My full intentions went awry this year, yet again. But I may have to break down and do Christmas in July cards, hehehe.

My sister-in-law sends out the BEST Christmas letters. I actually save them 'cause they're so entertaining :). It's a tough act to follow, so for now I'll stick to cards :).

Funny how Life interferes like that, hm? hehehe :) Yay for getting them out!

Ah, you've got until the Ephiphany, right? :)

I really like getting photo cards, except when it's just a pic of the kids (or WORST thing ever, of their DOG). I love family photos :-D.

Will do :).

We do cards, since kids a photo card but have as yet not managed a letter ~ maybe next year.

We send picture cards so everyone can see how the children have grown in a year, and I try to make up a short note or poem to be printed on the back. This year I had to add a new address for everyone to update it, so I ordered the cards EARLY--like mid-November. Then Life interfered with my rosy-hued plans and I'm finishing the cards...today. Luckily everyone's cards are still being forwarded from the old address!

I'm still thinking about it - Made a list, but am still debating internally whether to write a letter to each person, or just send a card signed!

I'll probably wait until there's only 2 days left for Christmas, and then do it... ;)

My family always did Christmas letters + cards. I started buying Christmas cards in January when I was in college so I could do the same. I would send out like 10, then have 40 or so leftover. And I couldn't throw them away, but I couldn't send them the next year, because everyone should be getting the same card, right? Anyway, I think I still have a box or two that I haven't been able to pass on. I don't know that we did anything last year. We're doing a photo card this year for the first time ever, though!

I was talking to my mama on the phone yesterday and she mentioned that she talked to YOUR mama recently and then I realized that I didn't have your address and didn't send YOU a Christmas card!!! Would you mind emailing it to me? There is still time! :) hehe
