The best of all gifts around any Christmas tree: the presence of a happy family all wrapped up in each other. ~Burton Hillis
I sent out my Christmas cards yesterday.
Our family card is a BIG deal in this family.
It's a tradition.
We are all involved in choosing a picture.
This year the theme was "Christmas plaid".
It was Kerry's idea that we all wear plaid flannel shirts.
I think it's the best picture to date.
But as I stuff the envelopes and put the stamps on, I always remember the past years, the past pictures.

And this year - our Christmas plaid photo. This is NOT the photo we chose for our card. It's one of the out-takes. It's a spoof on the Von Trapps in the Sound of Music when they sang "So long, Farewell" on stage at the festival and the kids popped out from behind the parents!
If you are on our list, your card is in the mail!
