3rd Annual Christmas Card Poll

It has become tradition. Printed ballots and a pile of pens were in the middle of the dining room table and we were ready to cast our votes. It took us a while this year. Some deliberated long and hard over their favorites. And we had to revote two or three times on some categories because we didn't have clear winnters. But alas, the ballots were tallied and here are the poll results (as always, you should be able to click on them for larger images with better detail, although I will say, some of these scans just don't do the cards justice):

Very first card received - from Cheryl and Susan Bailey

Prettiest Card - from Jim and Ruth Byrd

Cutest Card - from Bob and Louise Smith (Sara's mom's brother and sister-in-law)

Best Photo - from John Mark, Julie, Evan, Katelyn and Brooklyn Sproles

Most Creative - from Tony, Barb, Caleb, Devon and Danika Askew (card made by Barb, Sara's sister)

Ringing in the New Year










...6 adults, 8 kids, pizza, KFC coleslaw, creamy taco, chips, brownies, chocolate covered pretzels, a counter full of 2 liters, two rounds of Masterpiece, three Max Lucado children's DVDs, a game of Rat and lots of noise when 2008 arrived.


Thanks, Jerry and Janiece, for your hospitality (I did not have a clue that you'd just arrived home from MI a measly two hours before we got there!) And thanks, Dave and Lynette, for spending the evening with us noisy ones. We had a great time!
