Hubby and I do a photo card every year but we have fun with it---we always use one of our vactation photos. In 2006, we used a photo from spring training, we were in our Cards gear and the Cards players were on the field in the background, our caption said "Merry Christmas from Simbagal, hubby and the World Champion STL Cardinals!"....sent to all of my Cub fan relatives in Iowa. Last year it was a photo from Rome.....
This year, it will be a photo from our latest trip to Munich, hubby in lederhosen, I'm in a dirndle and we're holding our bier steins. And, no, we do NOT send a 2 page letter....we actually send no letter with the cards. I have one aunt who complains that I don't send a letter but I don't give a crap.....she's lucky to even get a card from me. So there!

I think I'm going to photoshop my christmas cards. I think that'd be funny.

Re: Christmas Cards with pictures:
We do that. There serious cards not the funny stuff you would probably do. My wife also does the Christmas letter thing that tells all about our year. We have a lot of friends/family who don't see us much or at all and never get to see the kids. They seem to like it.thrill wrote:I think I'm going to photoshop my christmas cards.

I like Christmas essays.
It's not like you're forced to read it.

Re: Christmas Cards with pictures:
This is one of those instances where I'm extra glad to be Jewish. Nobody sends out Chanukah cards.
And now an anecdote:
At my old law firm, one of the partners would send his family's christmas card with a big color photo to every employee of the firm (all told, about 300 people). My first year I got the card and had to ask someone who the heck it was and why I got it. Then they pointed out an unfortunate fact: this is without a doubt one of the ugliest families in the country. Top 5% at least. After that, I looked forward to getting the thing.
