Christmas Card Question
Hi ladies! THis December we'll be celebrating DS's first Christmas, and I'm going to send out photo holiday cards to family and friends. In past years, I've rarely sent cards, and when I did, I sent out more traditional cards in which I signed for myself and DH. Now that I have a baby, I ordered photo cards with DSs picture on them, and they already say, "Season's Greetings from (our names).
So my question is, do I have to write anything personal on the cards, or can I send them as is? I was going to write a personal note on the back of some of them, but I'd rather not have to do it for all. My mom basically said that I should write a note on them, but she can be a little old-fashioned when it comes to things like that.
I feel like I've gotten lots of cards in recent years that just had pictures, but no personal, hand written greeting, but I'm not sure. What do you all think? How is it usually done these days?
Re: Christmas Card Question
im not sure what the "right" thing to do is, but we always receive photo cards and theres no person note or anything on them. I also send out photo cards and i only write a note to people who we havent seen in a while, or whatever.
I don't think I've gotten a Christmas card with anything besides a picture in... um... over 5 years.
I enjoy the pictures and never even thought to be offended that they didn't take time to hand write "Merry Christmas! We should get together soon. It's been too long. Love, your long lost friend."
And if anybody has a problem with the Christmas cards/ photos/ letters that I may or may not send, they probably shouldn't be getting one from me anyway.
