I will blog for free Christmas Cards from Shutterfly

Finally, it looks like my blog is going to pay off. I'm participating in Shutterfly's 50 Free Christmas Cards Promotion. If you have a blog you can too. Here is my shameless promotion for Shutterfly. Over the years Danielle has tastefully used our digital pictures to create photo books, greeting cards, and calendars. A few months ago I saw how special a personalized calendar was to Danielle's grandma. This summer our family was visiting "Great Grandma" from out of state. She was proudly displaying in her living room her calendar from 2008, the month was correct but year was a bit off. Great Grandma loves seeing bright and colorful pictures of her kids, grand kids, and great grand kids. Our family draws names for Christmas thus the two year gap in calendars, but this year we will make sure that she gets a new Shutterfly calendar from us.

Shutterfly also has some very neat products out this year just in time for Christmas. My favorites are:

• Professional Looking Christmas Cards,
• Beautifully simple desk calendars for work
• Stunning birthday cards

We look forward to sending our these photo cards to share a smile with our family around the country and around the world.

Thanksgiving 2010

This year we traveled to Grandma House in Three Rivers, Michigan and then to Niles to spend a few days with my parents. The kids loved being with the grandparents.

Fall 2010 Bike Hike 81 Miles

Brian and I did our longest ride ever. It was a very warm Novemeber day, with a high of 71F. The forecast was for the wind to be out of the south, but ended up being out of the South West, which made for a delightful ride out to London and a exhausting ride back home.
