“This is my family in the 90’s. We lived in Alaska at the time, so I guess my
parents thought our relatives would like to see us as Eskimos.”

SICK.
Sarah Palins’ Extended family!!
ROFL!!!!! But could they see Russia from their house!
You always look at these and don’t expect to see anyone you know. Imagine my surprise when I scrolled down to see my best friend and neighbor from middle school. Atleast you were living in Alaska at the time. Would have been really awkward if you were living down south.
Very true, Kristen, very true.
HAHAHA!! I also lived in Alaska in the mid 90’s and if this was taken sometime around 1996, 1997 in Anchorage, I think I know where it was taken at!!! I worked in the mall that they used to take these “sled dog” pictures. Too funny!
haha, I live in Alaska now and I think everyone has a picture of a dog sled mine was at alyeska
They still do these at the Anchorage Market in the summer. I was thinking about it. Not so much any more ..lol
Dad looks like a professor I work with. I’ll never see him the same way again.
So THAT’s what Alaskans look like…
No, it’s not.
HA! HA! HA! HA! Beautiful response.
When they put up the hoods are they aardvarks, like in “Better Off Dead”? That would be cool.
That’s too funny!!
I want my two dollars
Go that way really fast. When something gets in your way, turn!
Screw PETA! I didn’t just go through 13 million years of evolution, fight and struggle to get on top of the food chain to become a vegetarian.
unfortunately YOU apparently traded intelligence for alleged food chain dominance.. and regarding that, you’re far from the top of the food chain genius
Grrrr
You can all stop bickering now that I, the food chain genius, have arrived. I will also personally vouch for the whereabouts of Ida during this whole exchange.
Now, move along…
Yes, Ida, tell us, when was the last time you personally hunted and killed your dinner, outside of your local Applebee’s?
[Disclaimer: I am a carnivore, but don't pretend to like the way the meat gets to my plate. But I eat it, and enjoy it anyway. I'm conflicted.]
Yeah, Ida! How dare you come on a serious website like this and make a joke!!
You’re right Steph. I’m usually right there with you, poking fun at those who are getting too serious here. Looking at this exchange now, I just didn’t recognize that Ida was making a joke. My apologies
Won’t happen again…
HA Ha HA! That should have been the caption!!!
btw…I think a pre-requisite for going on this site is a sense of humor!
13 million years, huh? Willard Scott needs to hear about you.
BTW, I’d bet the average adult lion or bear on its *worst* day is still higher on the food chain than most of us…
Yuck, fur.
Agreed, yuck. I actually have a PET fox, so stuff like this just makes me feel sick to my stomach.
Holy squirrel hides, the dad is killing me. But, you do need to stay warm on your toboggan at olan mills.
All I have to say is thank God THIS family isn’t just wearing leaves!
Now that would be awkward.
I am a fly fisherman and i tie my own flies, They are wearing a fortune in fly tying material.
OMG!!!
So this is what the neighbors did to our cats!!! I KNEW IT!!!
Poor Fluffy! Poor Zippy!
Ewwww… it looks like Mittens is now actually a pair of… oh dear…
Someone could make a couple of nice crossbows out of that dogsled.
How much wood could a wood chuck chuck if a wood chuck could chuck wood?
I’m not convinced Mom and Dad need all this fur to stay warm….
wow that is all i have to say
Many animals were used in the making of this photograph….
And yes, They were tasty!
I live in AK now and I KNEW this was taken up here before I even read it! Not because everyone wears fur up here, but when someone does wear fur, they go ALL OUT.
How much wood could a woodchuck chuck if he had a chainsaw?
As for the fur comments – they are dressing up like eskimos. What natural fiber would eskimos be able to find that would keep them warm enough to survive winter on the tundra? Uh huh. It’s easy to be anti-fur when you live in California next to a hemp shop.
The Donner party embarks….
It may just be the glasses and mustache, but the dude looks a little like an older version of Tobias Funke.
hahhahahaha yeah and i bet they also live in an igloo and car pool on the dog sled to work
Did you think about sending that picture to PETA (that association that protect animals and hate when people wear fur…)?
I hope they didnt send this family pic to PETA… lol
My family (dogs included) had that same pic taken in 96-97ish at Elmendorf AFB, right outside Anchorage. Its still hanging on the wall at my parents’ house…
I wonder what PETA thinks of this.
(I wonder how many people have mentioned PETA already).
I think I feel like some hummus right now.
HHHHHEEEEEYYYYYYYYYYY KIDS LETS GET ON OUR COATS THAT YOUR UNCLE EARL SHOT…..I MEAN BOUGHT
We have a family portrait exactly like this from back in the days when WE lived in Alaska!! No joke. We also have portraits of both me and my younger brother as babies dressed in mukluks and boots, sitting on snowshoes.
I think that maybe this sort of thing is was a 90’s Alaskan tradition.
If you don’t have anything nice to say…
How many animals had to be injured in the making of this photo?
My family and I have photos exactly like this too. Oh, to be Alaskan.. Ridiculous, really.
