I’m so excited to reveal our Christmas card to you! Last year, the beautiful and talented Nina of According to Nina designed a precious card for us. We were expecting our first baby at the time and had announced the news by then, but were still reluctant to put it on the card. It was also fun to have our first card be just about the two of us!
This year, there are three of us (five including the dogs) and I’m just overwhelmed by the difference a year makes. The amount of love in our house has increased exponentially. Hopefully everyone that should have received a card in the mail has received it already and this post isn’t ruining the surprise for you.
I wrote the text and selected the photos, then sent the text to the fabulous Tracy Β Turpen. She designed and printed the card for us. And she never told me that she thought my cheesy text was, in fact, cheesy.
Did you send out Christmas cards this year? Don’t you think receiving Christmas cards is one of the greatest things about Christmas time? We’ve got a giant bowl on our table full of Christmas cards. I’m so excited to hear from so many friends this time of year!

Very cute card, I love it!
We sent outs out (we used a wedding photo) a week ago. Everyone loved it and I’ve been enjoying getting cards from everyone else! We keep them in a bowl too!
Laura says
I love the card! The wording is great. We are sending out our Christmas cards tomorrow. We do cards every year. Last year, we used a photo from our wedding, since we got married in Mid November. This year, we did a photo shoot for our first anniversary and used one of those photos. I love Christmas cards!

That card is classy and wonderful! You three look great. We definately send out Christmas cards. We have a garland going up the banister where we clip the cards. We save the photo ones from year to year. I keep them in an album. It is fun to look at the pictures from years past.

SO adorable! The baby toesies… the Nanettes… SWOON! And I don’t think your text is cheesy at all – I love it!
Christmas cards are my favorite – ours are all displaying in a big window in the living room on ribbon – and when we get to my grandparents’ home, I’ll spend at least an hour, cuddled up by the fire, looking through all of theirs!

Amy Walker says
I don’t think your cheesy text was cheesy at all! I love your card…super cute!
MelissaF says
I don’t think your card text is cheesy at all…it fits perfectly with that picture of little baby toes!! Very adorable. I always send Christmas cards and yes, getting them is a highlight of Christmas for me. Unfortunately, I’ve gotten a lot fewer this year. Don’t know if it’s the economy and people are cutting out “non-necessities”, but I sure miss getting at least one every day in the mail. Merry Christmas!
Carol says
love your card, thanks for sharing! We (I) sent out cards this year – not a photo card, maybe next year. I did write a note in each one, some longer than others. I love getting cards in the mail and reading them and seeing the photos. I want to keep this year’s and pull them out next year to see how much the kids have grown over the year, for those that send me photos of the kiddos each year. I tried to do it this year but the box that last year’s cards were in seem to have gotten lost in our move π
Christmas cards are a favorite thing of mine, and when I go to my parents I look through my mom’s to see what her friends and my extended family are up to.
Suzi says
That is really, really cute! I love receiving Christmas cards too, but it has also been fun that so many bloggers have been putting them up online… it’s like a double dose!
Buckhead Belle says
What a precious card!
LyndsAU says
I was so thrilled to receive your card!! It is PRECIOUS!! I love it! One of my faves of the season π
Legallyblondemel says
That “head to toes” shot is so creative, and of course I dig your shoes. Lovely.
We did send out cards – I always do. Love sending & receiving them every year.
JGIWC says
What a BEAUTIFUL family!!! All the best to you this holiday season.
Bonnie says
Your card is SO adorable! We just had a baby boy December 21st & I can’t wait to do Christmas cards with him next year π
