To do ... or ... Not to do?

That is the question... that I've been asking myself the last few days in regard to Christmas Cards. An older, wiser sister of mine (Amy, of course) said that now that I'm married, its THE thing to do. A Holiday MUST!
I'M TORN!!!!
I have a few opinions that have been developing in my insignificant psyche.
Here's a tiny glimpse at my thought process:
*Amy's right (hard to believe, I know)! I am "all grown up" now, and should take responsibility and do what I'm supposed to do...
BUT...
*We sent out Wedding Announcements, Thank You's, and had pictures all over the place for the Wedding. I think people may get sick of us.
PLUS...
*We don't have kids or any exciting messages to share with anyone other than we are disgustingly in love. Everyone knows we got married this year; what else really matters?
AND...
*We (I) have a blog, and most meaningful experiences we've had have been posted there (here), along with pictures.
ALTHOUGH...
*Christmas cards are always fun to get, and could be a fun thing to send out each year, and a tradition that I can't back out of in the years to come.
SO...
*A friend of mine mentioned doing E-cards. Would this really suffice or will they just go into spam mail, or not even seen in some mailboxes?
Christmas is officially 2 weeks away.
I'm STILL torn.

Wait until next year!(my vote) Don't give in to the "It's in" idea. Do what you think is right for you.

I'm with your dad, I think you can wait a year.

I'm not sending any out. It must not be the "in".

I think Christmas cards are great fun to receive. They are sort of fun to do. We didn't do one last year, but we're doing one this year. I debated on doing them like you, especially with a blog. But, there are a number of people I know who don't read my blog, and don't know what we've been doing this year. It's a good way to keep in touch with people you normally don't. those are my thoughts
