You know those families that send out photo-Christmas-cards (often color coordinated) to adorn friends' refrigerators across the country. Well, I always kind of wanted to be in one of those families ~ punctual, thoughtful, color coordinated, organized, in front of lovely natural backdrops, you know, happy, pretty, on-people's-fridges-kind-of-people.
And now that I'm married, I have my own, new family and we can start new traditions. But I guess when it comes down to it, I have reservations like: getting dressed-up in matching clothes just for a photo (it seems fake, too planned) So I like real moments, and I value living simply - so it seems silly to pay so much for these photo-cards... So until we figure something out... here's a sample photo Christmas card:

rad, molls.
we are in the process of doing ours too. we decided to NOT send out postcards, so we are making a website!
I hope our photo isn't too fake, it was a bit planned, but I'd still like to be on your fridge for a while
no worries, Christi, we also had to do a "planned-tri-pod-dress-appropriately-photo-shoot" because none of the other "natural" shots worked out. =) And of course course course we would love to have your photo on our fridge!! thanks for thinking of us. (i need your blog address - i've lost it.)
my blog address is ben-christi.blogspot.com
and I love your blog card, your smiles make me so happy.
Merry Christmas Orrs! I can't wait to (potentially) see you!
