I messed up my holiday cards....help!
Im an IDIOT! This is what happens when you do things too quickly...
instead of saying
happy holidays
The xxxx family
Jen, talia, etc...
it says
Happy Holidays
xxx(last name)
Jen, Talia, etc....
I somehow missed that I should had written The XXXXX's - I thought it already said The XXX family and I was just punching in the name.
it looks and sounds stupid and I spent over $100 on them so please tell me that the pic of my daughter is soooo cute that no one will notice my wording blunder.

Barb you are so funny...thanks for making me smile.
Here is the pic...
juuuuuust kidding...just fell on this pic while looking for the real one and it cracked me up.
ANYWAY - here is the REAL pic (her hair isn't much different these day haha)
I would show you the whole card but I dont know how to get it to save from tinyprints.

Re: I messed up my holiday cards....help!
The cuteness of the photo makes up for the typo. 
My advice? You spent $100 - send them out and stop thinking about it.

Re: I messed up my holiday cards....help!
I would definitely not get them redone. If it really really really bothers you, you could take a Sharpie that matches the card and write The in front and Family in back in script. I'm sure it would look cute. The pic is adorably capable of overshadowing the gaff.

I think she was using the XXX's instead of typing her real last name here.

Re: I messed up my holiday cards....help!
If you ordered them from a website, can you contact them to correct the mistake. I had a typo on my wedding thank-you's from Shutterfly and they were able to cancel my order so that I could reorder them.

I do not think it is a big deal and anyone who says something needs to find something else to occupy their time

Re: I messed up my holiday cards....help!
I would call whomever you ordered them from. I ordered Jack's announcements from winkflash and the pic came out soooo dark (but didn't look that way on my computer screen). When I got them, I called, really upset. They told me...no problem, we have a satisfaction guarantee. Fix the coloring and resubmit the pic. They sent me a whole new batch of cards at no additional cost. And I didn't even have to send the other ones back. Very stand up. Who knows....maybe where ever you ordered from will do that too.
Good luck
And OMG she got soooo big and gorgeous
and Racheeee, get some sleep girl LOL xxxxxx

Re: I messed up my holiday cards....help!
I don't think it's a big deal at all - and can promise you that no one will even notice! We get so many cards in the mail I just look at the adorable pictures - and your picture is ADORABLE!
Before you send them out though I would try to call where you ordered them from and explain the mistake - they just may send you corrected ones!

Re: I messed up my holiday cards....help!
That first picture had me cracking up!! She always had such great hair--from day 1!!!
Anyway, I agree with everyone else...don't stress about the name--Talia's too gorgeous to focus on anything else on that card!

Re: I messed up my holiday cards....help!
Some people will notice (I can't lie and say no one will notice ) ... but they'll get over it very quickly! 
The picture is absolutely adorable!!
Also, just an idea if it REALLY bothers you, but maybe you can use a Sharpie to write "The" and add the 's' in a scripty handwriting ... and it can look all artistic or something!
