Christmas Cards!!!

I LOVE Christmas cards. My family always sent them out when I was a kid (in fact, I remember my dad bought a huge case of one particular card that was very meaningful and using it for several years!), and I carried on the tradition as an adult. Even before I was married, I enjoyed sending out cards every year to my friends and relatives. Now that I have a family of my own, I have even more reason to do so! Of course now it has to have a family photo =) It's always a challenge to get the four of us looking good in one picture, but this year that wasn't a problem thanks to Mae Burke Photography! In years past I've just tried to be creative with combining individual pix of all of us, or two at a time.

After I send mine out every year, I anticipate the cards that come in our mailbox! I proudly display them on my mantle (before I had a fireplace, they went on the fridge or taped to a door, etc...) and then after Christmas is over I make something really fun with them to enjoy for years to come. I'll post another time about how to do that craft. =)

Tinyprints.com has a lot of really great designs this year and I plan on ordering mine through them. Here are a few I like:
