We Circle the Roundabout Just for Kicks

_{Welcome to our newest readers in the community — Thanks for being a part} 😄

How many times have y’all driven the roundabout?

We do it just to remind ourselves that it’s actually open!

Yes, it did get smashed less than 48 hours in, but we’ll give the driver the benefit of the doubt.

But we’ll just assume they were too embarrassed to stick around.

On another note, this is your last chance to grab a fun Santa, like this one climbing up a house.

But gotta hurry! 

Ok, now on to The Rundown…

Looking for some holiday photos for your pet?

We joked that our dog would never sit still for them, so we created an app where you can transform your pet into beautiful framers (or just share with the fam).

We had fun creating Pet Murals and would love for you to check it out — your first 2 credits are free! (no credit card required).
