The “Monkey Socky” hats

See no evil. Hear No evil. Speak no evil. The photo card that started it all! As soon as TG received her “Monkey Socky” hat (as she called it) as a gift, Deb knew just what the next year’s card would be. Little did we know it would start a tradition that would endure year after year!

The family photo

Remember the year that Hanukkah was so early that it started the night before Thanksgiving?! We got traditional because Deb was contemplating a portrait biz back then (and still learning the finer points of not editing faces too much).

The year without a photo

2015 was a chaotic year (cancer, anyone?), and we just couldn’t get our act together. Seemed like a good time for a retrospective of all our photo cards up to that point.

Invasion of the Christmas village

Shrinking our selves down to go skating in the Christmas village was a fun time. Even the cat was entertained! 

This was the year we took the images to the next level. Photoshopping genius, if I do say so myself.

We loved this one so much that it hangs on our wall.

Naughty elf shenanigans

Andy has given up his career as a scout elf. Unfortunately, he’s become a bit of a lush and is pretty much useless. We hope he will abandon his love for Tito’s and get on a better path soon.

The year without pants

Well, except for the cat. And since Adam continues to work from home… well…

If you knew my grandmother, Mimi, you know how much she would have loved this one.
