It's not entirely my fault that we don't send out holiday cards.

This weekend we attempted, on two separate days, to take family portraits for a holiday card. Skipper, for reasons known only to her, was not okay with it. She got dressed up in her best holiday outfits on both days (as did Duchess), but when it came time to do the thing, she wigged out. This is from the first attempt. Notice how great we all look. (Okay, Duchess actually looks fine, though the pose does not allow you to see her favorite holiday shirt, featuring a picture of a hamster in a Santa hat, saying "Ho Ho Holidays". I hate it.)












This is the following day, when we tried to get it done earlier, before the post-lunch crankies settled in.
