to Holiday card exchange sign up time??!!
With the weather finally starting to cool off, I got some blankets out from storage and saw all my little glitter bottles just begging for a card to be put into.

Glitter. Ugh. The ONLY reason that I don't sign up for the exchange......just call me the *glitter scrooge*.

Its funny you mentioned this tesla. MH and I were organizing our calendar this weekend for our Christmas parties and events...of course the Christmas Card exchange was on there.
We'll be announcing the date/s and sign up in an upcoming thread in the next couple of weeks

LOL!!
And I'm really keeping my fingers crossed that our Elves will be willing to help again this year.
Their participation last year cut down on about 7 days of work...literally
Plus it was a fun little party with them all

I left the bag of glitter from last year on the counter in the corner all year. Every time I saw it it made me smile. Bring it on! Looking forward to it.

I loved the look on my mailman's face when he realized he had a trail of glitter behind him when he gave me my mail.

Just thinking about those cards and the joy on Teslet's face as he dumped glitter all over...it's made a tough Monday a lot easier to take
