Holiday Card Tip

It's holiday card time! WOO! 

I thought I would post a helpful grammar tip 

for those of you sending out holiday cards! :)

When typing out your last names, 

let's all remember that there are no apostrophes in last names. ;) 

How to write your last name on a holiday card:

The Kleins

The Joneses

The Smiths

The Andersons

The Littles

The Linzes

NOT:

The Klein's

The Jones's

The Smith's

The Anderson's

The Little's

The Linz's

You simply add "es" or "s" to the end of your name. 

Simple as that. :) 

Why? 

Because your last name is plural (more than one of something/someone), 

not possessive (something belonging to something/someone).
Even if you were to write your last name as a possessive (the Kleins' cat), 

you would still add the "s" and *then* the apostrophe. :) 

If you don't like the "look" of it, you can simply say:

The Klein Family

The Jones Family

The Smith Family

The Anderson Family

The Little Family

The Linz Family

If you're not sure whether to add an "s" or an "es," 

you can Google it, 

or email/leave me a comment,

and I'd be happy to help! :)

Happy Holidays! :)
