Christmas Cards

I just love everything about them! The journaling is tiny so here it is:

I absolutely love Christmas cards! I’ve been making mine since 2003 but have been sending them every year since I was in high school. One thing I’m kind of glad I did was back when Andrew had his first Christmas in 1983 I started writing a holiday Christmas letter to include with my cards as well as including a family picture. I have kept up with the letter and the photos every year since then. I have often thought that when my kids get married I will give their spouse-to-be an album with all of the letters and photos to kind of give them a small history of our family. I know lots of people hate receiving these kinds of letters but I’ve had lots of great feedback from people over the years who tell me they love hearing all about what is going on with our family through our holiday letters. I’m also happy to report that this year I will have my cards out by Dec. 10th which is the US Postal Service deadline for cards. So far I’ve only received about 3 cards but love going home each night from the office and seeing if there are two or three in the mailbox.
