Christmas Cards!

[Stacey]

Hey guys!

It's been a few weeks since I was last on here and I did get such s shock with the new layout! I was like " What do I do?" hehe....:bigsmile:

Hope everyone is well and enjoying life! I can't believe we are nearly close to Christmas!! Which reminds me, if anyone wants me to send them a card, PM me your address! Rae I still have your envelope you sent me last year!

You at that same address still mate? I have Chrissy cards picked out already!

The new job is going GREAT too, although I go in for one day and have Tuesday off, being Melbourne Cup day! I would LOVE to go to the races, but it's soooo packed! Just can't stand crowds!

Anyways, just a short little hello here

Stace:toung:

[Raevengeance]

Yes, Stace - I'm still at that same address. Send me your address again, please Stace, so I can send your card out as well. Very glad that your new job is going well :)

And anyone else who enjoys getting mail at Christmas - you can PM me your address as well - and I'll add you to my Christmas Card List as well. :)

[Leslie]

Ooh yay. Christmas card time again. I was bad at this last year and never sent them out. lol I'll try my best this year. :p Rae, i think you have my new addy. Stace, I'll PM you mine. :)

[Raevengeance]

LOL Lessers - I still have a box that needs to be sent your way. I think I have your addy too - but I may ask you for it again - since my "saved" PMs are all scattered in my inbox now :p

Just went through the PMs in my inbox - and I can't find the one with your addy, Les - better send it my way again, please :)

[andrea07]

Thats so cool that ya'll send christmas cards to each other!

[Leslie]

This is the second year we're doing it. So, if anyone wants to join in.. the more the merrier!!! :D

Rae.. I'll PM it to you.

[LuvLachey]

I'm In!!! Anyone who wants a card PM me your address!

[Leslie]

I still have all of my christmas cards from last year. lol So, if anyone would like one from me - just PM me your addy. :)

[andrea07]

I def wanna join in!

[a7xnsl98d]

Yay! Mail! Now I'll have someone to send cards to...I don't usually and am jealous of people that send them! I'll catch you all with some PMs, count Tasha in! ;)

[Raevengeance]

Just a reminder to those under the age of 18 - Remember to get your parent's permission before giving out your address to anyone here.

[LuvLachey]

Good point Rae!

[shiloh06]

haha I'm so excited!! :D I'm such a loser. I actually just explained the whole christmas card exchanging concept to my mom and she was just like "ohhh okay whatever you say. you and your crazy nick lachey fan community" :p I love sending and receiving mail! Anyone PM me if you want a christmas card from the great north (haha just Toronto if you're wondering)...

[Raevengeance]

this should be cool this year - last year we had one person outta the US involved (Stacey down in Austrailia) - this year we'll get Christmas cards from around the US - Austrailia - and Canada (just so far).

[Raevengeance]

Well - I got my Christmas Cards bought now...just need to write out the ones on my list :)

[andrea07]

So I cant figure out PM's *yes dumb blonde* so if everyone else could PM with their addys 1st i would so appreciate it

[Stacey]

I tried to send you a reply and it popped up that it you are either not allowed to receive PMs or you've chosen not to! AGH! We'll have to figure it out!

[LuvLachey]

Same thing for me! I got the same error message when I tried to PM you

[Stacey]

OMG really? Hmmm I'll go fix up the doovy lacker thingy! Thanks for letting me know Tash! :amuse: Wonder why it's done that?!?? :huh:

[Stacey]

Hey guys! Give it a try whenever! I think I may have accidentally tick a box I shouldn't have *lol* :toung: let me know how you go!

