I'm talking about actual paper or photo cards that you put in an envelope, stick a stamp on and post! Its been a while since I actually did that. Last year I bought a few cards, but ended up sending ecards and emails to almost everyone. What do you plan to do this Christmas?

That's really cute - will you be using the pic of the new baby in your Christmas card itself?

I just got married a month ago, so this will be the first Christmas I'll be celebrating as a married woman. I have a four year old son, but I wouldn't have ever sent Christmas cards out before I got married. I'm not planning on sending cards out this year though either. Maybe a couple years down the road or something, but depending on what you do it is kind of costly to send them out. Even if you don't spend much on cards or just send out something simple, the postage alone ends up costing just as much as the cards, depending on how many you send out of course. My dad's cousin and his family does something very cool every year though - instead of a christmas letter, they put together a "poem" type letter that rhymes and tells about everyone's year and what they've all been up to. It's actually very good and I'm sure it takes them a while to come up with all of it! I don't know if they work on it all together, or if it's just one of them that does it, but it's cool whoever does it!

I try to send cards whenever I can. But I also like online cards. And everybody understands. So, it just all depends on the financial situation at the time. :)
