The Radfords pose for a snap with Santa at Center Parcs, but there’s so many of them they struggle to fit in the shot

Poor Tillie only got half her face in the picture with Santa

IT'S a festive staple to get a snap with Santa before Christmas.

But when you've got 22 kids, it can be a struggle to get them in the picture.

At least that's the problem the Radford family had when they posed for a picture with the big man.

Mum Sue took to the family's Instagram page to share a barrage of pictures of their weekend away.

"We had such a lovely weekend at center parcs," she wrote in the caption.

"I absolutely love Christmas and making magical memories with the kids - this place was just magical!"

The first picture, taken in Santa's Woodland Workshop, showed Sue and husband Noel posing with their kids and Santa.

And while the family had clearly tried to budge together, poor Tillie was still only half in the frame.

Other snaps showed the brood playing with the elves, enjoying the festive scenery, chowing down on some delicious meals and cosying up with cuddly toys.

People were quick to comment on the pictures, with one writing: "How do you do it?

"To get so many of your children to same pictures?

"I have 3 and it was always a struggle to get family pictures.

"And now I have just 4 grandchildren and never get them in one picture."

"Glad everyone enjoyed their weekend," another added.

"Lots of lovely memories to look back on as a family.

"Beautiful pictures of you all!"

"The kids will remember this for many years to come too," a third commented.

"Was star struck when I saw you all in The Pancake House yesterday," someone else wrote.

"Very well behaved children and Max melted my heart when he tidied all the tables at the end.

"Absolute credit to you both."

"You do brilliant things together as a family!" another added.
