This Year’s Christmas Card: The Yule Kids

If I were sending out Christmas cards this year (and I’m not, so don’t hold your breath), this is the picture I would slap on the front…

sent in by Tammy of Happenings on the Hill
And now…. a Christmas Carol:
Deck the halls with boys and nannies,
Baa-baa-baa-baa-baa, baa-baa-baa-baa.
Throw on makeshift hats from panties,
Baa-baa-baa-baa-baa, baa-baa-baa-baa.
Don we now our smiles and say cheese,
Baa-baa-baa-baa-baa, baa-baa-baa-baa.
Hurry up Mom before we freeze,
Baa-baa-baa-baa-baa, baa-baa-baa-baa.
From all of us here at Nanny Goats in Panties to all you “kids” out there…
We wish you a Merry SITSmas! (because today is a big bloggerama SITSmas card swapping extravaganza party thing where all the gals and a guy named Preston run around the blogosphere like crazy wishing each other a Merry SITSmas).
Also? There’s a big holiday party going on over at SITS, where EVERYONE, SITSta or not, can join in the fun. Prizes are given out every hour all day, so go hit SITS every 60 minutes. I mean, it’s not like it’s a work day or anything, is it?
Also? In between goofing off to win fabulous prizes, you can visit some of the SITS gals I recently met in Vegas:

The R Family Diaries
Mindless Junque

Also? If you haven’t yet entered the NGIP giveaway where you guess how much money is in the jar and the 15 closest guesses wins a copy of the hilarious memoir, Marrying George Clooney, then for the love of all that is holy, go enter now!
Also? I’ll be shutting up about the contest before 11:59pm on Wednesday, December 9, 2009.

  1. LOVE the photograph, and the carole you wrote is fantastic.
    Wishing you a very merry Christmas and a happy new year!

    I keep hoping that the internet is going to make Christmas cards obsolete because I never could get organized enough for that.

    1. Not to mention the outrageous postage from your neck o' the woods!

  3. Adrian says:

    How cute. I love your imaginary children, they look just like you. Merry SITSmas, a day late.

  4. kathcom says:

    You just reminded me I have to send out Xmas cards soon. I wish I had cute little nanny goats on mine. It's hard enough to find ones that don't say “God” or “angel” or “Christmas” since I'm a non-theist. Apparently I just want to celebrate the “season.”

    Merry SITSmas!! Lovely blog.

  6. andi_fisher says:

  7. Merry SITSmas… hope you had a good one! : )

    Oh lord. I'd forgotten all about SITSmas. Probably because I celebrate SITSmukkah.

    (rimshot)

  13. Whitney says:

    The picture is hilarious! Merry SITSmas!

  14. Mad Woman says:

    That's a super cute picture…but the little ditty to accompany it made me giggle.

    Now I'm off to check out SITS. Not because of the prizes extraordinaire, but because you're the third person in an hour that I've seen mention it on a blog. I'm CLEARLY missing out on something.

  15. You think you can really shut up? 🙂

    1. About the contest? Yes. About anything else? Heck no!

  16. Roxane says:

    A very merry SITSmas to you and yours!

  17. WhisperingWriter says:

    I love the Christmas card.

    Merry SITSmas!

  18. Surfie says:

    That photo would make a great card. If you were going to send them. You can always email your Christmas cards! 🙂

    By the way, Zebra had her kids yesterday!! The girl didn't make it, and it was a close call with the boy. They've got him in the house to warm him up and feed him from a bottle while they try to get the momma to nurse him. She doesn't seem to be taking to it naturally yet. Hopefully he'll be fine. I took about a zillion pictures of him this afternoon.

    1. Oh, I hope the little guy does OK. I'd love to see pictures of him if you
      have a chance – I can include him on Zebra and Chocolate's Goat Thing of the
      Day day.

      – Margaret
