My Christmas Wish 2007

In recent years, my parents health (esp. my mother) has deteriorated. I recently moved 600 miles closer just to be with them. I fear this may be the last Christmas for one or both of them. They really LOVE Christmas cards! As I was rummaging through the attic to retrieve their Christmas decorations, I found Christmas cards they had received from 30 years ago. They throw NONE away. I was trying to think of something really special to do for them for Christmas and I came up with this idea. If you have the Christmas spirit, and want to do something nice for someone (who doesn’t?) – please take the time to send my parent’s a Christmas card. Christmas was always a magical time of year for our family and I truly want to make this magical for the both of them. Please! God Bless You and I hope you and your family have a wonderful Christmas.

Address is as follows:
Donald and Betty Coleman
704 Seattle Drive
Lexington Kentucky 40503

Please copy and paste this into an email and forward this to all your family/friends/coworkers.
God Bless!!!

I always design ours every year in photoshop. We are going to be taking our annual picture next weekend so I can get them started

I would love to exchange cards. I’ll send my snail mail address to you via e-mail. I started doing a family newsletter last year to include with the cards we send out. This year, I will be doing a photo card + the newsletter. Our family card/newsletter is a little different because I live alone, but my family is really close, so it’s me, mom, my brother & my nephew + the dog (can’t leave her out). I lost my dad last year, but I always incorporate him in some way, as well.

Thanks for doing this!

What a great idea! It would be so nice to receive cards from people from around the world! I used to send so many cards out a Christmas time and then noticed that fewer and fewer were reciprocating each year. When I became ill a few years back I started to cut back on my list because it was such a task. I bought cute cards at The Christmas Tree Shoppe (very inexpensive but cute) and my plan is to have the envelopes stamped and addressed by the Saturday after Thanksgiving, and then I'll personalize a few every evening so that they are all ready to go in the mail no later than the following Saturday. I wish everyone a holiday filled with peace, love, joy, laughter and wonderful memories - God Bless Briggie's last blog post..Denzel Washington And The BAMC

Merry Christmas, opps, not quite…. I’d love to exchange Christmas cards with you. I already have your address, I’ll email you mine.
How fun. I don’t do a lot of Christmas cards, just for a few special people in my life. What a great idea you had.

Xmas cards have become a thing of the past, for the most part. I send and receive fewer and fewer of them every year, it seems. Last year, I sent out more than normal because we had a new family picture. Guess we’d better have a new one taken soon since I look so different this year!

That is great! I’d like to be included in your card exchange this’ll be fun! Okay, and as for those cards recieved from the years before, the teacher part of me, doesn’t like to throw anything away! I recycle them into gift tags and cards like someone said above, but last year, I went a little further, cutting the fronts off, if they weren’t written on, some I cut a nice border with scalloped scissors, then on the backside of that, I drew a line like a postcard, complete with address lines, popped a postcard stamp on, and mailed out my quickie card! haha! People kept asking me where I got Christmas postcards! Oh yeah, when I cut the front of the card off, I always wrote in the corner where I’d be putting the stamp who the card came from in the first place, so I wouldn’t send it back to them! )

We go the cheap route and send out the boxed ones, but mainly because we send out close to 100 every year. We do put the girls’ Christmas photos in them (well, color copies since Ron can usually get them done for free) and I compose a holiday letter summarizing our year (note to self – better start writing… or maybe just direct everyone to my blog url this year, LOL). The cards we get always are hung along the top of the sliding glass door in our kitchen and down the sides if we have too many. They make a great addition to our holiday decorations!
