Oh Christmas Card, Oh Christmas Card

Yosemite Valley Overlook-2008

Each year I have such drama trying to get a card together and this year is no different. Costco lost my order, then they printed them too dark, they finally got it right on Christmas Eve. Then I am missing addresses. The waste of paper and the cost of stamps makes me grumpy. But alas, they are out (to those of you whose addresses I have) and once again I am glad I made the effort. It is kind of nice to use them as a marker for time-a quick way to see how our family is changing. Here is this year's card picture (for those of you who didn't get one-sorry) and the pictures of years past.

White Sands National Monument-New Mexico-2007

Glacier Bay-Alaska-2006

Lake Arenal-Costa Rica-2005

Our Old Living Room (so exotic that you can't go there anymore)-2004

Provo Center Street-2003
Okay, this wasn't our card picture, but look how young we WERE!

And this tour takes me to back before when we had a digital camera, okay, that makes us really old. I'm not sure I can even remember not having a digital camera. No more pics.

Thanks for walking down memory lane with me. Have a happy new year!

Speaking of the new year, I wonder where 2009 will take the Howell family? We've got some ideas, but we're taking suggestions!
