My cards are in the mail! I can't believe I have this done so soon! I am anxious to start getting all those Christmas cards. How do you all display your cards? I want to try something different this year but I need some ideas.

Michelle, this morning I sent out the two ornaments that I chose for you! Swapping has been fun and I hope the rest of you that are participating in the Ornament Swap are enjoying it too!

I'm lagging. I like to get one holiday over before starting on the next. I did look yesterday, at some onrnaments, but I'm waiting for the craft show next weekend.
So, mine won't be mailed until the 1st part of December. I will mail off the Canada and France cards before that though. I'll probably do those over the weekend.

I did almost forget to add me last year tho! Mrsmarv, PLEASE email me if you want in. You posted here, but didn't email me with your address & info. I don't want to count on last year's info transfering improperly, so don't want to just use what I might have, especially with my computer problems. Cheryl, thanks for double checking me. I am saving all of this on a flash drive while on the road. Whole computer is backed up at home on an external drive. So far the screen is working, as long as I have it in the correct possition, but don't dare let it go to sleep or move the screen! Tami

My Christmas Wish 2007 In recent years, my parents health (esp. my mother) has deteriorated. I recently moved 600 miles closer just to be with them. I fear this may be the last Christmas for one or both of them. They really LOVE Christmas cards! As I was rummaging through the attic to retrieve their Christmas decorations, I found Christmas cards they had received from 30 years ago. They throw NONE away. I was trying to think of something really special to do for them for Christmas and I came up with this idea. If you have the Christmas spirit, and want to do something nice for someone (who doesn't?) - please take the time to send my parent's a Christmas card. Christmas was always a magical time of year for our family and I truly want to make this magical for the both of them. Please! God Bless You and I hope you and your family have a wonderful Christmas. Address is as follows: Donald and Betty Coleman 704 Seattle Drive Lexington Kentucky 40503 Please forward this to all your family/friends/coworkers. God Bless!!!

Mine are almost ready to go out tomorrow. I did a lot on them Friday while defrosting the freezer. I had two waiting for me at the PO on Thurs. Marilyn Sue's and Janie_ga's. I bet there are more there now! I'll check tomorrow when I mail mine out. I still have another 100 or so to make and send out, between ours, and my parents' cards! Tami

My cards are stamped and ready to mail, I'll most likely get them sent off next week.

I didn't join in the ornament swap.

I've had my hands too full with Dad's pnuemonia to get anything done, then with our trip to Washington DC for the funeral service at Arlington Nat'l Cemetary, to get ornament shopping or cards done. Dad is on the mend, and we are safely back home, so I'll be getting started ASAP! I emailed Meredith before we left so she would know I was behind. I will check the P O Box when we go to DD's for dinner later today.
