With the year winding down, it's always nice to touch base with your loved ones. Though old school, holiday cards have always been a great way let people connect with family and friends wide and far. A photo and a little life update is all you really need to make grandma or that great-aunt happy! And nowadays with social media, you can even spare the stamps and post that family Christmas message directly to the web instead of via a postcard or letter.
Just like us, celebs totally love the annual Christmas card tradition. Stars adore sharing with their fans, and how can they pass up a festive opportunity to get glammed up with the fam? Even royal family members, Prince William and Kate Middleton, have gotten in on the fun with a 2022 Christmas card.
And while the holidays are all about harmony, Christmas cards can still contain a little family drama. Who's in the portrait and who skipped the photo session are often the topics of discussion. (With that in mind, we're definitely keeping an eye out for the Kardashian Christmas card this year.) Want to see 2022's best celebrity Christmas cards? Check out everyone from Kris Jenner to VP Kamala Harris right here.

Kate and William shared their Christmas card with fans via Twitter on Dec. 13. This year, the family card features the loving couple along with their three children: Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis. Charlotte stands in the middle of the family portrait, holding her brothers' hands. Meanwhile, George, who is looking quite tall these days, holds tight to Prince William, while Louis grips his mom's hand for the shot. The family is dressed quite casually for the gorgeous holiday image.

Today's team of anchors had a great time throwing togethering their “Happy Holidays” message, shared on Twitter. They took inspiration from the 2003 Christmas classic Love Actually in a clip that featured Savannah Guthrie, Hoda Kotb, Craig Melvin, Dylan Dreyer, Carson Daly, Sheinelle Jones, Jenna Bush Hager, Willie Geist, and the rest of Studio 1A showing off giant handwritten cards, a lá Andrew Lincoln's character from the film.
Their collective message said, “The holidays are here/ and so are we / bringing good cheer. Wishing you peace / and joy / love / and laughter / to last the whole year. Thank you / for waking up with us.”
Sadly, longtime co-anchor Al Roker wasn't able to make it for the video. But the team found a cute way to include him. Hoda, Savannah, and Craig held up cutouts of the veteran weatherman, which they carried with love.

Vice President Harris and Second Husband Doug Emhoff gave one young artist the opportunity of a lifetime with their 2022 holiday card. When 10th grader Alex Berko, 15, was tasked to illustrate a wintery rendition of the Second Family's home at the Naval Observatory, he had no idea his design was competing to be the VP's annual Christmas card. He was announced as the winner in Nov. and visited the family for the holidays on Dec. 5, 2022, as reported by People.
The fun didn't stop there for the VP! She also invited a group of Washington D.C.-area students to help her dress her Christmas tree.
