I had just picked up mail from my PO Box, and I was standing in line at Starbucks,
waiting to order my Tall Peppermint Hot Chocolate
with whipped cream & red sprinkles of course!
The line was long, so I had some time to go through my mail.
I started opening beautiful cards from you guys -- and I'm talking BEAUTIFUL!
A few were cards that I had designed, but most were cards that you guys
designed & ordered all on your own, and THEY ARE STUNNING!
I was caught up in the joy of opening gorgeous card after gorgeous card
when I heard a noise behind me.
I turned around, and the lady in line behind me blurt out,
"MY GOODNESS, HOW MANY BEAUTIFUL FRIENDS CAN ONE PERSON HAVE?!"
I have the best clients on the planet! Thanks for sending me so much joy!
Here's a sample of cards that I got this year:
AND, I know everyone is anxiously awaiting the winner of this year's iPod Touch!
After I picked up my mail today, I assigned every card a number,
wrote all the numbers on identical pieces of paper,
put the papers in a bag, and had Rory choose one without looking.
AND THE WINNER IS....
Kelli and her wonderful family!!!!!
Congratulations Kelli!!
And, as an added bonus to this year's Card Extravaganza,
here's a cartoon that got a good chuckle out of me:
