It is that time of year, that everyone should be receiving Christmas cards. In my case I can not send a card to each of you my readers, because I don’t have all of your addresses, nor do I have time enough to address all those cards. Yet you are still very important to me.

However, what I learned last year, was a picture is worth a thousand words. Sending a simple picture of me with my “family” was a great way to share a thousand Christmas words.

Now this year I decided to do something different and made an online scrapbook. Thus between the pictures, the “Christmas Time is Here” song and all that’s at least 20,000 words I am sharing with you and that HAS TO BE BETTER than a card right?

Ok, all joking aside… cards aren’t my thing. Writing is my lifelong dream, while graphics are a passion of mine. So writing a blog post to you and showing you a few pictures from the past year is the best way for me to send a Christmas card.

Thank you for spending valuable time with me. Thank you for all you do. This year has been so stressful, with jobs, finances, economic worries, worries about society and more that I know sometimes you may question what was good this past year… but you are a gift to me. Your life touches so many that you will never know…

Thank you, and I hope you enjoy my Christmas card, please feel free to comment below.

Please read the note below the card…

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year
