Dear Datu,

Your pictures of our wedding are phenomenal. We have really enjoyed going through the box of photos, and finally yesterday I had a chance to pick out 40 additional pictures from the CD-rom.

My mom and I don't feel comfortable about mailing the big green box of pictures across the Atlantic. I am seeing my family in person at the end of September, but then probably not again until February. Therefore, by the end of the month I will choose all the pictures for my album, and bring the preview box back to my mom so she can go through them.

THANK YOU for the beautiful pictures.

Best regards,

Laura and Richard -- (Lake Bluff, wedding and reception at Shoreacres, August 2001)
