I know it is probably a little late for some of you, but those of you who like to leave everything to the last minute, this is the perfect Holiday Card! Not only do you save the environment, but you can send a card with personalized photos that are way more interesting the most regular cards I get! Here is the email I sent out to all my contacts, family, friends, business contacts, etc.

Merry Greetings to All!
Hope this finds you all doing well! I ran across a website while searching for places in Nashville to see Christmas Lights and what I found moved me! The website said "This year, Americans are projected to send 2 Billion...that's billion, with a "B"... holiday cards. Multiply 2 Billion by .42 (the cost of postage), and Americans will spend 840 Million dollars, that's $840,000,000, in postage alone during this holiday season. Any idea where those 2 billion cards (and their envelopes) will end up? Yup, the dump!" Since I have always been a passionate environmentalist (started recycling when I was like 10...honest, ask my mother), I was moved to take Jeremy's suggestion and send a Holiday eCard.

You will notice Chris is not in any of the photos, he is a little camera shy. But, we ALL wish you a wonderful Holiday Season and a Marvelous New Year!

In Peace,
Elisha, Chris, Zoe & Bella

I have been debating this in my own blogs and I think that is a great idea. Good post!
