#holiday-cards

Every year, I tape all the Christmas cards I receive to the interior side of my front door. As I walk past my entryway, it's nice to see the smiling faces of friends and family. Sometimes I re-read the little updates some people include. Plus, the colorful designs make the house feel a little more festive. But while most people recycle the cards when the season is over, I carefully untape each card and file them away.

Massachusetts mom Jillian Lynch was grocery shopping at Trader Joe's when she got a surprising text from her husband Ryan about their family Christmas card photo. Ryan sent a screenshot of the card featuring their three kids - Kennedy, 11, Danny 10, and Macie, 8 - and the family dog, Boss. Boss joined the family in January, so it was his first Christmas card. And boy, is it a memorable introduction because Boss was ... aroused.

I love a good Christmas card, which means as a reviewer, I had one question heading into the holiday season: Who prints the best holiday photo cards? Like many people, I gravitate toward photo designs to share a photo of my family with my loved ones. It's especially handy since I don't post my son's face to social media, so for some family members, it's a rare way to see what my son looks like now.
