Queen Rania of Jordan shared a sweet family photo on Facebook to celebrate the start of the New Year.

"Excited to be starting the New Year countdown," Rania, 45, wrote in Arabic. "With 10 days until the end of the year, I am happy to share our family picture for 2016." The picture was also used for the holiday card.

The photo, which was taken earlier this year, shows (from left): Prince Hashem, 9; Princess Iman, 19; King Abdullah, 53; Rania; Princess Salma, 15, and Crown Prince Hussein, 21. The elegant yet casual portrait was taken on the grounds of the Jordanian royal compound, Al-Maquar, in Amman.
