Personalized Christmas/Holiday Cards

Today we took the picture with our dog to order Christmas cards through Wal-Mart. It was interesting because there is no one here at the house to take the picture for us so we had to use the timer.  So we ordered the cards and I organized my address list on Excel so I can print labels. It's all a very easy process these days. I even printed labels with our own address with a cute Christmas Snoopy on them.

So can tell me, is it cool to send the personalized cards or is it better to buy the boxed cards? I know that some families write entire novels about what has happened to each of them this year.
Which is better? Would you rather get a card that was personalized or a  generic card with the year's life story of the family written out on stationary for the recipient to read?

Personally, when Jorge and I have more to report then maybe we will try out the latter, but for now it is the former. Hopefully, they'll turn out cute.

  1. Depends. I quite often cringe over the too much information moments on the family updates so I prefer the generic ones...

  2. Yeah, the huge page long usually is a skimmer. But if the family lives far away I like a paragraph. :)
