The $10,000 grand prize was awarded to @justmangobrown, depicted in a photo scene as a chef with his pet parent disguised as his cravable burger creation. This year's contest drew more applicants than ever before, with more than 3,400 pet parents submitting photos of their costumed pet in a unique scene.

"Watching the amazing photos roll in is a treat in and of itself," said David Hallisey, Petco vice president, corporate communications. "At Petco, we understand holidays are better with pets and Halloween is no exception. We're already looking forward to next year's entries."

Movies are as much a part of our holiday traditions as opening presents and listening to Mariah Carey's \"All I Want For Christmas Is You\" on repeat for an entire month. Each year we settle in to watch watch Elf, It's a Wonderful Life, and Love Actually, because no matter how many times we see them, they still put us in a Christmas state of mind. Pinpointing the best holiday scenes in Christmas movies is tricky \u2014 deep down, we love every moment of festive goodness that the movies have to offer \u2014 but there's no denying the power of watching Scrooge hoist Tiny Tim in the air, or the sheer joy that is Will Ferrell declaring that Santa sits on a \"throne of lies.\" \nFrom the moments that make us laugh, to the ones that touch our hearts, we believe these are the best holiday scenes that movies have to offer.\n","id":46878975,"type":"gallery","photo_source":"Image Source: Everett Collection","permalink":"https:\/\/www.popsugar.com\/entertainment\/best-holiday-scenes-in-movies-46878975","canonical":"https:\/\/www.popsugar.com\/entertainment\/best-holiday-scenes-in-movies-46878975","share_text":"30 Iconic Holiday Scenes From Your Favorite Christmas Movies","use_tall_image":false,"omit_from_countdown":false,"caption_num":false,"slide_tags":"Holiday EntertainmentHoliday MoviesHolidayChristmasMovies","is_cover":true},"embed_html":"","embed_link":"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/D-7oFlanOLs","share_image":false,"title":"Love Actually","intro_text":false,"body":"Love Actually is full of iconic moments, from Andrew Lincoln's slightly creepy declaration of love to his best friend's wife to Bill Nighy's aging rock star spending Christmas Eve with his manager.

There are so many layers \u2014 the father-son aspect, the innocence of first love, and the Christmas magic that makes it all possible.
