Don't Expect a Christmas Card From Us

I am a bit of a humbug when it comes to Christmas cards. I don't see much point in printing off pictures and giving updates to people that I see or keep in touch with on a regular basis. Anyone who cares to be updated on our lives can read this blog and get much more information than a card would give them. There are a handful of people who are an exception to this statement. That handful of people MAY actually get a Christmas card from us one year. But probably not this year.

At Thanksgiving I had hopes of getting a decent family picture taken, but as it goes each Thanksgiving, my children were sick. We still went out with my Mom to get pictures, but I didn't dress everyone in their "holiday" or "picture" attire because I really didn't expect it to go well. Ryan had super red cheeks and puffy sort of eyes. Katie's nose was raw from wiping.

I'm not saying we didn't get a cute picture or two. Consider this your Christmas card from the Bayles Family. We'll try again for a decent family picture later. Have a Merry Christmas!
