Two PercentersThe picture to the left is a screen capture I took from Yahoo!’s College Pick’Em Pick Distribution chart for Week 8. So I guess this is what the Texas A&M folk are always talking about when they call people “2%-ers.”

Rehearsal Invite

Before Katie and I went to 10+ weddings over the last year and a half I had no idea that there was a rehearsal dinner the night before the wedding after the rehearsal at the . Also, apparently the parents of the groom are supposed to put this on (all things I learned way before my own wedding planning but, still). Since both Katie and I graduated from Texas and the rehearsal dinner is on campus then my mom thought it would be a cool idea to have the invites look like . I agreed and here is the proof that the printers sent me today.
