A hilarious twist on the traditional Santa Claus photo makes for a fun holiday card, complete with a cute phrase reminding us that “You’d better not pout, you’d better not cry!” & also adding the year. Two smaller photos on the sides show the children in their natural, happy state. The photo framing can be adjusted if your Santa photo is wider.

This bright turquoise version of our popular Tropical Christmas Card With Two Photos design was custom-tinted to match their fun ocean photos of their island vacation. This design was continued on the inside of their folded card to wish family & friends “an Adventure-Filled New Year!” & to note the location/date of their vacation photos from the front.

Lil’ Duck, while at Grandma’s house this weekend, loves to play with her dog (much to the dog’s dismay, although she is quite tolerant of a toddler wagging her tail, offering her pretend tea, etc). The dog had retreated under the dining room table, probably for a moment of peace, while Lil’ Duck was running his usual circles around the house - hallway, kitchen, entryway, sitting room, great room, dining room, kitchen, hallway, entryway, sitting room, great room, dining room….
Then we hear the little voice proclaiming with great surprise:
“Grandma, there’s a DOG under your table!!!”
