Stars And Yikes
“That one time in 1992 I thought my siblings and I should take a photo for my mom’s Mother’s Day gift. We ended up looking like the Brady Bunch Band.”

Red, White, And Groovy
“My Mom has always been a creative sewer. Back in the early 70’s she thought dressing the family alike in the cool, trendy flag cloth would be a great idea. Note the awesome brown polyester pants and cool white belts sported by the guys! And little me on my father’s knee! This picture has been out of the family’s eye for decades and I recently dug it out of somewhere. I showed it to my Mom and her reaction was “Good lord, what was I thinking?” That got a huge chuckle from me!”

The Patriot
“My grandfather is the star of many awkward family photos. Here, he poses pantsless, with a pair of kettlebells, artistically composed at his feet to highlight his lack of pants and booty short spandex. The flag in the background pretty much says it all: this is AMERICA.”

The Spirit Of ’93
“My sister hired a photographer to take our family picture all dressed up in our red, white and blue in 1993. Our Dad, pictured in the white shoes, was very patriotic and my sisters and I are as well. It all made sense at the time but now we can laugh and call this picture one of our most awkward family photos! Thank you to my sister for always thinking up such wonderful memories for our family!!”

What’s Up, Dock?
