The royal family is getting into the Christmas spirit.

On Wednesday, via their official Twitter account, Kate Middleton and Prince William shared a photo of their family that will be featured on their Christmas card.

In the sweet pic, the Duke and Duchess, both 38, hold their three children -- George, 7, Charlotte, 5, and Louis, 2 -- as they sit on a hay bale, smiling. Louis, in particular, wears a massive grin.

Along with the photo came a brief message.

"The Duke and Duchess are delighted to share a new image of their family, which features on their Christmas card this year," the tweet read.

The note concluded with a Christmas tree emoji and offered credit for the photo to photographer Matt Porteous.

The photographer also shared the image on his own Instagram and posted a brief quote.

"It was an honour to photograph The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge and their family," he wrote. "Capturing the fun and relaxed moments between such a wonderful family is always a true privilege."
