Hi Bees

Im working on thank you notes right now and I am having the worst time writing them for people I have not met (family friends of parents or FI's parents)

Anyone else have trouble with this?!

I just tried to be generic.

Ex. Thank you for the toaster. We will get a lot of use out of it with our weekly Sunday breakfasts. Thank you again.

I had a harder time with people who I didn't know as well too!

I just put

Name,

Thank you so much for __________ we look forward to using it for _____________. Thank you for making our house more of a home!

With love & thanks,

_______________

or for $$ gifts I put "Thank you so much for your generous gift. We are saving for a home and it means a lot to us that your gift will be part of that...." or something to that effect.

I had a couple like that... I struggled with how to greet them in the card. (Mr. and Mrs. or first names?!). I ran into this with some of my husband's distant family members who I hadn't met prior to the wedding. After getting his input on that... I just honestly thanked them for whatever they were kind enough to give us!
