Christmas Cards for Coaches' Wives
This post is made possible by Basic Invite, invitations and cards that make it beautiful and easy to send cards to your friends and family to commemorate and celebrate those special moments. I've heard from different single friends of mine that they feel like people only have an excuse to take professional photos when they are engaged, married or have a family to photograph.
