Here ye! Here ye!
I am proud to present to you our 2010 Christmas card!
Haha... just kidding.
My sister had too much fun on Photoshop editing the picture she took and gave us an "unofficial" version. I think this might surpass the "Asian Christmas" picture from last year. My favorite part of this picture is Dexter has turned into a Gremlin with lopsided ears. If the card was to be narrated or accompanied with a letter, this is what it would say:
"Hiiiii y'all! Hope y'all have a Merry Effin' Christmas! Things are a little... different this year, but we're still a-truckin' along. I told Dexter not to jump in them biohazard barrels outside the double wide but he just didn't listen t'me! He turned a lil green, but it matches the tree quite bee-you-ti-fully if you ask me! What a purdy boy! Well, now that we mention it, I can't help but think we've been bathing in that biohazard material. I thought the water smelled funny. My right eye just seems to be a little big and dear ol' Greg's forehead seems to have a mind of its own. That could have also happened with the grease fire when we were trying to fry the turkey during Thanksgiving. I told Greg not to fry it in the baby pool, but he didn't listen! That explains my nose and Greg's forehead.. problems. But after multiple trips back down to Wal-Mart, no lotion has fixed it! Not to mention, we spent so much money trying to clean up the turkey "catasrophe", Greg had to settle for the "bargain" dentures when it was time to go to the dentist. I told him that, like that quote says, 'a smile increases your face value!' So, like I done said, Merry Effin' Christmas and keep on smilin'!!!"
But in all seriousness, here's our for real card!

I have too much fun with these things. I can't wait to send them out! I love addressing envelopes, too. Something about Christmas cards are just so special!
Have y'all sent yours out yet? I'd love to see your cards!

I can't wait for them to come in the mail! I am not posting the pic on my blog because some family members follow me, and I don't want them to see the final version, I will certainly share after Christmas though!!
I love Dexter's outfit! I love dressing up the Vadster, she hates it. I had her a lovely Christmas collar last year, she looked like such a dork. My mission is to find a sweater for Christmas like the Halloween one.
Beautiful cards, Meg! I was a little afraid that your cat had turned green for a moment there. :)
Very cute! We are sending our cards out next week after we find out the gender of the baby. We already have them pretty much made though - we just have to add a picture of the baby. And I already wrote the Xmas letter (I always write a Christmas letter to accompany the card/picture - and my husband makes the card/picture). I've also already addressed and stamped the cards.
And I will certainly put it up on my blog as a blog post. The card is going to rock!
Hahahaha I am laughing out loud right now, that's got to be the best photo and message ever! I dare you to send out the first version!!!!!!!!!!!
beautiful legit christmas card and the joke one-hysterical. i think to keep your options open is an wise idea :)

Bahahaha I love playing around with photo editing too, but the real photographs are gorge!!

Your sister is crazy!
I ordered mine today. I think it was the best deal I have gotten all year. I got 60 cards, 2 sheets of return labels and 3 pages of wallets of PD's Santa picture for $15. I some how had a influx of Shutterfly codes and a $20 gift card.
Have fun in Boston. Be sure to tell the pilot not to screw up!
So cute! I love it! Your little family is adorable.
I need to get on top of my Christmas card. We haven't even taken the pictures yet...yikes!!!!
