Spotlight
“My grandfather is a photographer and my great aunt is his assistant. This was them setting up for a prom or homecoming. We always take a picture to test the lights and this is what came out. That’s me and my little brother in the front. :)”

Bingo Was Her Name-O
“I’m the smiling kid in the front and my aunt, my grandparents and a cousin are the ones looking at me. We used to play Bingo during the Christmas holidays at my uncle’s home and they were not happy with something I did but I don’t remember why. It must have been something really, really bad judging from their faces.”

Funny Farm
“This was taken on my in-laws property. My father-in-law was a businessman but for some reason he thought he was a farmer too. Apparently he was bad at disciplining his goats.”

Grandma’s Exorcism
“There’s a lot going on in this photo, from the strong 90’s vibes to each family coordinated by color. But the best part by far is that when my grandma saw 5 year old me (standing at the bottom right) wasn’t looking at the camera, she went old school photoshop and chose to replace my head with another picture of me, which is also not facing in the right direction!”

“My father-in-law babysitting my 2 year-old daughter Lillian. I’m just thankful they BOTH fell asleep at the same time :)”

The Christening
“This was my Christening, June 1971. I’m the baby obviously, my Godmother is holding me, my parents are next to her. Their hideous outfits aren’t the “awkward” part of this photo. In the background, my grandmother is pulling my sister’s hair while my brother is recovering from a smack! All of this right on the front steps of a church.”

Destination Wedding
“My mom got pregnant out of wedlock in 1969. Since it was taboo back then, she was forced to get married. Her father was in the hospital on the day she was to be wed, so the ceremony was held in his small hospital room (wedding cake is in lower right of pic). You can tell she was thrilled about it by the look on her face.”
