So I want a clever card idea. I have 3 kids ages 14, 10, and 9. It is not exactly easy to get the oldest to participate, but he is in for this idea. I just want to know if people will "get it".
I am putting them in snuggies, maybe the dog too, and then the caption beneath will say "Fleece" Navidad. Too dorky? I think it is funny but don't know if people will understand it.
Be gentle...I don't think there is a tomato throwing smiley!
***********Updated with card*************
So HERE it is! I love it! I love the design...it was designed by KottageOn5th an etsy seller named Daina. She was awesome and I love how simple it is. The dog was outta control and would not cooperate, but I still love it.
Thanks for all your support...I always try so send a funny card but wasn't sure about this one!

I would probably think it was wierd if someone in my family did that, but that could just be my opposition to snuggies talking | |

They'll need to perhaps wear a Santa hat or antlers or something to cover the "Navidad" part, to go with the "fleece" part. Love it!

I think it's a cute idea, too! Maybe decorate the snuggies somehow with a Christmas theme? Or like another poster, said, perhaps antlers or Santa hats? |

If you can't find a snuggie for the dog how about fleece on your kids and antlers on the dog? Totally cute idea!! | |

Love it! If you can't find a snuggie for your dog, could you just drape a small fleece blanket over him?

I will post my results, whether I make my own or find a pre-made card online. Thanks again for all the feedback. I was nervous that people wouldn't understand.
