Presidential Christmas Cards

     Bowing to public pressure, President Calvin Coolidge can be credited with having provided the very first Presidential Christmas card in 1927. Handwritten on White House stationery, the President asked that his holiday message be printed in newspapers throughout America so that all could receive his Christmas wishes.

     Documents have suggested that it is actually the First Lady who reigns supreme over most White House Christmas card selections. In 1931 Mrs. Herbert Hoover selected favorite photographic prints from her extensive collection. The card signed by President Hoover featured a picture of him taken in the White House Rose Garden. The message was simply, “A Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.”

     The Roosevelt’s also featured a photograph on their simple card sent in 1942. Taken just outside the Oval Office, the black and white card printed on one side sent wishes for a “happier” New Year.

     In 1961 the Presidential Seal was shown on a background of green with Season’s Greetings printed in gold script below. Tasteful and elegant, the First Lady must have had a hand in selecting this holiday greeting that read, “The President and Mrs. Kennedy Wish you a Blessed Christmas and a Happy New Year.” Read more »

Moving Experience

     I am considering moving to Santa Fe, the weather is great and they have a lot of historical places to visit.But it is surely not an easy task because there are many things to do.For example,I have to pack my clothes and clean my old house.I am not very busy these days ,so I stay in my room and do my best to finish the task.Other than doing these things,finding a good moving company is also very important for me.

     Where can I get the help? In fact,I decided to find some movers to help me a week ago.But my friend ,Alex,says that it is very expensive and he suggests me that I should do the moving by purchasing a moving company.As he is a staff in a moving company,I follow his advcie.

     He says that johnsonstorage.com is the best if I want to Santa Fe.Well,it does not mean it is only professional in the service of  moving to Santa Fe.For example,moving to New Orleans is also available on it.You can check  more information by consulting the website.
