I mailed them to all our family and friends and got some feedback that they were appreciated. I like sending mail, and it's a good way to give everyone your new address. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/weve-moved-announcements#post-2606659 Thu, 18 Aug 2016 17:58:11 +0000 Boogs 2606659@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We did when we bought our house. Now if we moved again, I would probably just send a group text or email. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/weve-moved-announcements#post-2606608 Thu, 18 Aug 2016 17:18:12 +0000 avivoca 2606608@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I always do. I design them myself. We moved a lot within a short period of time though so it was warranted. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/weve-moved-announcements#post-2606607 Thu, 18 Aug 2016 17:15:08 +0000 Shantuck 2606607@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We moved a year ago last in June and we just included it on the back of our annual Christmas card. We had a picture of us sitting in front of the new house with a little blurb about how we moved in June and our new address was blah, blah, blah.... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/weve-moved-announcements#post-2606564 Thu, 18 Aug 2016 16:03:51 +0000 birdofafeather 2606564@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i sent out an email with the digital announcement. we moved beginning of summer </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/weve-moved-announcements#post-2606444 Thu, 18 Aug 2016 14:43:33 +0000 gingerbebe 2606444@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We sent we have moved photo cards from Costco because they were super cheap. Usually that gets people to stick us on their fridge and they actually remember to change our address in their books than an email. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/weve-moved-announcements#post-2606439 Thu, 18 Aug 2016 14:41:38 +0000 Foodnerd81 2606439@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Truth Bombs: hahaha I know!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/weve-moved-announcements#post-2606420 Thu, 18 Aug 2016 14:30:51 +0000 Truth Bombs 2606420@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Foodnerd81: Who thought it was a good idea to use the name "the Duggers" on the sample card?? :silly: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/weve-moved-announcements#post-2606409 Thu, 18 Aug 2016 14:28:02 +0000 BSB 2606409@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, we sent them when we last moved and I plan to when we move again. Oh, we don't move very often. I think we stayed at our apt for 5 years. If I was going into temporary housing, I wouldn't send it out, but if I bought a house or move into an new apartment, I would re-send. The idea of moving every year is not something I would ever do (bearing any unforseen events), so most of our moves are long term. </p> <p>When I receive them from family or friends, I either hang it up on my refrigerator or place it in my address book so I can update it. </p> <p>Email gets lost. I think a card is a great reminder. If you can afford it, though. Stamps get pretty expensive but I enjoy sending mail out. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/weve-moved-announcements#post-2606397 Thu, 18 Aug 2016 14:21:16 +0000 KayKay 2606397@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have done paperless post announcements for our last 2 moves -- they have some basic/free ones, where I could put a cute pic of the kids or house or whatever, and then (most importantly) our new address. But I didn't have to deal with actually sending anything or postage. Super easy! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/weve-moved-announcements#post-2606396 Thu, 18 Aug 2016 14:20:35 +0000 Jess1483 2606396@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We moved at Christmas, and included the new address on those cards. If we weren't already doing cards, i would have done an email. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/weve-moved-announcements#post-2606389 Thu, 18 Aug 2016 14:18:46 +0000 Foodnerd81 2606389@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mediagirl: of course I've thought about this. :silly:<br /> I think I will send out a Christmas card/ moving announcement the weekend of thanksgiving, so people have our new address before they send out Christmas cards. I'm thinking something like this one maybe. I'll email close friends and family with the new address after the move.</p> <p>[attach=2307/16/oc4dna.600x462.image.jpeg] </p> [attach=2307/16/oc4dpe.338x600.image.png] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/weve-moved-announcements#post-2606386 Thu, 18 Aug 2016 14:18:06 +0000 Truth Bombs 2606386@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We sent out a moving announcement card. We took a pic of our LO standing on the front porch and then made a card on shutterfly. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/weve-moved-announcements#post-2606385 Thu, 18 Aug 2016 14:17:39 +0000 youboots 2606385@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We did. We didn't do it when we moved apartments almost yearly but when we bought our house it seemed relevant. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/weve-moved-announcements#post-2606382 Thu, 18 Aug 2016 14:15:51 +0000 MaryM 2606382@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I thought about doing postcards through vistaprint when we moved, but then we suddenly had too much going on for me to actually get it done. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/weve-moved-announcements#post-2606370 Thu, 18 Aug 2016 14:09:47 +0000 mediagirl 2606370@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>if you don't have any other big announcements to go along with your move (ie: new baby on the way, new baby born recently), do you send out "we have moved" cards? Or do you send an email to friends and family? </p> <p>I think we are going to do an email this time and attach a picture of the new house. I feel like we should do something, though. </p>
