Little Drummer Girl
“My brother and I in the late 80s. Clearly missing band practice for any reason was not an option.”

Shouldering The Load
“After 2 hours of trying to get the 13-month-old to stay put for family pics, we tried having both boys on our shoulders so they couldn’t get away. Well, it worked!”

Like Mother Like Son
“This is my first school picture, (in the AFP 2017 calendar, March 14th), compared to my son’s first school picture. To say the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree is an understatement.”

Graduation Casual
“I am the lucky one in the middle on my high school graduation day in June 1979. The two bathing beauties next to me are my sisters. Guess it was hot that day and they obviously decided not to go to the ceremony.”

The Fireplace Scam
“My aunt gave me a very old family album. This picture represent an ancestor resting her elbow on a fireplace. The pose is stiff, like everyone’s pictures from this era. But when I looked closer at the fireplace, I saw that it was only a painting. I like imagining the photographer’s instructions: ‘Move your elbow a little higher!'”

The Stoic Preschooler
“When the teacher laughs while handing you the picture packet and says they tried everything they could, you know you’ve got a winner. When asked ‘Lilly, why didn’t you smile?’ Her response was simple: ‘I don’t like school and I don’t like to smile.’ And that will tell you everything you need to know about this 4-year-old.”

The Great Escape
“My two-year-old daughter got naked and pooped in the neighbors yard. After chasing her through the culdesac I finally caught her. My neighbor, while laughing snapped this picture of me carrying her inside. I tried not to get poop on myself. I was unsuccessful. #reallife”

Bargain Bin Twins
“My mom found two outfits in the same size at a thrift store. And since her 11-year-old daughter (me) was the same size as her, she thought it would be a fabulous idea to have our picture in our matching outfits. If you can call them outfits. Don’t miss the matching ‘fros or the creepy field, either.”