[a7xnsl98d]

You're working now, Stace! It took me forever to get used to the new forum! :push:

[SpezialK]

Is anyone else going to join in on this one?:worried:

[Raevengeance]

Anyone else want to get some NICE Mail from the postman? I'm hoping to get my cards out this week - so let me know ASAP :)

[Stacey]

You're working now, Stace! It took me forever to get used to the new forum! :push:

YAAY! *lol* awesome!!! Sorry I haven't been on here in a few days, I've been flat out! I've got my Chrissy cards already now I can start writing them out!:toung:

[SpezialK]

Just a reminder to get your cards and send them! I got mine!:blink1:

[LuvLachey]

I'm doing mine this weekend and mailing them on Monday.

[SpezialK]

I got to check on the postage for Canada and Australia! Never sent anything that far, LOL!

[Leslie]

Isn't it the same price?

[SpezialK]

If it is then I dont need to go to the Post Office!:wacko: I have no idea?:weird:

[Raevengeance]

The price to send to Canada and Australia are a little higher than mailing within the US - you can find the costs online at USPS.com - http://pe.usps.com/text/pub51/51tblb_002.html#vnameref_1
Basically - a 1 ounce letter/card (and I'm sure a normal card can't be much more than that) sent Airmail to Canada is 63 cents and to Austraila is 84 Cents.

[Leslie]

Thanks for the info, Rae. I didn't know that. :)

[Raevengeance]

Not a prob :)

I was wondering this myself. Looks like I'm heading to the post office on Saturday and then will send them out! They're addressed and waiting!:idea:

Thats what they told me at the USPS today. I had to get stamps anyway,LOL!

[Leslie]

My cards will finally go in the mailbox tomorrow. :) I just finished addressing them.

[Raevengeance]

I'll be dropping mine in the mail tomorrow too

[SpezialK]

I havent done mine yet.:noworry: They will be in the mail tomorrow though. I was too busy working on the video of Nick.:wacko:

[Stacey]

Doing mine this afternoon, just have to double check the addy's are right!

I hope you guys like the cards I got you!:D

[LuvLachey]

And we all appreciate it!! I'm doing my cards this weekend and will mail them out on Monday! Some of you may not get them until just before christmas but hopefully you'll get them in time for christmas! If not..HAPPY NEW YEAR!! lol!

[Raevengeance]

LOL
based on last year - I think my card got from Wisconsin to Stacey down in Austraila in a little over a week - so they do move quite quickly considering the distances some of them go.
Edit to add: Just went back to last year's thread - and I mailed them 12/3 and Stace got hers on 12/12. Not too bad when you realize she's 1/2 a world away ;)

[Stacey]

That sounds about right mate!!! I'm hopeless at guessing *lol* Right well I'm off now, as I wanna get down to the shopping centre to go to the post office and get these cards sent to you!:D

I can't wait till you guys receive them!! Let me know when you get them!

I'll be back later on here tonight!!!:)

[Raevengeance]

My cards are in the mail :) Hope you all enjoy them -

[SpezialK]

^^^Mine to! Finally got around to doing them at 11:00,LOL!

[Stacey]

YAAY! Hurry up postman! I want my Chrissy cards! *lol*:toung:

[Raevengeance]

LOL Stacey

[LuvLachey]

I mailed my cards today :)

[shiloh06]

me too!! :D

[Raevengeance]

Kim,
I got your card in the mail today - Very cute. Thanks :)

[SpezialK]

Funny! I got yours today to,LOL! :blink: Thanks!

[Raevengeance]

lol nice to know the mail takes just as long to get here as it does to leave here ;)

[Kristen07]

I want to participate :( but I know if I give out my home address, it would not go over well with my parents. Espcially my dad. Maybe I will next year when I'm in college, hehe.

[Raevengeance]

awww we wish you could be part of it too, Kris - but you are definitely right - it's better to wait than give out your address while you're living at home - especially when you aren't 18 yet.

