You can sign it so they know who they are getting it from. Maybe signing it in your screen name seeing how bad i am with real names I may not know who is who.

Or we could sign like:
Shawna
AKA
CanadianBride
I am always trying to keep names straight too so if we added the AKA at the bottom it would help me to figure out who is who in the wedding zoo...lol...ok sorry not zoo, bad choice of words!!

I found my postcard :detective: It was a bit of a challenge. But fun.
I dropped it in the mail this morning.
I am looking forward to getting one. I think it will arrive arround the same time my bills arrive. So it will be a nice treat!
I should keep looking for some nice ones and stock up. The selection wasn't the best. They had no winter scenes.

When i went into shoppers to mail my post card i suddenly realized that i probaly could have found one there. I didn't which sorta made me happy. Otherwise i would have felt like i went all over town and i didn't need to.

I live in a very tourist city. I have a handfull of postcards. I found them a while back at a gas station 10 for $1. I have to say I grew up in a very small city but because itis on the border of Canada alot of people go through there alot. I can even find postcards from there. I haven't lived there in 10 or so yrs so I have a couple from one of the recent times I went home.
Good luck postcard shopping all.

All of you who are worried or sorry about yoru cards going out late, don't worry about it. We never set a time line and we all know that we are busy with other things. Some had hard time finding post cards and thigns like that. We will all get one soon enough and that is the part we all are waiting for. Wondering when and who. Just as long it isn't a month down the road you are all still good.

I wanted to say that I am so sorry I have not sent out my postcard.
I shouldn't have signed on, since my wedding is in a week and I'm so stressed out lately. My job is not going well, and the wedding plans are crazy!
I PROMISE I will make it up to my pal and send a really really cool one from my honeymoon!
Is this okay?
Do you all hate me?

I'm the same way...I have Jason check the mail everyday when we come home from work. It's keeping us up to date on our RSVPs...but no postcard (well, no postcard that I want anyways, I've gotten TONS from vendors...I could wallpaper one wall of the hall in them!)...no worries though!
