little more real every day. I have a dress, shoes, veil, jewelry, and the whole nine yards. I have to say though, it still feels a bit like playing a very elaborate game of dress-up. 95% of the details are all in place and a trip back to South Dakota is planned to get the rest of it figured out.

Invitations have gone out and rsvp responses are starting to come in. Look for your invite in a mailbox near you if you haven't received it yet. Don't forget to rsvp!! Pete and I want to know if you're going to be there!

The Super Deluxe Inn of De Smet called today to update me on rooms. They said they would hold them until October 8th, although it is during hunting season, so I'm sure they're anxious to either fill or release rooms. So if you need accommodations, please call them and reserve a room at your earliest convenience. I'm sure they'd appreciate it :) Information is in the links on the right side of this page.
