Christmas cards?

[amy_o]

I am having the same delima. I kinda got out of it last year cause of DD and we had just finished sending out all the thank yous. I suppose I need to make a decision and soonish....just seems a lota work right now!!!

For the first time, this year I am actually organised! I have all the rellies addresses in my book and last night I started writing out a whole heap and sent off the interstate ones today. (feeling a bit chuffed really!)
I am guilty of buying lots, writing them out and then totally forgetting about the big pile sitting somewhere "safe" when I cleaned out my desk just before jacob was born, I found some from 3 years ago, stamps on and all.....

I just bought 10 from World Vision & 10 from Kids Helpline today, have txt everyone for address' and am slowly writing them out, will post all together next week! This is the first year i've really done it tho! So proud of myself for pulling my finger out!

Yep, I'm thinking of making the effort this year... I have about 5 years of unused/unsent cards to use up! I figure that getting an actual letter/card is so rare for people these days that it will really make them feel Christmassy I say wait until the kids are in bed, pour yourself a nice drink (I'm thinking a Bailey's or two here) put on some Christmassy music, maybe light the vaporiser with a tea-light and start writing! "We wish you a Merry Christmas, we wish you a Merry Christmas...."

Bath your right...we dont send letters or cards as much as we should.

I will start doing them witht he chrissy music going...and as much as i would love a baileys it will just ahve to be milk xx

Make it a nice ice choclolate It's gotta make you feel spesh! Maybe nibble on some shortbread...

DH and I make ours. Its so personalised that the family keep them. For example, this is the last photo we used.

Much like Bath said, its a part of Christmas - its so traditional and its been so quickly phased out with email and FB. We make every effort to keep to the traditions we enjoyed as kids for our kids.

Mine are all written out and addressed and stamped - just waiting on some photos for some cards and then they will all be posted.

I love sending christmas cards - there is something special about recieving cards in the mail
