Writing about all the big & little things

Christmas Card?

Well, I spent way too much time yesterday trying to decide and look through pictures of the kids and Tim and I to create a Christmas card.  I made a few mock ups of cards then I would try something else, then get frustrated and give up for a while.  I really WANT to send a Christmas card, but I constantly struggle with the cost of printing them and then mailing them… and then I feel guilty for not writing more about what’s been going on in our lives… and this really is the year to send a card to give out our new address… and then I can never decide which pictures are my favorite… and should I only include pictures of the kids or do people really care what Tim and I look like anymore?… Haha!  You can see why I gave up.  I decided that for now, I’m going to try and write a Christmas letter and include pictures in that instead of a photo card.  At least for this year.  Now of course, comes the work of actually WRITING the letter…

In other news… it’s cold.  Very very cold.  I wish it wasn’t so cold, because then the kids could actually go outside and enjoy the beautiful snow.  But when the high doesn’t go above zero, that a bit cold for me to feel comfortable sending them out.  Especially when Josiah is determined to not wear a hat…

And for fun, how about another random picture?

Yes?

Well, alrighty then!

    so cute! And to help in your dilemma yes everyone still wants to see pictures of you and Tim! 🙂

    You got some good ones from Thanksgiving!
    Sam’s Club and Walmart have consistently cheaper prices, but Snapfish runs some good specials this time of year. That’s where I got mine.

    We sent our one picture card with us in it last year, so that should be good for another 10 years or so! I’m still not sure what I’m doing. I think I’m going to use up my points and money in my Send Out Cards subscription, so they won’t be personally signed, but who really cares? I’ll include a little note of what we are up to, too. Then I’ll be able to cancel that rather expensive subscription once I’m done at the Center.
