Christmas Cards

One of my favorite things this time of year is sending and receiving Christmas cards. I just love Christmas cards!!! I love the ability to use "snail mail" to send greetings to all the many special people in our lives. This year Brian and I sent out around 150 Christmas cards. I love knowing that so many people have touched our lives, loved us, prayed for us, and at Christmas we can bless them in return with a small token of a Christmas card.
Brian had gotten the mail when he got home from work at 6:30 am this morning, so when I woke up there was a pile of about 8 cards that he had opened and left for me on top of my computer. As I looked through each one I smiled and said a prayer for each sender as I also reflected on what that person or family meant to Brian and I.

I LOVE CHRISTMAS CARDS!!! Although email, blogs, and the Internet take up most of our communication skills each year, I am thankful that I still have "snail mail" to send and receive cards each December.

Now if only I could get those wedding thank you notes finished too... :)

I totally agree with you! I love sending and receiving Christmas cards also. I just sent out about 80 cards from us and Keith doesn't really see the need. He thinks its just as fine to send out an "e-card" to everyone in his email address book. I don't think that is very personal, but he says that sending out similar cards with similar sayings to people isn't personal either. This is one of those things that we are just going to have to "agree to disagree" about! :-)
