Excitable Dad

The Great Sofa Shortage Of 1974
“I’m the one in the horrible pink velvet dress. I grew up with a mother who was always dressed in the best while we wore fashions typical of these. Not only was it our best, but look how small this dress is on me (way too short and the cuffs are halfway up my arm). Thankfully I was thin so it wasn’t like it was too small (to her). My 2 older sisters were hidden in the back because their dresses were so short also. Of course, she is in the middle and looks like a million bucks.”

A Sisterly Engagement
“Someone our school talked my Mom into having my next oldest sister and me pose for what would be the least-seen photo in our family’s history. I was dragged out of 9th grade gym class and forced to don my choir robe, sweat still oozing from my pubescent pores. My sister, Emily wore her 10th grade orchestra band uniform. It wound up looking like an engagement photo, and it’s been a black mark on both of our developmental histories. Horrified by the final product and our over-tweezed eyebrows, this ‘precious family memory’ has been hidden in the shameful confines of my sister’s wallet, and has not seen the light of day for over 30 years.”

Pushed To The Limit
“This is a photo of my two younger siblings and me at my cousin’s wedding. I was very ill, and my little sister was sick of being the guinea pig for the photographer’s lighting. Frankly, I laugh every time I see this photo.”

Jump
“Photographer asked us to jump. My sister clearly didn’t hold her dress.”

Horseplay
“My older sister really loved horses, and being the little sister and a copy-cat, I had to love them, too. We were probably 7 and 11 in this photo that I wish I could unseen every time I see it. This is truly a Halloween costume posing disaster.”

Sad Candid Camera
“My brother was trying to get a good picture of me and my girls for the annual Christmas card. This was in between shots. Little one looks like she saw something she should not have.”

Side Eyes
“This was a photo from the 1970s of my parents, aunts, uncles, and little sister. All wearing flannel, all looking off to the side except for one of us.”
