Grandpa Was Quite The Stud

“Grandfather died in 1994. Going through his things today, I found his wallet. This was next to his license, military ID, and Medicare card. Clearly important.”

A Holiday Letter From Debbie, Gary, & Lance

You’ve been pranked. That’s right– introducing the Awkward Family Photos Prank Holiday Card Set.

Each Prank Holiday Card set includes three tear-off cards featuring an Awkward Family Photos brood with their fake yearly summary on the back.

• SEND one in the mail anonymously
• SNEAK one onto wall at a friend’s holiday party
• DISPLAY on your fridge amongst all your real friends.

Whichever you choose, bewilderment will follow – which is what the holidays are all about, right?

Me And My Tooth

“My second grade picture. Yes, that is a tooth. Yes, that collar is flight-worthy.”

Going The Extra Mile

“My parents like to make their own holiday cards and think it’s more personal to include photos of themselves or other family. Last year they were inspired by The Elf on the Shelf and took this little gem. It was sent out to the entire family, their friends and even my boss.”

No, It’s Not A Wig

“This is what happens when your mother chops off your beautiful, long, thick, Crystal-Gayle-length hair the day before school photos in Grade 2.  And check out the glasses.  Didn’t realize I was cross eyed until this picture surfaced 33 years later.”

Benjamin Button

“I don’t know what is worse… the bowl cut, the glasses, the ultra tight pants, the giant belt or the fact that I was off by at least 2 buttons.”
