Hear Ye! Hear Ye!

Much, much earlier than they are supposed to be...
The plan was intricate to say the least. It was a staggered process. We have approximately 80% of our guests coming from out of town. 80% of that 80% are coming from Virginia (all over Virginia) and are my family. The plan was to send out their save the dates in October, since they have less out of town plans to make than Mr. Glen Echo's family, who are all basically coming from Atlanta. The first round was supposed to go out August 1.
But, we have been engaged for 10 months now...
We will be engaged for a total of 18 months...
I wanted to send our save the dates...
So, they went out and I am happy. We have 8 months left and I could not wait any longer (have I ever mentioned I am totally impatient). I now have no idea why we were waiting to send them out (I think it was one of Mr. Glen Echo's ideas).
So, here they are, my cute little save the dates. I made four different versions, using different pictures of us as kids that sort of matched in age.
(Disclaimer...I am NOT a photographer and I have not mastered the craft of taking "blog" friendly pictures of my crafts...I promise the next time I post an image of something that I have made, I will set it up and make it look nice...no coupons in the background next time...)



Mr. Glen Echo showing those magnets who's the boss!
We love Save the Dates!
