Christmas Cards

I got a little upset yesterday about one of our (Kristine and my) traditions... Christmas cards. I don't really know why it bothers me, because I know that there are some people out there who just don't send them. We pride ourselves on having the BEST Christmas card. Each year, I want you to look at our Xmas card and think "this is a GREAT card!" I know it is only the 14th, but as of right now (and there are plenty of days before Christmas) we have received 4... yes, 4 Christmas cards. Last year, I think we sent out 75 cards and got back 25-30. Really? I don't understand how hard it is to send out a card. If you have kids, you should be ashamed! show them off! Take a picture of them and show them off... that's what they're there for! Are you worried about $$? You can send a picture to Wal-Fart.com and it'll cost you $0.21 per card. I know postage is tough these days ($.044 per stamp) but c'mon. You can't spend an extra couple of dollars each year to tell those close to you Happy Holidays. I've always believed that Christmas i the season for giving, so you will continue to receive your annual Leffler family photo, all I ask is that ya spend the $0.66 and return the favor. We sent out 80 cards this year, in a few weeks I'll let you know how many we get back. You have 3 years... if we don't get a Christmas card within that time period... you are off the list!

haha we sent 78 last year. and fyi. there is no 3 year warning. Done-Zo. i said we should only give out cards to ppl who give us them this year- and u disagreed. if you want to battle....there is a yard full of 4ft of snow to battle it out in.

that's a really good rule! I think we'll do that too. You'll have at least one more card coming from us!
