all about the wedding

So, I am using this as a handy tool to communicate with you ladies about the wedding details. Except that Kasia is really the only one in the wedding party that reads this blog on a regular basis, so I may have to attempt a new strategy.

But, the date is drawing near, and so are some decision deadlines. Kasia and Alexis (Erika, you are welcome to join in on any and all of this if you will be around), I am getting manicure/pedicure done with Colette Tuesday afternoon before the rehearsal dinner (K*, it will probably depend on your flight arrival time), would you like to join us? I am also going to get my hair done, shall I make appointments for any of you at teh time of mine? And, my friend Isabelle, who does organic and natural makeup for commercials is offering to do make-up for $50/person at my folks place (where we will be getting ready)....do any of you want to jump in on that, or should we just do it ourselves?

Let me know soon and I will begin making appointments.

Cant wait to see you all! I found a friend who has an air matress, so that is one more place for bodies. We should all be comfortable while staying chez moi!

A bien tot mes amis! *mwah*

ladies ladies ladies...
yes Kasia's new job provided her with access to the internet
and so yes, she posts way more than she probably should.
I just wanted to say, that despite the less than savory reviews,
I still enjoyed X-Men 3-The Last Stand.

The Link

Kasia here are a few links to that city I was telling you about in Maryland, it is called Greenbelt. This will tell you a little more about it, and you can find names of residencies and then look for more information that way. It is pretty cool, many cooperatives and green living encouraged.

I hope it is a help to you, or that when you are ready to look for your new place, you will have a good time of it and the cost of living there won't blow your mind too much.

Well guys, the last of the invites are out now, so I await RSVPs so I can make sure that all of you are fed and happy!

I can't wait to have you all in my home! We have a very cool place on the Mississippi River. You can go out back and enjoy the view, stick your feet in the water and feed the ducks. You can have a bonfire out back, and walk to many chic bars and restaurants. We have a couple bikes, but Aaron is pretty tall, and I only have one, so you will have to see if that is an option. Otherwise, it is all pretty walkable. Our apartment is fairly large, so you won't feel cramped in the least, and I am working on the bed situation. Oh, and by the way, I can't remember if anyone is allergic, but we have a very large black cat, and a dog (although he will be with my folks), so be prepared!

I really can't wait to see you all. Thank you for taking your time and spending your hard earned cash on coming out for this reunion of sorts. We shall all have much regaling!!!


LOVE!!

post post create new post

okay so, i am SO HAPPY!!!! you will all be here to defile with me and celebrate! I want to offer my house for you to stay in. I know that Kasia and Erika will be staying with Erika's boyfriend's parents not too far away. But, Alexis, Leah, Andi and Emily, please stay at my place!
Aaron and I are going to be in a cottage Wednesday and Thursday night, so our place is open. We will be there Friday and Saturday nights, but then, we are off to Japan.
So, there are enough spaces for Four people total to have beds. Then there are two couches and plenty of floor space. If that sounds good to you, let me know and I can ask around if anyone has any space beds or air mattresses we can bring in.
Otherwise, we are in NE Minneapolis. I would recommend staying in a hotel in the "Dinkytown" area or even downtown. There aren't any hotels in the immediate area, but we are close to everyhting and easily busable from downtown or pick-upable. I would actually say that downtown is easier.
There are a few bed and breakfsts in the area as well.
http://www.leblanchouse.com/ is one of them, and the other is http://www.nicolletislandinn.com/ and another is, http://www.waleshouse.com/ and here is a direcotry of them, http://www.minneapolislodging.worldweb.com/BedBreakfasts/ or just search for bed and breakfasts in minneapolis and look for places in NE or SE minneapolis (as indicated by the street address).

Hope this is helpful, I think the B&Bs are more affordable if you can arrange to share it together. Otherwise, if you have a good deal on a hotel with your airfare, just do that.

Call if you need anything!!!!
and I have the invites stamped and ready to go out the door, I just need your address Leah, Emily and Andi.
Can you email them to me???
Or, well, I can pick up that phone and call you too!

Okay, I love you all and can't wait to see you. This is going to be so Wonderful!!! I can't wait for you to meet Aaron, and Mo and Sumo Chan(our Cat).

Keep the posts coming, it is so exciting!

bye!

Reunion!

Well, well. It seems as though we are all going to be present for Noelle's defiling and celebration! I am planning on being there from Thursday afternoon to Sunday afternoon. I have yet to purchase my tickets, but I will most definitely be there.

One question, Noey: Where are events being held? I want to book a hotel at the same time I purchase my flight, and it would be awesome if it could be in the same building or very near where fun wedding stuff is taking place. So if it is in a hotel, let me know where I should book.

I am greatly looking forward to seeing all of you ladies!

Soon enough, compadres...

tickets I have purchased

Hello. Emily is now officially able to come, but only for the weekend from 23-25th, I am sorry I wont be there for the actual event, Noelle, but I am so glad to be able to be there for your defilement of course, and to see all of you and celebrate love and friends and life the way it should be: all together and having great times. I will be getting in on friday at 3:00pm. and leaving around 3:30 on sunday. I am so excited!!! I was thinking I wasn't going to be able to afford it, but now all is well and I will be there!!

yehaw, Emily

So long it has been since I have written to my friends! The only internet I get is at the library and that's only for an hour a day! But to sum it up, life's good. It's getting nice and sunny and on a consistant basis here in Seattle, and I'm loving being outside. My parents bought me a bike for the b-day and I have been riding it to work and to do errands and it's so fun. Reminds me of baby-bike em.
I'm coming to Minnnesota on tuesday for the whole shabang! It's going to be a Noelle marathon and we are so getting her defiled on Friday. I'm in Tacoma right now, and I'm definately feeling those old fimaliar vibes from collage. It's actually graduation day today and I drove past our old house and they were having a grad party and I saw through the window that that old oragne chair still lives there! Brought back the memories But it's all good: Kasia is moving for a new job! Noelle is getting married! There are so many wonderful things happening as we move on in life! I can't wait to celebrate all those things in Minn soon.

Tacytown

Hey girls,

guess where I went out last night, The Swiss! Phil and I drove down to the pungent paradise that is Tacoma and saw Dashel's band 'the Cartesians' play a Katrina benefit concert. It was strange but fun to be back at this old haunt, and of course fun to see old friends. Erica Nelson was there trailing her boy who I can still only think of as a freshman, and I saw that one dark haired bitch girl from our film class (do you remember her?) and I saw Ginger, and other youngins who I couldn't remember names of. Lauren O and Adam went back with us to Seattle to hang out, they are very cool people indeed. Lauren is thinking she will move back to Texas after school and Adam still has bright red hair chunk tails all over his head. I helped Lauren learn to vaporize; it was good times. Also, Lisa told me that Eric has moved to LA with Ben, they are now getting rich making and staring in commercials for Fox, I saw one air during American Idol. CRAZY! Well, those are some TAC town updates for the curious. I beleive I will be purchasing tickets to come east on the 23rd, looking forward to celebratin love and seeing all of you! love, Emily

i'm coming! (i'm = andrea)

just bought my plane ticket to the wedding. i get in late thursday night and i'm staying through late afternoon sunday. wish i could be there for the wedding, but have to feign responsibility at work. at least i'll be around for defilement fun. SO EXCITED TO SEE Y'ALL LOVELY LADIES I COULD PEE MY PANTS but i'm gonna run to the bathroom instead....how embarrassing to urinate myself at work!!
lovelovelovelovelovelovelovelovelovelove...you get the point:)

OATMEAL COOKIE CHUNK!!!
