Merry Christmas

2 Go Team Pancakes!

It was your first Christmas.
And you had an awesome one.
We spent it in Canada with my family.
We attended Christmas Eve service and you slept through it...
Although you did wake up in the middle of the ceremony and started crying...
We fed you and you went back to sleep.
Christmas morning we all woke up...
Had some tea and shortbread cookies...
You had milk...
And then we opened gifts..
And you received so many great gifts...
You are so blessed little man.
I do hope you enjoyed your first Christmas!!

Christmas Greetings...

33 Go Team Pancakes!
Good morning ladies...
3 more SLEEPS 'til Christmas...it's almost here...
hope you are ready and NOT stressed.
Now onto today's post.

So how did you send Christmas greetings to family and friends?

I heard a commentary on the radio the other day about
the tradition of sending Christmas cards becoming obsolete.
And it's place, more and more people will be sending e-cards and text messages.

Can you imagine NOT sending lovely Christmas cards? 
Featuring lovely pictures of you and your loved ones in your finest clothing doing fun things?!
There is something magical about receiving cards in the mail...
especially Christmas cards like the ones below:




If it wasn't for Christmas cards, we wouldn't have received this lovely card from my mother! 
It just made both of our hearts sing...Mr. Pancake's first son-in-law card!


The other day, I received a lovely Christmas card from my blogger friend, 
Claire, and it completely made my day!
This is the reason why sending Christmas card greetings are so awesome!

E-cards are not bad however it just seems so impersonal!
Text messages is just not appropriate way to send someone cheerful Christmas greetings.
Phone calls are awesome...you can't CALL everyone but at least some people like your grandparents.

Team Pancakes was uber excited to send our first Christmas cards as a family 
and we cannot wait to continue the tradition of sending out our Christmas greetings.  
We will probably make phone calls but will NOT be sending text messages and or e-cards!

Team Pancakes sent the card above of course with our finest pictures!

Question of the Day
How are you and your family sending Christmas greetings this year?

Please let me know if you would like to join a linky party after Christmas?
It will be an awesome way to get to meet new friends for the new year...
