Dear Mom. Dad & All:-
Eve will be well supplied with clothes for
the wedding. Her dress will be white satin, slipper satin I guess
they call it. She will wear an orange blossom headdress and a long
veil. I've got her a gold locket for a wedding present. Dorothy
will wear a blue taffeta dress pleated down the front from neckline to
hem. She will have a small blue head veil and long gloves to match,
a gold headdress and gold shoes. I won't see Eve's dress until the
wedding, of course. She has a dark gray suit with a pin stripe, the
stripes being about an inch apart. She has a sort of Monks skull
cap hat of gray to match her suit, with a little veil on it. She
also got a royal blue dressing gown, something like Pete's, and a pair
of blue bedroom slippers. Blue is her favorite color. She'll wear a white lace blouse with her
suit. Well I guess that's about all I can tell you along that line
now. I'll send you our wedding pictures as soon as we get them.
I almost forgot, Eve's bouquet will be pink carnations and Dorothy's, Tea
Roses!
Love, Thatch.
