On Thursday, Victoria Beckham shared a video on her Instagram account showing just how chaotic it was to wrangle her four children for a simple photo in front of a Christmas tree.

“Never work with kids or animals!!” she joked in the caption.

“It’s a Christmas card guys, this is meant to be a nice thing to do,” she urges her kids as the family’s dogs intrude on the scene.

“It’s a lovely Christmas,” she tells daughter Harper, before yelling at one of her sons, “Pick up a dog!”
