Even though I like to
send cards, I can honestly say I LOVE receiving them! It is a game to me to see
whose card is the prettiest, most unique. I love going to the mail box and
seeing a card shaped envelop with Mrs. And Mrs. T on it. I cannot wait to rip
it open!
Sadly enough, we have a
little over a week left before Christmas and I have only received 5 cards. It’s
a little bit depressing in my opinion.
I send out around 50
cards every year and never really received many cards back, however, thinking
that it was because I wasn’t married and a lot of times I was still included on
my parent’s card….. Mrs. and Mrs. T and girls… UG that and girls, I mean I’m
only 26 nothing major! LOL. Anyways it
never really bothered me until last year.
I do not want to be like
all the bah humbugs in the world and not send a little bit of Holiday Cheer to
your family from mine but it is hard to when you are sending cards and not
really getting any back year after year.
None the less, I placed
our cards in the mail yesterday and decided that a little smile from my family
might go a long way in yours this year. At least in this area, a lot of people
have commented Christmas just doesn’t seem like Christmas this year.
How do you feel about
Christmas cards?
I am with you, I love Christmas cards. We have only received 3 this year :( But most of my family/friends are not married yet, so I'll use that as an excuse. We only sent out 20 because our Christmas budget was tight, but I couldn't imagine not sending them out:)
ReplyDeleteWe are up to 15 cards this year! We got a few cards from people we normally don't (could it be because we are married now??). I do agree, I feel that a lot of my family and friends that do not send cards out are not married. Our budget was tight this year also, But what I did to cut our card budget down was send all excess cards I had from years before. That helped save me a bunch of money!
