Worst Day Of Our Life

“My sister and I thought it might be a good idea to have our kids’ photos taken as a Christmas present for my mom.  With two hungry, tired newborn babies and a bored 3 year old, it was quite possibly the worst day of our lives.  This was the best pic we could get of all three of them.”

All In The Family

“The year was 1990. This was NOT my prom date. It just so happened my brother also attended the prom so we had a picture taken together.”

Our Little Pumpkin

“My 3 year old was very unhappy about his first preschool field trip even though it was to a fun pumpkin patch. He scowled at everyone and everything the entire time and was even madder after I coerced him to getting behind this pumpkin cut-out to take this picture… if looks could kill, I would have been dead immediately after taking this photo!”

Denim Divas

“The high waist pants, crisp jean shirts and of course the hair, courtesy of overnight foam rollers. Oh the 90s.”

Guinea Pig Surprise

The Big Dig

“This is my family. Maybe 1977. The beautiful backdrop of the golden sunset on wallpaper accentuates the glow of happiness on our faces. My little sister is clearly the champion. My dad was a part time photographer in the 70’s, and we took lots of posed family portraits. This one my sister found deep in the archives of old negatives. It never saw the light of day….until now.”

Everybody Do The Dinosaur

“Photo of my family and me (on the left) in the 80’s. No lie, this was a casual Saturday afternoon on our way to the mall! Just HaleyASaurus, MommyASaurus, and HeidiASaurus traveling around in our ‘Wish We Were A Dinosaur Family’ sweats!”

Laid Back Leather

“This was taken in I think 1993 when I was 11 and my mom took me to get glamour shots at this little hair salon in rural Massachusetts. I remember thinking how cool I looked but now I just have to laugh.”

The Curlet

“I wish someone had told my mother you shouldn’t brush curly hair. I give you: the curly mullet. Outfit/wall clash, an added bonus.”
