Thanks for the picture, very nice. Donna
Donna, that's something I've never understood about snuggies. My DH and I used to make fun of the commercials constantly, especially the part about wearing them to sporting events. We thought that was hilarious! And we'd always say the same things during the commercials. My DH would always say, "Why not just wear a robe?". And I'd always say, "Wouldn't your back be cold?" I guess the point is that a snuggie is like a blanket that you drape on yourself while sitting in a chair or on the couch, but because a snuggie has sleeves, your hands are free to hold a book, the remote, or whatever.
We laughed at snuggies so much that recently, when we saw snuggies for dogs at WalMart, my DH took a pic of them with his cell phone to show his friends.
Now I have to confess. After making fun of snuggies for so long, I found myself wearing one on Christmas Day. My DD's mother-in-law gave snuggies to my daughter and granddaughters for Christmas. My DD and SIL are keeping the heat down in their home and I didn't realize it would be so cold and didn't dress warm enough. I was very glad to wear my daughter's snuggie! :-D However, I had to put a blanket on my back as well. :wink:
Bepeep, having said all that, I do want to say I love the pic of your family members wearing their snuggies. I'm so glad you posted it. Everyone looks like they're having a great time! I also think your fabric choices are perfect.
