CHRISTMAS ELVIS
Yes, we are Elvis fans and celebrate his birthday every year with peanut butter & banana sandwiches and a cake. But that is not the reason there is an Elvis card.
Each year, as we amp ourselves up to tackle the new card, we start by laying out all the old ones on the table to get our brains in the right place. I told Keith I was tired of green and red and thought the collection needed a blue card. I was thinking along the lines of Paul Bunyan and Babe the Blue Ox (that is so happening if we live long enough), but then Keith suggested Blue Christmas, the classic Elvis hit. And here we are with a blue card. (I adore being married to this man).
Once a month, I put on a candlelight dinner and dancing in the dining room with the good china and silver. At some point, Elvis will croon “Love Me Tender” and Keith will sing-along in my ear as we dance. This card captures that feeling in my heart. Our love feels like a fairy tale sometimes.
