I haven't sent out Christmas cards in three or four years. Back then, I sent out such a cute card that I was certain I could never top it. So, why even try, right?
Last year my great-aunt told my mom she wasn't getting me a Christmas gift anymore because I took her off my Christmas card list. My mom explained that I took everyone off my list and hadn't sent out cards in ages. I had no idea my laziness was causing a riff in the family.
So, I've decided to send out cards again this year. No, not only to spare my aunt's feelings... but just because it has been a while and it seems fun again. I kind of got back in the mood after perusing so many websites looking for invitations for my grandparents' 60th anniversary party a few months ago.
Now comes the hard part... deciding which cards to send out. I've gotten hooked on Shutterfly and have already ordered a few Christmas gifts from them, so I've narrowed it down to their site. But then there are still tons of cool cards. What's a girl to do?
I really like the idea of this one:
I could share some of the highlights of our year... without doing the "Christmas letter". Plus, you know I love lists.
Or there's this one:
It's a more "winter" color scheme than traditional "Christmas"... which I like. Plus, there's enough room for pictures that all our fur children could have their own area. Or about a million more I like. It's just so hard to pick.
~What about you? Where do you land on the Christmas cards?~
