It has always been just a pic of the kids and dog and usually signed as the (insert last name hear)'s. So what do I do this year?

a) Do not send any cards out this year.
b) Send a greeting card with a pic of the kids.
c) Send a greeting card with a pic of me and the kids.
d) Same as previous years:kids and dog

If I send out the cards, how should the cards be signed? Same as last year?
Yep. "usually signed as the (insert last name hear)'s"


In the past, we would send out the cards to his friends, my friends, mutual friends, his family, and my family. Who should I send them to this year?
Consider you sending them to your friends and relatives, etc. and giving H his own supply to send to his.

Should I tell H that I am doing this before I mail them out?
If you agree with my suggestions or something similar, sure, tell him what you're doing first. What/if he does with his supply re: his family, friends, co-workers, etc. is up to him. He's a big boy. Don't be his Christmas Card Mama this year. Buying him his own supply is generous and magnanimous enough, imho
