It's a Merry Happy Day!

There's a saying that goes around at my house on a regular basis:  "If it's old, Mom will like it!"  For the most part, they are right.  Old, vintage, classic however you might want to term it, I usually like it...postcards included.

It's raining, beautiful and amazing rain here in my part of Texas today!  Perfect day for writing cards and letters, drinking coffee or hot cocoa, watching football and spending time with the family!  I hope wherever you are and whatever you're doing today, it makes you happy!

A Merry Christmas-The stockings are hung by the chimney with care.  I'm not sure how old this Christmas Postcard is, only that it required one cent for domestic postage.  New, never used.
