Can anyone help me read this ? ,I'm normally quite good but I can make put the word very and ever and that's about it . Thanks

Welcome to RootsChat - it is rather quirky handwriting, isn't it.
At the top it's 'from M...' but I can't work out the name; after that I see it as:
Wishing yourself and
your husband and family
a very pleasant Xmas and
New Year. this is my face
did you ever see me so fat
with love to you all
-
Could it be from Anne? Only because I think the last letter is an 'e'. Mae came to mind at first but wasn't sure about an 'a' in the middle.

It might be from Annie? There is a dot there for the 'i' but then there aren't enough uprights left for 2 'n's. Difficult!

Looking at how the writer has written the 'n' in husband and pleasant -
I would say the name at the top has a double nn after a looped capital A (like a larger lowercase a) then there appears to be an i with a dot off to the side and then a squiggled e...... ;D
So I think the sender is Annie.
Looby :)
