Hair & Makeup
“Setting up to take our first family picture, not sure why everyone needed to touch someone else’s face, but our two month old had the right idea and tried to make a run for it.”

Big Daddy, Little Baby
“My dad is a big man, and I was a little baby. The details in the couch including a juice box sliding between cushions, and a crack in the wall covered with tape, both highlights our living situation back then. Our house may not have been rich, but the love was.”

Disney Drama
“1985, Disneyworld. I’m the pouty little girl in the bunny hat, next to my sister and cousin and in front of my parents. I don’t remember what happened but it sure seems like I did or said something inappropriate before the photo was taken.”

Eight Is Enough
“Is this a promotional photo for a new ABC show about a dysfunctional family from the 90s? No, it’s my family! PS, I’m the one in the middle. Believe it or not, I actually requested my mom make me that outfit. Viva la purple sweatsuits.”

Playing Possum
“That’s my grandfather (Pappy) kneeling, my sister in his lap, and my cousin standing. I believe it was my uncle’s possum – he was known for taking in and rehabbing animals in a spare bathroom. This was taken in 1969 in Grand Junction, Tennessee.”
