Siblings
Pengrim
“Still not sure why my mom wanted to take us for Halloween pics with the Michael Myers of penguins.”

Brotherhead
“This is of my older sister, perfect in all pictures, and older brother’s gigantically chubby head. The photographer thought this was the best picture of the whole shoot. My mom thought it was hilarious and horrifying, so of course she bought it.”

Spotty
“Mum, an avid seamstress, thought it would be a great idea to make the family matching outfits for Christmas and was inspired by the family dog, Saxon.”

Twin Pees
“I’m the cute little kid in the back. I was about 4 years old and for some reason me and my identical twin brother got the bright idea that it would be fun to go outside and take a whiz on the street. When we came back inside the house, my mom asked us where we went, and we told her. Then my dad got a brighter idea, went and grabbed the camera, and made us go stand in front of our puddles.”

Smoked
“Christmas sometime in the early/mid 90s and this is me and my two sisters. My neighbor worked for Marlboro cigarettes and my mother decided that since their company sweatshirts were red, we should all wear them for our Christmas pictures.”

Top Dog
“This photo is of my father-in-law, his sister, and their dog when they were kids. The dog was very loved by their mother and she thought it needed to be included in the background of her children. She loved the dog so much that he is even covering up part of her son.”

Glamour Girls Day
“My mom thought it would be nice to take my sister and I for a girl’s day at the local glamour shots. She didn’t always have the best ideas. Honestly, topless with a pink boa was not what my sister and I had in mind. But she genuinely thought this was pretty and proceeded to hang it in our family home for all to see for years. Love ya mom.”

Nightmare On Sesame Street
“My parents took us to a show that was ‘supposed’ to be Sesame Street-themed. Needless to say, the costumes did not live up to expectations. That is supposed to be Big Bird and Cookie Monster behind me. It looks like characters from a horror film.”
