Uncles, Aunts, & Cousins

Hanging Out

“My niece drew this at school. It looks like she and I are being hanged while her mum is watching. Her teacher called her mother in for a meeting; her mother had to explain we went to a high rope obstacle course on the weekend and the ropes were attached to harnesses. Never judge a book by its cover.”

Lederhosen On Ice

“This is a photo of my boyfriend’s cousin. He has been an amazing athlete in most winter sports from a very young age. In this photo he is about seven or eight. I don’t know who forced him to wear this outfit, but when I saw it a year ago at their house, I knew I had to send it to you guys. He gave me permission to post this, albeit begrudgingly.”

The Price Of Cooperation

“This is a photo of my family. It was quite awkward. My 4 year old brother refused to wear a shirt. My grandmother has a 3×5 foot tapestry of this hanging in her house.”

Gold Digger

“This was at a family reunion about 10 years ago. My mother and I were posing for a picture on my ATV. This was back before everyone had digital cameras so we didn’t realize my relative in the background ‘digging for gold’ until we had the film developed. This picture still makes me laugh to this day. He must have his pinky finger all the way in there…I do give him an A for Effort!

The saying ‘You can pick your friends, but you can’t ‘pick’ your relatives’ rings true.”
