~SENT IN WORK RELATED CARDS~

Top Ten Highlights of 2004:


#10: Seeing “Nina”, the Christopher Columbus ship.

#9: Going to the Kennedy Space Center.

#8: Living through two hurricanes, back to back.

#7: Seeing Don Mitchell as a Pink Easter Bunny!

#6: Cassie’s birthday party at Ponce Landing.

#5: Taking Cassie to Disney World!

#4: Visiting Michigan/having friends visit us.

#3: Attending all the Holiday events in St. Augustine.

#2: Having our family featured in a local newspaper.

#1: Seeing Cassie’s photo in Parent’s Magazine!
***

We have truly enjoyed being at Ponce Landing and working with and for so many very nice folks. Not only has Ponce Landing been a wonderful working experience, it has been a caring, family-like one as well. May the New Year be prosperous and harmonious for all!

Sincerely,

Mike, Sandy and Cassie

New Question:
I am addressing Christmas cards. Our neighbors are a family of 4. A mom, dad and 2 kids. Only one of the kid's has the parent's last name. The other kid is the mom's from a previous marriage and he had a different last name. How should I address the envelope. (Let's say the parents' last name is "Johnson" and the one kids' last name is "Porter.")

"Mr & Mrs Neighbors and Family"

"Neighbor Family"

"Joe and Sue Neighbor and Family"

I would think any of those would work :-)

So I could do "The Johnson Family" even though the one kid is a "Porter"?

I don't know...maybe the third would be best but I would assume a family is kind of based on the parents names- they're still a family. Probably the least possibly offensive (and I doubt any would be really offensive) would be

Bob and Sue Johnson and Family

That would include anyone in their family home.

Julieboo, I am in that situation. Texannie did have the perfect solution, because even though my children all feel part of the same family, their own name remains important to them. When we have received mail addressed to "Our Family", my two sons who have a different last name always notice and comment.

Fondly
Wappy

Do you think it is too late to send a Christmas card to someone who was missed?

Nope, better late than never! Turn it more to wishes for a Happy New Year and you're all set...
