Christmas Card (2012)

For the past 28 years we have tried to make our Christmas letter a one page poem, and for the past 10 years we have created a video of the previous years’ photos that follow the Christmas letter and that years highlights. 2012 years’ video song is from Steven Curtis Chapman called The Christmas Card. I found the words most fitting and hope my photos do not distract from that message. We had not done any one big item that year, but so thankful for the little moments that meant so much and for friends like you that fill our memories. Just as we completed the video, we had to put down our cat we had for 17 years and on Dec 21st, Jans mom went home to her reward and is free from pain now- Celebrating Christmas in Heaven. I wish we could visit you in person- hopefully at least we can hear back from you. We want to Wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. Below is our Christmas Traditional Christmas Letter and if you click on the video, you will see our traditional Christmas Video for 2012.
