Christmas Cards

I am feeling a little sad. As much as I like blogs, I think they may have taken place of the traditional Christmas card. It is true, I can check people's blogs who I never would've gotten a Christmas card from. But, I am a very tactile person, and there is something about receiving a personal card in the mailbox.
Now, I am fine with blogs taking the place of Christmas letters, those are usually painful. I also think they stopped with my parents generation. Although, we always did have some good laughs reading those aloud.
We have received one Christmas card this year. It was from the First Presidency through Travis's work, so that is pretty cool. You really can't display ONE Christmas card, though.
So, for all of you reading this, it is still worth sending Christmas cards. You can skip the letter and the photo even (if you are good at keeping your blog updated), but nothing beats getting a real Christmas card with a personal note inside from someone you don't hear from as much as you'd like.
I wasn't going to send out cards this year, but after not getting any, and re-reading some of the very special ones last year, I reconsidered. So, if you sent me one last year, keep checking the mail.
Also, if you aren't going to send me a card, at least post a comment on my blog or send me an email to let me know you still remember me :)
