Once I check back with Christine who has done it the last couple of years we will give out the details
I know of nobody who is purely Autistic or purely neurotypical. Even God had some Autistic moments, which is why the planets all spin.

We did it two years ago, but not last year since we were so out of it waiting for Briar to come home. Looking forward to doing it this year as a family of 3!!!!!

I will see Christine on Saturday and I'll ask her if she wants to do it again.
It's an enormous amount of work, and very complicated. I'm not sure she will be able to do it now that she has 3 kids. Maybe someone can take over for her this year. I'll see what she says.
For those not familiar, you send your address to Christine. She loads them into a program. Over 100 families participated and not everyone could afford to send out 100 cards. So she broke it down to short lists and long lists. If you only wanted to send out 25 cards, you got 25 names to send to and received 25 cards. If you wanted the big list, you sent 100 and received 100 cards. Bren then took the lists and put them in label format so we could just print out the labels rather than hand writing out the addresses.
The incredible part of this is that you could get Christmas cards from KA families all over the USA. I have had 3 doors filled with Christmas cards from KA's. Since the cards are the picture type, it's incredible.
