Jason Kelce and wife Kylie Kelce’s Christmas card shoot had gone to the dogs.
Kylie, 31, shared a behind-the-scenes video via Minted, teasing that it was a challenge to gather their "smelly" dogs, Winnie and Baloo, for the photos. In the video from Thursday, November 23, Kylie jokingly mentioned that Baloo is on the "naughty list" of Team Kelce and warned crew members about leaving snacks out for the dog to snatch. She also mentioned the possibility of losing another loaf of bread to Baloo Kelce.
Jason, 36, joined in, commenting that their dog will "eat anything it sees."
"The vets always warn us, 'Hey, don't give him chocolate.' We're not giving it to him, he's finding it himself," joked the Philadelphia Eagles center, with Kylie agreeing that it definitely justified Baloo being labeled as "naughty."
Jason and Kylie, who got married in April 2018, released their yearly holiday card with Minted this month. The couple, along with their daughters Wyatt, 4, Elliotte, 2, and Bennett, 8 months, posed in festive sweaters for the card. Even their two dogs joined in on the fun by wearing reindeer headbands.
Kylie joked in a November 16 Instagram video that preparation for the shoot included making sure the kids had a good breakfast, as they were about to be bribed to participate. She referred to the experience as an "endurance game."
Having already sent out the Christmas cards, Jason is now determined to keep Kylie from finding her gift before their holiday celebration.
"I already have Kylie's gift and I'm pretty sure she's seen it like 15 times," Jason told his brother Travis Kelce on the November 22nd episode of their "New Heights" podcast. "She helps me with my closet organization, so I'm at a loss for where to hide it. But it's a great gift. Really great."
Jason kept the details of his gift for Kylie a secret, simply describing it as "cool" and expressing his excitement for her to open it. As for his three daughters, he admitted to considering gifts featuring characters from Disney Junior shows Dino Ranch and Bluey, knowing that the girls are fans of these characters.
Ensuring that Wyatt, Elliotte, and Bennett have a great time during the festive occasion is reminiscent of how Jason and Travis’ mother, Donna Kelce, used to plan holiday events.
