I am interrupting the amazing posts about our Delightful December to report to everyone - or at least to document to myself that the fact that our work Christmas card does not have an overtly religious scene on the front of it does NOT indicate a lack of faith or buying into the commercialization of Christmas. I just sent an email to the whole office staff explaining that bells, are in fact, quite symbolic of ringing (or shouting) the news of the birth of Christ.I'm just bugged that I had to write that e-mail.
Oh the bubble.

you probably should have used Todd's old card where he dressed up his dogs as Mary and Joseph around the manger. They would have loved that.
Well I recently received the Christmas card you and Ross sent. It had some ornaments and wrapped gifts on it and there has been a lot of buzz about that around the water cooler here at my office all week. I also felt the photo was a not so subtle hint that you think you need a new George Foreman Lean Mean Fat Reducing Grilling Machine to make it through the winter. The only thing missing from that card was an ad for Chili's (where you can celebrate any holiday with a delicious Awesome Blossom... heavy on the awesome!) I know that I (and my many co-workers) would like an explanation of how that is not celebrating the commercialization of Christmas.
You are exactly right Toddcat. Ross and I have bought into the commercialization of Christmas. Just the other day I ran up over $5000 in credit card bills in gifts for my husband. After all - now is the time to give - right?
Also an awesome blossom sounds delicious right now. And some bottomless chips!
Boo-ya! I can't wait till we get a tree to put all those gifts under.
I can't imagine what Ross is going to get you for Christmas to match your grandios gifts for him. Also, if I ate the bottomless chips I'd have an endless bottom.
What? Bring me the card I want to see it.
I'm wishing I worked Mondays . . .
