Our 2007 Christmas Card

It has been a busy week and weekend… but we finally got all of our decorations put up – and the boxes back into the attic (which honestly seems like the hardest part!).  My husband completed all the outside lights just before the first winter storm hit, and I was able to pick up a few gifts for family members that we can now cross off the list.  I even had time to finish and address our Christmas cards pictured above.   Getting that done by December 3rd is a record for me!   This was my first year actually making them all - and I have to say I may be hooked.  Of course I have also been warned, everyone will now expect a hand-made card every year so I may have opened up a can of worms.

I’m so excited I now have some more time to try some craft ideas for the holidays.  In the next few weeks I’ll share them here, including some things from the holiday Pottery Barn catalog that you can just as easily make yourself at home.  (Shhhh, don’t tell ;) )

Hope you have a great day today and thanks for stopping by.
