Siblings

The Crew

“My mom and her two sisters, circa 1990. Unclear why this picture was taken or why no one thought they could smile.”

Make Yourself Comfortable

“This is my mother, my sister and me posing for our annual Christmas picture in a Walmart in Louisiana circa 2008. Please note the matching Banana Republic sweaters that were purchased on clearance and no, those aren’t spray tans. It was just very hot in the studio.”

The Birthday Girl

“This was taken for my mom’s December birthday — notice the weird birthday cake with Christmas trees on it. She looks thrilled. One hand with a death grip on my brother (who thought he was the ultimate warrior from WWE) and the other with a cigarette to take the edge off.”

Seeing Double

“This my younger brother and I, taken around 1970, when the Partridge Family was a big hit. The vests were crushed velvet and our hair was plastered with Dippity-do so it would stay in place.”

Balloon Baby

“This photo of my 6 month old brother, taken on my second birthday. Apparently my siblings thought it would be hilarious to tie balloons to all of his limbs and my parents were just like, ‘whatever.’ He was the eighth child.”

What’s In A Name

“An old family photo of my husband’s. His mom did not think much of his sister’s dog’s name, or of the dog itself.”

All Aboard

“This was the first and and only year my sister and I were in dance classes. Please note: In the real world, I’ve never been on Amtrak with a conductor that wore this outfit. Sadly.”

Dig It

“My daughter was crying for the entire photo shoot and just when I thought we would get a normal picture…”

Mane Attraction

“Yeah, this is supposed to be a family photo, but let’s be honest: the real star is my brother’s ginormous, outrageously over-teased hair.”

Curl Girls

“We had the best hair of 1987.”
