Tink has been maintaining the list for all of us but this year has proved to be very busy at her paying job so since I have some extra time on my hands.....

For those of you new to BT (Bill, Rouffy) we do a strictly non-mandatory holiday card exchange. If you want to get cards, give cards or just check out the list, I'm asking you to please forward your address via e-mail to me. I will need it if you have joined us after last holiday season or moved since 2007 (Cynde forwarded me the list that was last updated in 2007)

If you are unable to send cards but still like to receive cards please join in! I like sending just as much as getting!! And I have some awesome cards for my friends this year! (evil laugh!)

So anyway, that's the deal. Please join in if you'd like, the more the merrier!

Disclaimer: the term "holiday cards" is not meant to offend anyone, but some of us do celebrate differently than others and we want everyone to feel included! It's a season of caring for me...no matter what religion, race, age, gender or planet you are from!

I think mine's the same but I sent you a PM anyway just in case.

Now let's see if I can actually SEND the cards this year. I have some in a baggie from 2002 I think. BAD, BAD, BAD. Maybe I'll resurrect those in say 2012. hehehe

I believe they are standard label size ( not sure of the exact measurements, sorry!) I had trouble too, they didn't line up properly when I printed. Let me update the file when I get all the info and I'll see what I can do...:-)

M ~ did you see my new FB page photo?? LOL

Due to my economic situation, I will not be sending X'mas cards this year but would appreciate receiving the list.

I have enjoyed getting cards every year, thank you to those who have sent them.

Okay...so while I have a little extra time this coming week I will be putting the list together. I should expect to have it done by Friday and the send it out to everyone!

Thanks everyone for getting back to me and if you still want to e-mail me with changes or new a new address I'm still compiling! :-)

Oh, there are a few names on the list that I do not recognize, they may have been on BT before my time and I have never seen them post. I will leave the names on the list as some of you may know them.

HEY is anyone up for sending post cards instead of real cards??? we did it one year and we all got lovely postcards from all over the country and world for that matter :-) I made a collage that I bring out at Christmas...and no it doesn't have blue balls sparkle on it..

LOL....I know we got some postcards when we did the recipe exchange one year :-)

I'm game for whatever. I have yet to buy cards this year so maybe I can create something unique to send out.

I wanted to remind peeps about using postcards but didn't want to offend anyone in tight circumstances! Thanks Freddie! Less postage, less cost for cards, and still keeping in touch! Priceless! :-)

Bad speller!

Tribs - You play here plenty! You're all inclusive!

I appreciated the post cards from wherever, because it showed me a little of the area history or beauty that I hadn't known.

RA - Are you actually mailing cereal boxes? Full or empty?! Can we make special requests!? :-) (Relax, Rianna is fine and having a great time!)

Gail! LOL no cereal boxes, just being silly!

Rianna called about an hour ago, they made it safely and she said it was beautiful but the electricity was out in the cabin and they were working on getting it back up.

We've already ordered our cards. I usually make up a postcard, but we went in a different direction this year. I wonder if I can get the labels for the back that make them postcards? It would be cheaper for the ones we send out of the country.
