Christmas
Mad Santa
“This is my creepy throwback photo of me and Santa as a kid. Check out his eyes.”

Holy Roller
“I hated taking pictures when I was little, especially ones where we had to dress up. I told my mom I was done and she didn’t believe me. I didn’t mean to make this face. It just sort of happened on its own. So this is the Christmas card she got.”

O Christmas Chair
“My mom’s family, 1963. My mom and aunt are the little girls in front row. We’re all very confused as to why the chair is the focal point of the picture. Apparently my mom’s grandmother, who took the photo, always took pictures where the people were not centered or heads were cut off. Otherwise it’s just a typical 1960s Christmas picture!”

Reindeer Games
“We went for a family portrait when I was nine and the photographer thought this would be a great addition to the shoot.”

Holiday Spirits
“This was my attempt at taking a family holiday photo. There was lots of fighting. Tears. A broken snow globe. And an accidental shot of my cleavage as I cleaned up the mess. There was a lot of bourbon as well. This one was an accident but ended up being my favorite.”

Sad Santa
“I don’t remember having this photo taken, but every time I look at it as an adult, I am horrified that I was planted on Santa’s lap. He couldn’t look any less excited about his job…..I’m looking a little uncertain about the whole thing as well! Bet there wasn’t a “ho, ho, ho” greeting involved here!”

A Christmas Story
“So many amazing things about this picture. I am the beauty with the middle part bangs accompanied by my life size Barbie. My mom is clearly feeling what every mother on Christmas feels while my dad is 90’s fabulous.”

“This joyous photo was taken in 1994 in Maysville, Kentucky while we were at a Christmas party.”

Hair Club
“This family photo was taken at Sears in 1987 as present to our mom. I guess you can tell we all loved heavy metal music. The guy on the back right is the oldest of the four brothers and yes that’s his real hair. The one in the front left is me, the youngest of the four, and I was pissed that I had to take this picture. We asked if they had an alley way for the back drop, but had to settle for a plain one.”

“My mom had a thing for dressing us all alike for Christmas pictures.”
