Family Politics

CB and I sent out our save the date postcards a few weeks back. I figured a few people might miss the postcard and mistake it as advertisement, which is essentially what we're doing. We're advertising our date! Even the mail man knows and the people at the post office knows.

I have to admit, I was a little lazy when it came to calling up my aunt and uncle to get their address. Since they live close by, I figured it would be nice to take them out for dinner and introduce them to CB. (correction.. introduce CB TO them) My laziness continued and I received that scolding phone call sooner than expected. "Headdump! why didn't you send a postcard to aunty? Everyone was on Skype yesterday and all the other aunties got it but her!" "That is very disrespectful, I say Headdump is a goodgirl, I don't know why she forget, why did you forget? and why did you make it into a postcard? some aunties thought it was advertisement, and there's no Chinese on there! They don't understand it, it looks like a Christmas card"

sheesh, I was just trying to find an affordable way to make an announcement, something more than an email.
