So, I'm thinking about sending Christmas Cards this year...

I neglected this tradition last year and thought I would pick it up again. I've never did a photo card before, so I thought I would try out http://www.shutterfly.com/ for my first experience with a photo card.

Since I have 4 kids, I need a card with several photo spots. We recently had pictures taken at http://www.shutterfly.com/cards-stationery/cards-stationery/tree-of-hope-american-lung-association-holiday-5x7-folded-card?sortType=1&fa=8&storeNode=93491&fc=2a local photo studio, I'd love to use those in my card.

My favorites are these: http://www.shutterfly.com/cards-stationery/cards-stationery/how-holly-story-christmas-card-5x7-flat

I'm leaning towards the last one since it would include two photos of each child and I could write a brief "Christmas Update Letter" inside.

I love Christmas!! This year I'm especially excited to send pictures to the grandparents (who all live far away). We've really neglected picture taking this year and both sides of the family are after us for new pictures. Actually, they said "any and all pictures". LOL I guess we really need to get on that. A picture card would make it quick and easy for me, too. And we have a group shot of the four of them that I could print in 4x6 and include. YAY!

Only 31 days until Christmas! What are you doing to get ready? Are your cards sent? Are your gifts purchased? Wrapped?

Better get busy! :)
