Holiday cards while deployed? - Happy Holidays

Just curious, if your SO was deployed for the holidays, did you skip holiday cards or not?

I still sent out cards when my husband was deployed, I even got a special one for my husband. I know that deployments are difficult but I think you should try to keep things as normal as possible, to me it made it easier to get through things.

I still sent them to my husband for each holiday that he was deployed

Just to clarify, I mean holiday cards (like Christmas cards) that you send to family, not a card for a certain holiday to send to your SO.

I think I might do this then, and add the pictures we took for OpLove
