A Calendar 2025
Hosed
“Our family friends were of German ancestry and their kids got their pictures taken in authentic lederhosen. My mom thought it was so cool, so my sister and I had to do the same — we don’t have an ounce of German in us.”

Flower Power
“My mom took this picture of me in 1986, I was very proud of my growing sunflower. And I really had to go to the bathroom.”

Hand Me Frowns
“This is my husband and our youngest next to a picture of my husband and his father. Couldn’t plan this if you tried!”

Pixie Pics
“I was obsessed with pixy sticks in high school and decided to showcase my favorite candy for my school photo. I literally always had them on me and the sugar high got me through those crazy days.

The Runaway Stroller
“This is from the spring of 1977 so I’m 3 years old and we’re at the Houston Zoo. I’m the one in the runaway stroller. My mom is the frightened woman in the red and white top realizing my stroller was rolling off and evidently, my dad took this picture as he was walking up. I don’t remember the incident so I must have come away from it unscathed.”

As If
“It was bring your favorite thing to school picture day at our tiny middle school in Virginia. I, being a 14-year-old girl, loved being on the phone. It made perfect sense to me to bring along my totally awesome clear phone with me. I had my shades and my ridiculous bangs, and I was ready for my close-up. Too cool for school!”
