We looove holidays with our family. Stocked fridge, cozy fire in the fireplace, free toilet paper, cable television, and, most importantly, parents picking up the tab when you go out to eat. Yes, we will be taking that dessert menu.
But sometimes, we need a little extra help to get through the holidays. Especially when your parents start telling that story of how you barfed on your crush at prom...again. It's been 5 years. LET IT GO, DAD.
Here are 8 holiday themed shots that will make the embarrassing stories a little more bearable.
