Brothers
Man Down
“This photo was taken on a trip to Punta Cana in the Dominican Republic. My daughter is posing with all smiles, and my son is tipping his kayak over after a big wave hit him! I’d say perfect timing on my part.”

The Crabapple
“This is a Christmas photo shoot of my three boys, then ages two, four, and six. They were supposed to be posing around that box, which was a place holder for their soon-to-be-born sister (the photographer was going to Photoshop her in after she was born). We were trying to get the boys to look at the box in awe, but they didn’t understand. Then one of my sons found a crabapple and threw it right at the photographer…”

Red, White, And Groovy
“My Mom has always been a creative sewer. Back in the early 70’s she thought dressing the family alike in the cool, trendy flag cloth would be a great idea. Note the awesome brown polyester pants and cool white belts sported by the guys! And little me on my father’s knee! This picture has been out of the family’s eye for decades and I recently dug it out of somewhere. I showed it to my Mom and her reaction was “Good lord, what was I thinking?” That got a huge chuckle from me!”

Little Darth
“My family was asked to bring their favorite item to a Unitarian church photoshoot. I brought a flip phone, my father a guitar, and my 8-year-old brother his Darth Vader mask. He refused to take the photo without it.”

The Dental Photo Opp
“Our family went to the dentist. The man to the right is our dentist. Our little brother was still feeling the effects of the laughing gas and we all decided to take a picture.”

Window Watchers
“While I was having a photo shoot, my mother decided it would be totally acceptable to have the photographer take photos of her and my brother creepin’ through the weird window in this photo. As you can tell, I was pissed and didn’t want to have anything to do with this picture. This picture has been making me, family and friends laugh since 1995! Thanks Madre!”

Chalk Dirty To Me
“I wasn’t feeling well and needed a nap. My husband took our boys outside to play with the sidewalk chalk I’d just purchased. This was the fruit of their labors. Not sure what the neighbors thought.”
