So fun! My cards are coming! I need extra postage but I don't know how much and I don't have time to go to the post office!
I'm glad your Christmas tree didn't smother you!
We got your card and it is great, I really like that picture of Carter! Thanks, we'll be sending ours out in February, sorry for the hold up.
