Yay! The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge have released their official Christmas card, which is a photo of the whole family. And the photo wasn’t even taken by Michael Middleton, Carole Middleton, Pippa Middleton or Mario Testino! The photo was taken back in October by Chris Jelf. Jelf posed the Cambridge family on the grounds of Kensington Palace. The only thing that annoys me is that the Cambridges didn’t include poor Lupo in the family portrait. What, is Lupo not a part of the family?!!
Anyway, this is a great family photo, and this should serve as an example to both Will and Kate for which family photos they should release. Some of their previous choices have not been the best. I feel like Kate chose this one because she, George and Charlotte are looking at the camera while William seems to be looking proudly at… George? Is that where his eyes are? The only thing that bugs me is that it looks like Charlotte is magically perched on her mom’s knee with no one holding on to her (in truth, I’m sure Kate’s left hand is holding on to Charlotte, but we just can’t see it).
Meanwhile, the Cambridges also announced today that Prince George will be headed to nursery school early next year. The official statement: “Prince George will begin to attend the Westacre Montessori School Nursery in Norfolk before the end of January.” A spokesperson for the nursery said: “We are looking forward to welcoming George to our nursery where he will get the same special experience as all of our children.” So… he’ll be going to nursery school in Norfolk, not London. I feel like that detail is going to be a big deal in the months to come. I also think that there are going to be a lot of toddlers in Norfolk who are about to get punched by George’s baby fists of doom.

And in case you’re wondering, Prince Charles and the Duchess of Cornwall also released their Christmas card image. It’s a really nice photo of the two of them!
