Our Christmas Card!

Once again, we decided against sending a Christmas card to 100+ of our nearest and dearest family and friends (so, please, do not take offense when you don't receive one from us!). We ordered just 20 cards from shutterfly (I had a code for 10 free and we ordered 10 more) to give to our most immediate family members and a couple friends. Here's the card (click on it to see a larger version):



We used the other $60+ that we would have spent on cards/stamps and donated it to THIS organization. This is our fourth year contributing to them and each year we are able to give more because we find ways to cut back in our spending. It really just makes more sense to help build a well for clean water for a whole community rather than spend the money on clothes, toys, books, etc. that our kids do not need. They still have plenty of gifts to open on Christmas Day, as you will see when I write up that blog!

We do wish everyone a very Merry Christmas!!! And we pray for God's continued blessings in the New Year!
