What's in a name?

Yesterday we got our first batch of Christmas cards from family and friends. It helped us get into the Christmas spirit more as it doesn't seem very Christmasy living here with no snow! Anyway I was amused by the fact that no one properly addressed our names on the envelopes. People addressed it to either Mr. and Mrs. Michael Shires or Michael and Darcy Shires. Unfortunately people have forgotten that Darcy did not change her name! I don't think that Darcy minded too much about the snafus. But I recall just about everybody asking us at the wedding if Darcy was going to change her name and we said no. We sent Christmas cards to people and addressed ourselves in the sender corner of the envelopes as either Sharman & Shires or Shires & Sharman. Oh well, it's not a big deal in the greater scheme of things....
