december 12.junk mail

This is the time of year when opening up the mail is fun - you know, not the usual bills but all of the wonderful Holiday greetings that are sent your way from loved ones. We have received quite a few already (forgive us, we are still working on ours - it may turn into a New Year's card) but yesterday I knew we were in trouble when I saw no return address and a postmark from Jacksonville, FL. My Mother's cousin Kathi and her husband Gene have been such wonderful family members to keep in touch with. Kathi, however, is unfortunately a Gators fan and for those of you who do not know the Gators are playing our beloved BUCKEYES for the National Championship. So Kathi thought it would be really cute to send this junk mail to all of us Buckeyes fans:



Of course none of us know how the game is going to turn out on the 8th of January. We can however speculate and I have this message for Kathi and her Gators:



Thank you for the greeting Kathi and Gene (aren't you a Bulldog fan Gene??? - how dare you support another team) even though it is by far the ugliest one we have ever received!!
