The Tucker Family! Wooohooo!

The Tucker family is from Orange County.
They live in a Country Club with a golf course and they have two tiny yippee dogs running around the house constantly.
Tami and George are both psychologists and love the G.O.P.
Tami plays tennis almost every morning and George golfs whenever he gets the chance.

Now, because of the stigma surrounding southern California country club type people, I know you might think that sounds like a typical Orange County family......

but they are the sweetest, most down to earth, NORMAL people you will ever meet. Not at all like the O.C. is portrayed on T.V.

However, they are not what you would call a "traditional" family either.

George always says that the only thing him and Tami make for dinner are reservations!

So, they wanted their Christmas pictures and their Christmas card to reflect the opposite of the way they are.

We came up with a 1950's, Mother/housewife/cook/cleaner/wears her pearls while doing it all, Father comes home after work and reads the paper, smokes his pipe and kicks his feet up with a scotch on the rocks while Daughter plays piano in her plaid school girl skirt and Son obediently plays chess until dinner is served.

That's exactly what we got. And I think we did it splendidly.

However, after all was said and done, they aren't much different from that old time traditional family because their values and family togetherness are just the same as the "Beaver Cleavers".

Anyway, I hope you all enjoy!
