Ho-Ho-Hold That Pose

It’s the most wonderful time of the year. A time for Santa, fruitcake and those (occasionally awkward) family photos. What if we told you there's a way to upgrade your holiday pics from "yikes" to "wow"? You can by taking your holiday snaps at Grand Central Park. You might even get a reward for your artistry.

During our Picture Perfect Holidays campaign, The Lake House, 1039 Lake House Drive in Conroe, will be open Nov. 3 to Dec. 31 from dawn to dusk for families to use a holiday backdrop worthy of an Instagram takeover. We’re talking holiday lights that twinkle like they’re in a Hallmark movie and a tree canopy that could make even the Grinch crack a smile.

Now, what if that stellar shot could win you a shopping spree? Upload your photos to www.grandcentralparktx.com/picture-perfect and you could be in the running for a $500 gift cardto Target, Living Spaces or Pottery Barn — your choice. Five winners will be announced the week of Jan. 6, 2025 —just in time to take advantage of all those holiday sales.

The contest is open to the public. You can enter as many photos as you like but they must all be as unique as snowflakes.

So, grab your elf hats, matching sweaters and family members and get ready to snap!
