This time it’s the 8th photo that they do and they keep getting better. We asked if it’s more difficult to come up with new ideas each year and Jonathan says that it’s not the hardest part, “It’s not to come up with raw ideas – but the trick is figuring out how to execute them well and picking the best one. I try to evolve them just a bit each year as the kids get older.”
He added, “This year we thought it would be funny if my wife gave up chasing them…and instead was sitting with a glass of wine watching the chaos. That gag really struck a note with a lot of folks…funny how a small background detail is often what people comment on the most. Another one that gets lots of reactions is the fact that I wear the same sweater each year.”
It’s true, if you go to the Reddit post which now has over 62k upvotes, you’ll find plenty of comments admiring the dad’s dedication of wearing the same Christmas sweater since the first photo in 2014 and cracking up at the mom sitting on the stairs done with chasing the kids who are always up to something.
