Whew!

Sooo.....after months of finding the right paper, 8 etsy orders of buttons, 3 reprints on the craft paper - only to find out we needed a "foil stamp" method from another printing company, 1 reprint on the main invitation due to a wrong pantone color, about 10 address mix ups, tracking down the only post office in kansas city that carried that brand new monarch butterfly 64 cent stamp so I wouldn't have to have a cartoon dolphin stamp, figuring out how to close the envelopes, and finally, tying them all together with twine - a job that took eight hours to complete 150 invitations, etc. etc. etc......THE WEDDING INVITATIONS ARE IN THE MAIL!! :)

I did want to write this post to warn you all, however, that the RSVP cards are terrible. The ink is the wrong color, the font size is wrong, and the size of the RSVP card itself is wrong. It was just too late to fix, after they'd already been stamped. So please, just fill it out and get rid of it so you don't have to look at it!! :) Hahaha...I'm sure that was unnecessary, but you know me, I am a tad particular.

So yay! I can't wait to start getting them back and get this par-tay started!

working woman

all alone in the office today....
"what?" ..... you ask...."molly has a JOB?"
yes sireee...Molly McCue, law clerk extraordinaire at the Law Offices of Angela L. Williams, an immigration attorney in KC, MO.
se habla espanol. (i can't figure out how to put the tilde above the n)

anyways, Angie, my boss is at court all day today and I'm holding down the fort. trying to remember to take deep breaths and remember that I don't have to talk as fast in Spanish back to them as they are speaking to me. I am struggling a bit, but with my trusty spanish dictionary that I've had since 7th grade, I'm making it through the day.

I just hope the whole Hispanic community isn't discussing the new moron answering phones down at the help me stay in the country office.

On another note : Who's ready to get LOST tonight??!!

almost a 3L!!!

in four and a half hours i will be done with my second year of law school. hallelujah. my take-away from the semester:

products liability - if you're hurt by a product, sue. you might win.

evidence - if it sounds funny, object. if it's hearsay, there's probably an exception.

gender and justice - feminism should not be a dirty word. this country has an astonishing domestic violence problem.

estates and trusts - make a will. if you die intestate, the state will probably dispose of your property in a way you wouldn't have opted for.

appellate advocacy - good god. uhhhh --- this is probably another blog post.

another invitation....

speaking of paper products,
here is the proof of the the cute invitations i got for my roommate courtney's bachelorette party!! i'm so excited, we're having a pool party during the day, and one of her best friend's brothers and his friends are flying in from colorado to be our cabana boys :)

it's a die cut invitation, so it will be the shape of the drinks (for some reason in the picture below it looks like it has a white background - nope)
i still have to attach a little piece of cute paper with her lingerie sizes with some ribbon, but i'm pretty excited!! and i'm pretty stoked about my poetry skills.

as many of you know, my affinity for all things paper runs deep.
therefore, designing wedding invitations has been quite an ordeal.
however, it is all coming together beautifully, and when you open yours up, (hopefully sometime between May 19 and 25...hopefully) you will find a little something of this sort:

i'm not telling you any where, what, or hows....but a button may be incorporated. and it's gonna be cute.

ok who cares. i'm just really excited. 

on another note: wondering where this sudden burst of blog activity is coming from? let's just say it's not a coincidence finals are coming up these next two weeks. woopsies.

YESS!!

today I registered for these:

so that one day, i am able to make this:

this was the cake at courtney and davie's couples shower this past weekend. it was so freaking cute, i had googly eyes for it all night. the hostess's sister in law just whipped it up. WHAT??!!! who can do that??!

hopefully me. my new goal is to one day create this exact cake. sorry for spoiling the surprise, future friend or family member who i make this in honor of!!  xoxo. molly.
