I pledge that every year. I was so close this year, but in the back of my mind I heard you and Jill complaining about a Family Christmas Photo Card you'd received that had NO NEWSLETTER, no NOTHING! So I hunkered down...and now you're telling me I could have gotten away with it?Cha Chahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05196767047326211153noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3626435726269756106.post-86588915570044578802010-12-17T12:59:18.910-07:002010-12-17T12:59:18.910-07:00I say keep talking about your problems... that see...I say keep talking about your problems... that seems to be a winner all around. :)Loriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15559556280487780622noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3626435726269756106.post-22499690471859094112010-12-16T19:06:02.833-07:002010-12-16T19:06:02.833-07:00Just read last year's card!

Every year I say I'm going to do it, but my seriously disorganized tendencies get in the way. I've given up the charade of pretending it's going to happen. :)Alyson | New England Livinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16209837924378793507noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3626435726269756106.post-63067423956039324242010-12-16T15:51:39.045-07:002010-12-16T15:51:39.045-07:00What happened to the "I've gained more we...What happened to the "I've gained more weight, Cory has lost more hair etc." Idea?Jillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13176618001781734942noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3626435726269756106.post-70283164668302608632010-12-16T07:50:09.908-07:002010-12-16T07:50:09.908-07:00I'm always thinking about coming up with somet...I'm always thinking about coming up with something unique and it doesn't always work. You know, the perfect balance of information and humor paired with a great picture... something not to formal and stuffy, but that shows who we are without seeming boastful or pretentious. We're really not that exceptional. I'll keep trying though.Stefanihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17547900495157751102noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3626435726269756106.post-14461121509376247412010-12-15T23:49:17.260-07:002010-12-15T23:49:17.260-07:00I know, right?

There is just no telling what kids will think is good. Don't worry, if they hate it that much, than next year is a shoe in!!Pitterle Postingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02944899733768126383noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3626435726269756106.post-82662656035752133802010-12-15T15:59:28.644-07:002010-12-15T15:59:28.644-07:00I remember your last year Christmas card post.