[Lindsey Lou]

Kris~ I know what your going through. I couldn't until I was 18, and then they really didn't care that much :-)

[Kristen07]

I'm 18... I just know my parents will not approve if I did it. I'll give y'all my dorm address when I go to college to send to next year :)

[SpezialK]

I'm 18... I just know my parents will not approve if I did it. I'll give y'all my dorm address when I go to college to send to next year :)

Guess we will see you next year on the Christmas Card list!:)

Hey Les, I got your card today. Very cute! THANKS!:)

[Leslie]

Kim & Rae I got your cards. Thank you! :D Sorry for the short message I put in the card. The both of you wrote me a paragraph. lol I'll do better next year.

[Raevengeance]

Hey lessers
I got your card today :) it was cute - thankies :)

[LuvLachey]

Kim & Rae I got your cards. Thank you! :D Sorry for the short message I put in the card. The both of you wrote me a paragraph. lol I'll do better next year.


I didn't write much either!! Sorry! I'll do much better next year too! :cheesy:

I still haven't received any cards.

[Raevengeance]

no need to apologize for only writing a little bit, people. Some people just sign their names on cards - it's the thought that counts.

[SpezialK]

I still haven't received any cards.

Thats where that Candian thing comes in,LMAO!:nuts: Hopefully you will get yours very soon!!:wacko:

Hey Stacey, I got your card today. Cute! Thanks!

[Lindsey Lou]

I should have done that, but I was just lazy and tired the night I signed mine. Hehe

[LuvLachey]

Hey Stacey, I got your card today. Cute! Thanks!


Brittany is Canadian and she got your card!.. I WANT MY CARDS!! WAH!! lol!!! I like getting cards..people don't send cards enough these days. Everything is emailed.

[SpezialK]

^I'm sorry!:cry: Maybe tomorrow!:blink:

[LuvLachey]

yay!! I got 3 cards today! Thank you Les, Rae and Kim!! :)

Rae - I like your address sticker thingy (forget what they're called).

Brittany, I don't get it, you live in Canada and I live in Canada yet I haveb't got your card yet! :)

[Raevengeance]

lol it's an address label ;) I made it myself. Thought they were appropriate since we all love at least one of those 4 bums ;)
Glad you got the card today :)

[LuvLachey]

I'm a dork! (be quiet Kim) of course...an address label! Sorry, it's been a long day:)

[Lindsey Lou]

Lessers~ I got yours today!

[SpezialK]

I'm a dork! (be quiet Kim) of course...an address label! Sorry, it's been a long day:)

I didnt say anything,LMAO!

I got 2 today! Tara & Brittany, thanks!
This was actually pretty fun!:bigsmile:

[Raevengeance]

I got 2 today too - from Stace & Brittany :) Thank you both - the cards you sent are very cute :)

[Leslie]

Tara & Brittany I got both of your cards today. :D Thank you!!

[a7xnsl98d]

Ok, so far, I have Rae's, Les, Stacey, Brittany, Kim, and Tara's. So far......... no one has gotten one from me! I'm sooooooo sorry you all, they will be in the mail on Tuesday when I go out the the doctor's so I can stop by the post office. I had surgery last Tuesday, and haven't felt very alive, please forgive! I've actually had them addressed and ready since before Thanksgiving, but I didn't want to send them that early, and with this surgery, I've put everything on the way-side! Please forgive, but they WILL be mailed. I am sitll alive, I promise!!!

Thanks so much for all the ones I've received, I just feel like a bum because I haven't sent mine!:suspicious:

[Leslie]

It's ok. Take you time. I hope the surgery went well. :)

[SpezialK]

I had surgery last Tuesday, and haven't felt very alive, please forgive!

I hope you are feeling better!:bigsmile:

[a7xnsl98d]

It was a simple 2 hr. sinus surgery that has kicked by azz. I didn't think that recovery would be this bad. This is the first day that I've actually felt like doing more than sleep and mope around drugged. Thanks for the well wishes and forgiveness!

[Raevengeance]

no worries about not having sent the cards yet, Tasha...you need to concentrate on getting better!

