Bpathome that is hilarious!!! Thank Annie for your idea as well. We went with "Merry Christmas from our family, including baby-to-be, on the site of our home-to-be!" Kids had a blast climbing the equipment and our son even got to drive a bit, sharing the seat with the licensed operator. His expression and the pure joy captured in the videos is priceless.

Oldbat2be, that looks awfully dangerous! I stopped sending out cards many, many years ago, and now hardly get any. When we were still in the child rearing stage, we got tons of photo cards and I left them in a pile for everyone to look through. Now we get cards mainly from shops and dentists and a few photo cards from young relatives. We did get a card this year from old friends that had a picture of their kids on the front--- now in their mid twenties--- and I have to admit it liooked the tiniest bit creepy, sort of Twilight Zone-y............ ......(Rod Serling voiceover) .........here you see Jane and Tom, trapped forever on the front of their parents' Christmas card.....

My husband's deckhand doesn't pick up her mail very often, but she finally did a couple of days ago, and received a Christmas card and didn't notice that it wasn't addressed to her until she opened it. Inside was a check for $1,000. Since most people have cell phones now and they aren't listed, my husband called the phone number on the check....some people in Colorado who had sent the $1,000 to their son for Christmas....got his phone number and we were able to meet him yesterday and give him his check and the card.

Wanda, just added you. Don't worry. You aren't late! And I enjoy doing this. I have 14 of us signed up, including me. As that is all we have, unless all of you want me to split the list into 2 groups, I will just leave it as one group, and we send to everyone. Let me know if you want it split, please!
