I’m finally buckling down and finishing up my Christmas cards today, so this seemed like the right thing to post.
This is the wonderful world of the nutty-but-loveable Bergeron family, better known as the inspiration behind the hashtag #familygoals. I don’t know about your family, but I seriously doubt I’d ever get mine to play along like these game souls. You know how much I love a good costume, and I have extra admiration for people who are committed to the bit to the degree that this family is.
It makes me think that my besties and I should be taking holiday card photos together. We definitely enjoy a good group costume opportunity. Who knows? Maybe I’m onto something!
For the last 15 years, the Bergerons have been dressing up and heading to their local JC Penney Portrait Studio for the now-infamous photos. What a treat it must be for the poor beleaguered mall photographer when this happy, funny bunch piles in every year!
You can see the photos and read all about the Bergeron family shenanigans on Imgur (which is, it turns out, still a thing!).
All images property of the Bergeron family.

Not me. What is the difference in fun and downright silly? I do know people who would be in for this.

So fun! While I am sure the staff remember them now (and no doubt look forward to their visits), I cannot help but wonder what the reaction was the first couple of times they turned up ready to have their portrait taken.

OMG that top picture! Wow. He could use some pointers from male dancers on what to wear under a pair of tights. Cuz, um, we can tell that he’s circumcised. LOL 😉 😉

I believe he’s stuffed his pants, and the, um, religious identification was deliberate.

Umm, I would like to not copy, but highly i.mitate this in the coming years. Yes I know, it’s about the birth of Christ, good will towards men. Buuuut, if Jesus would laugh, does that count?

I think it does count! I think Jesus must have had a great sense of humor.
