Santa’s Pants
“The year is 2001. You get your kids ready to take them to the mall photo store for Christmas pictures. Years later your kids question your judgement of putting them all in Santa’s pants.”

Welcome To The Dollhouse
“This is a photo of me when I was about 2 years old around Christmas time. I’m at a house that was decorated every year with hundreds of dolls in various Christmas-themed scenes, but what a pyramid of dolls has to do with Christmas, I don’t know. I don’t remember this at all, so I must have blocked out the creepiness.”

The Placeholder
“This was my parent’s pregnancy announcement in 1991 a couple months before my birth. My dad saved the cardboard outline and gave it to me before the birth of my first child.”

Turqlenecks
“It was the 80s. My dad thought it was a good idea to take a picture in the woods with snow. The look on his face doesn’t validate the brilliance of the idea. Mom chose the color of our shirts. Apparently she expected more of a tropical setting.”

The Nutcracker
“I work at a ballet school and kids often present artwork to their favorite teachers for the holidays…like this masterpiece of a nutcracker, with his sword.”
