Omg, I JUST ordered mine over the weekend and my husband and I came up with a poem for the torture that we endured. It’s pretty generic so feel free to copy and use:

THE HOLIDAY PHOTO
Gathered the kids for a photo this year
Hoping they would show us some holiday cheer
Our little angels wouldn’t sit still at all
They pushed, they shoved and started to brawl
Many shots later we were done with the stress
So this is our holiday card, we guess

We use Shutterfly too and I picked:
Charming Gift Wrap Christmas 5×7 folded card
I like that there is a single photo on the front and then I put a bunch on the inside left and also where the poem went.

Our kids are 5 1/2 and 19months old, so you can imagine the time we had.

good luck!

“But my outfit is cute” – as a man, let me say this is something you’ll never hear a man (who likes women) say. But the more blogs I read by women, the more I get it.

And before digital cameras – we took a lot of bad shots – and paid for the film – and paid for the prints. Ugh.

And I pick the Many Memories Snowflake – you said you had lots of nice pics – this way you can put them all on – and snowflakes are classic.

Merry Christmas

Oh, the quest for the perfect card– it’s my least favorite part of the season!

Christmas cards are so flippin hard to do. I have about 3 pictures so far of both kids looking at the camera at the same time. Ever. And my youngest, my daughter is 22 months old. Sigh.

Glad you got a good card!!

I did the post, I have the coupon, I picked a card. And now? I’m second-guessing the choice so I haven’t orderedyet. I am probably the worlds most indecisive person, hands down.

The one you have featured is in one of my top 5, by the way. My problem? Do I include a pic of the hubs & I or just kids? For some reason, I don’t have a shot of the whole fame FOR THE ENTIRE YEAR. So not like me..

Can’t wait to meet you Blissdom!
