So when guests arrived at her party I handed them paper, a pen and the envelope. Still I never even got close to 60 and while she liked what she got I think it was an epic fail and made me more disappointed in my family and her friends then anything.SKLnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6299578764487881408.post-82799584318306688472012-10-05T18:25:13.478-06:002012-10-05T18:25:13.478-06:00Thanks for the info!Thanks for the info!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17685370691490070422noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6299578764487881408.post-30896222266178330672012-10-04T08:17:29.868-06:002012-10-04T08:17:29.868-06:00My aunts did this for my grandfather's 80th bi...My aunts did this for my grandfather's 80th birthday, then made a scrapbook.

I had to strong-arm some of my family members (trying to strong-arm and guilt your extended family and great-aunts & uncles can get a little awkward). I had to write three notes myself and begged most people to write "multiple" notes, but i actually did it! it was worth it but not remotely what I thought the process might be.

I sent out invitations assigning each person a year, asking them to bring a used or new book, VHS, 8-track, DVD, record, cassette, etc. from their assigned year. I realized that sending the paper invite made all the difference. Facebook is easily ignored. A paper invitation means you're serious. We had around 60 of the 80 or so people invited come to the party and most of the rest (out-of-towners) mailed gifts from their year before the party. The little bit of extra effort sending a physical invitation can make all the difference in response.Ashleyhttp://ashleyishappy.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6299578764487881408.post-38162611539457879622012-10-01T22:37:11.750-06:002012-10-01T22:37:11.750-06:00Awe!
