Thanks to all the bunnies who participated in the Holiday Card Exchange! It was a lot of fun and I plan to set this up again next year. I hope you all enjoyed it as much as I did. : )

Thank you so much for organizing it! This is the first time in a while it's been so much fun getting the mail, and I put all the cards up on the inside of my front door, so it's nice to get warm holiday bunny wishes every time I leave the apartment. It's like y'all are giving me the strength I need to face the outside world.

Yes, thanks for organising it. I was really touched by the cards (which, thanks to airmail, are still turning up - two this morning!). Several were home made, one had Origami in it, one a tree ornament thingy and a couple even referenced posts that I'd made here. But all were very gratefully received and are still looking good in my flat :)

I not only enjoyed the cards but by their sheer amount it made it seem like I have tons of friends who dig bunnies!

I loved it -- I would've only gotten a couple of cards otherwise. Thanks!

Yes, the cards have been great. I have them all hung up on ribbons in my dining room and everyone who comes over thinks I am actually popular! ;-) It's wonderful.

Thanks to you all! This is the first time in my adult life that I've recieved Christmas cards. My mantle is covered with them.

It was great! I was on vacation from the 7th to the 17th and I had a whole stack waiting for me when I came home. Is it too early to think about sending valentines? Gold stars for those who send the little ones the grade school kids get!

This was such an awesome idea, and it was so great finding actual stuff for me in the mail. I ended up running out of cards, which never happened in previous years, so I didn't get to send to everyone as originally planned. I'd totally do a Valentine's Day exchange!

Thanks for organizing this, sisterhavana! It was great to add fresh names to my list. And thank you bunnies who sent me cards and wrote friendly notes and drew funny pictures--it was very cheery and much appreciated!

Thank you, sisterhavana! Echoing everyone here who said what fun it was opening up the mail every day.

(and mr. 'pode thanks those of you who addressed your cards to him as well - he thought it was super-cute)

although he may not have used the words "super-cute"

YAAAy it was ultra fun, we must do it again next year.

It was awesome, SisterHavana! We gotta do it again.
