Going Postal

While traveling this week with family and looking forward to traveling next week with Ale, I started thinking about going postal! Let me explain: as a child, my parents frequently mailed postcards home when traveling. I would squeal and jump for joy when their postcards arrived (and I still very much enjoy mail - hehe). If I traveled with my parents, I would always carefully select the prettiest postcards for my family and friends. And, I often still buy postcards to send or keep. Call it a habit, but sending and receiving postcards is sooo much fun!!! So, next week, Ale and I will be traveling FAR away (think west coast) to rest and relax before bidding summertime farewell. While there, I thought it would be a hoot to send my family, friends, and blog readers postcards!!! Yes, I want to send YOU a postcard!!! If you want a postcard from moi, please email me your addy at thecompanyshekeeps@gmail.com. I will reveal our travel destination and wish you a wild rest of summertime. Giving mail is just as fun as receiving!!! Cheers to going postal. Xoxo-BLC

PS: Ash, I still have your postcard from Uganda on my refrigerator. Yes, three years later. Many thanks for sending my way and much love!!! :)

Its wonderful to sit and see them. When we travel I love sending cards too!! On our trip to Paris earlier this year ~ I sent them to our friends' children. I'll be emailing you... thank you for brnging back some wonderful memories and for sharing a bit of the world with us , your readers... Safe travels and wishing you a wonderful time...HHL

  3. What a cute idea! My aunt and uncle travel a lot and send me a postcard from every destination. My aunt always picks a postcard that shows something a bit different from the traditional toursity ones. It's so fun to explore a city this way. I hope you and Ale have a great vacay!
