Do you send out holiday cards? I am a huge fan of snail mail. I love sending family and friends cards for any and all occasions, I also love receiving cards! Every year I send out a holiday photo card to my closest friends. I look forward to doing it every year.
Check out my 2008 Holiday card here and my 2007 Holiday card here. Obviously, both include Jackson.
This years card was special because since fiancé and I are recently engaged, we sent a card together this year! I was beyond excited to have a picture of our family to be on the card this year! I used a picture that we took when we went wine tasting in Hershey, PA the weekend of our engagement. Obviously Jackson had to be in the picture too!
What do you think of our card??
All our presents are wrapped up tight and divided onto weather they are going to Virginia or New Jersey.
I am so excited to give all our gifts to our family and friends! I think I like giving presents to our loved ones and seeing them open it better than I like opening presents for me!
All ready to travel!
Also I wanted to show you what I did with the candy coated chocolate covered pretzels from yesterday. I couldn’t find a tin big enough, or pretty enough to put them in so I put them in big red bowls.
The bigger bowl is coming to NJ and the smaller bowl is coming to VA. I tasted one yesterday and its SO GOOD. I hope everyone at the parties like them!
I put some red see through wrapping paper around them to keep them both fresh and tied them with a bow and I think they look fabulous!
I am so proud of myself! I can’t wait to give them to fiancé’s and my parents!
In other news, Jackson has been a very good boy this year and is patiently waiting for Santa Clause to get here!
