Mom: Should we get a photo of them on Santa's lap? Dad: I guess. Petey: I'm not going to actually sit on his lap. Dad: There's a Precious Memory Package with 25 photo cards, 20 8 x 10s... Mom: Take off your hat, Alice. Petey: I'll stand to one side with an air of quiet reserve. Dad: Six photo mugs, six photo magnets, five photo ornaments, four photo beer koozies, a photo mousepad... Mom: Alice. Alice: No. I like the hat on. Santa's wearing his hat. Dad: All for $49.95. Mom: Your turn, kids! Smile big! Alice: HEY! Mom: Aw, look! Grandma will love these! Dad: Dibs on a beer koozie. Petey: If you'd gotten the Precious Memory Deluxe Package, Grandma would get a tattoo. Alice: Humph.

Yes, Marg.!!! That was funny. Love Alice’s hair in the 4th panel. No wonder she wanted to keep the hat on.

What kind of tattoo?
Ida No over 12 years ago
Petey’s happy, not actually being in the photo, reserved quietly. Not thinking about which body part his face would be tattooed on Grandma…

That’s the worse case of a bad hair day or hat-head I have ever seen.

It was much cuter with Alices’ hat and I’d get one print and get dups anywhere in whatever assortment I wanted (and NO TATs for gma as I AM her!)

Poor Alice. I can sympathize. That’s my hair all winter, every year. Curse the hair fairy!
