We have done matching pajamas in the past but this year I
wanted to do something different on Christmas Day. I wanted to have a little
more fun, so I decided that we were all going to get ugly Christmas sweaters. UglyChristmasSweater.com
was kind enough to sponsor us and let us each pick out our own. We may or may
not have went a little crazy.
Back in the day Christmas sweaters were the not so fun
ones that our parents made us wear and they probably itched. Now, we want to
wear them. We want to show them off. It’s fun, there are contests at schools,
at work. The crazier the better. Our grandmas were onto something way back
then. UglyChristmasSweater.com turned that concept of the “grandma” sweater and
kicked it up a few notches and here we are today. Now we have and explosion of
sweaters in almost every design you can think of. Most are family friendly and
some well not so much. I will focus on the ones that are.
There are 5 of us in the house, and one is little, but I
did manage to order an XS. While it is a bit large on her, we made it work as
we didn’t want to leave her out.
This is my pick as how could I not, I mean who doesn’t
love the movie A Christmas Story? A lamp sweater is not complete without it
lighting up. It’s not just white lights though, they do flash LED which is
pretty cool. Due to the lights, do not machine wash this, steam clean only!
This was Mya’s pick, as Elf is one of her
favorite Christmas movies. Once she saw this option, she knew this was the one
she had to have. Pretty straight forward on this. You have Elf and the famous
line he says about Santa.
Star Wars Jedi Yoda Light Up LED
Canon loves
Star wars so I wasn’t surprised when he picked this one out. Yoda’s cane lights
up with LED lights. Don’t machine wash this. This is perfect for any kid or
adult as well.
Tree Rex Light Up T-Rex
Fallon’s
nickname is Ducky from Land before Times hence the dino so we had to go with
this one for her. The fact that the LED lights flash make it even better. I love
that you can get it in a size XS up to a 4X so that pretty much anyone of any age
can wear this. It’s just too cute.
Jack in the Box Santa Claus 3D
Dan picked this
one and it’s fantastic. Yes, this is a jack in the box, and it does work. It’s
a little heavy but the coolness of it takes that away. I had to take a little
video to share with you how it works.
Take a look around
the site and see which sweater you guys want and order some for your family. Which
is your favorite from our bunch?
Ok, I would love to have the Tree Rex sweater! There are some ugly sweaters that I would love to get for our family. They would make for a great funny holiday photo!

ReplyDeleteIn a family with not many traditions due to distance, "ugly sweaters" may become our new tradition. The jack-in-the-box one just makes me giggle and I would like to see my grandson wear that one. These sweaters can be worn year after year, traded, or collected. Love them! Sadly, I have NEVER owned an ugly Christmas sweater. It's about that time!