Tara, I got your card today - thanks - it was cute :)

[shiloh06]

Hey everyone... I haven't been on NF for a while. School and work has kept me really busy. I just want to thank everyone for the cards!! Thanks to Rae, Tara, Les and Kim! :bigsmile: This was fun, it's really been getting me in the Christmas spirit! I hope everyone liked my cards, working at Hallmark has its perks of looking through cards for hours on end and finding the perfect ones. lol
Tasha- hope you are feeling better and have a speedy recovery! :)
Tara- it is so weird that you just got my card now. you were the last one to get mine (other than Stacey in Australia of course) Canada post:blink:

[Stacey]

*scratches head* Where was my last post in this section?!?!? I have found a couple that I posted last time have gone! Oh well....

Thanks guys for all your cards! :D Tara, I got yours today, Les,Rae, Britts and Kimmy I got yours last week! :cheesy: I LOVE them thanks guys! hehehe

What fuin it is to receive mail from overseas!:) I can't believe Christmas is almost here! I hope you guys liked your cards I send you!

[Raevengeance]

Stace - don't get too confused. The site crashed Friday - so we lost stuff posted after I think it was 12/12 when they had the last backup of the site.

[a7xnsl98d]

Guess what!!!!!! I FINALLY got to the post office today, so everyone's cards were mailed, and should be on the way! Yay for me! Sorry that they're so late, hopefully they make it to their destinations before 2007!!!:nuts:

[SpezialK]

I got your card today Tasha! Cute, Thanks!
ANDREA07-Yours was sent back as "return to sender, refused, unable to forward"! Whats up with that?

[a7xnsl98d]

I got your card today Tasha! Cute, Thanks!


Wow! That was quick, but then, it didn't have far to go to reach you from where I'm at! :blink:

[Leslie]

Tasha, I got your card. Thank you. :D

[SpezialK]

ANDREA07-Yours was sent back as "return to sender, refused, unable to forward"! Whats up with that?

Anyone else have issues with this one?:blink:

[a7xnsl98d]

Tasha, I got your card. Thank you. :D

Yay! Everyone is getting them quick! It looks like it's going MUCH faster than I thought that they would! I'm sorry that they're so late, though! I have all of the ones I've gotten for weeks and they're sitting on the entertainment center 'cause I'm proud of my friends who actually sent theirs early! LOL

You're welcome, Les!

And, Kim, I forgot to send Andrea's, so, nope! I'm not having a problem! *smaking self in head*

[Raevengeance]

Tasha - thanks for the card - it came today :) Very cute :)

And Kim - I didn't have any problems with Andrea's (at least I didn't get the card back)

[SpezialK]

^Hmm? :huh:

[LuvLachey]

Hey Tasha ! I got your card-Thanks!

[a7xnsl98d]

Yay! Most of everyone is getting theirs before the New Year! That at least is good! Eventhough I was late!

Thanks for letting me know!

[SpezialK]

I thought this was fun! Hope we can do it again next year.:toung:

[Raevengeance]

Of course we'll do it again next year - but I'm thinking - it may be easier to have all addresses sent to one person - who makes a list - and then sends that full list to everyone (so you'll only have 1 message with the addresses instead of however many people we get to participate next year)

[a7xnsl98d]

I like this idea. It won't be as confusing, and maybe next year I'll send mine out earlier!:D

[LuvLachey]

good idea Rae=keep that idea in the back of your head until next year.

[SpezialK]

Yes, very good idea!:idea:

[Stacey]

What a sensational idea there Rae!!! I'm so glad we got to send cards to each other! It's fun getting mail!!:) Who's up for it again this year *lol*:cheesy:

[queenbee]

Count me in; sounds like fun. :p

[Raevengeance]

Remember to watch the forums starting in late October probably to get involved in the NF Christmas Card Exchange 2007 :)

[Stacey]

WHOOHOO! hehe can't wait :D Gotta plan new chrissy cards to send out! :cheesy:
