Turn Around, Bright Eyes
“My girls and I. The whole family went for church directory photos and the photographer decided to be ‘creative’ with us. My husband is very much alive and well, but this photo screams ‘Dad is dead!'”

Big Fish
“Just what every kid recovering from an elbow reconstruction wants: a huge promotional fish from Long John Silvers stopping by with a care package of coloring supplies and I can’t remember what else. The early 90s was a strange time.”

The Scoop
“My daughter pooped in the ocean and her uncle fished the turds out in a net an hour later. That’s my sister in the background.”

Roll Bounce
“I am the one bent over with a pillow duct taped to his butt. The girl in the background is my sister. Yeah, so that pretty much sums it up!”

Cool Ray
“My parents had a traveling puppet show that my sister and I grew up performing in from ages 8-18. This is one of our promotional pictures of us with a puppet we worked together, named… Cool Ray. YES. Kids could buy a picture for $ .25. And did. I’m on the left, apparently sporting the same hair as the puppet.”
