When Laura Ashley Attacks
“This is a photo of my mom, younger sister, and me visiting my mom’s parents in Scottsdale, AZ in 1989. My grandmother, an old-school WASP, ordered these matching Laura Ashley dresses for the occasion. There’s no good explanation of my modified bowl-mullet hairstyle, however.”

Last Action Heroes
“I’m on the right my brother is on the left. It was the middle 80s. All I can say is I fully hold Stallone and Van Damme responsible for this. We tried. We failed. Miserably.”

Cover Girl
“I guess my parents thought that it was a good idea for me to aspire to be on Cosmo at the age of 12. This was taken at one of those stands at Universal Studios in the 90’s.”

Dust In The Wind
“We were trying to make a rainbow with smoke bombs for our pregnancy announcement. The plan was for my husband to light them really fast then take a picture in front of them. We didn’t know this picture happened till days later going through all the pictures. We realized it looked like my husband farted and my daughter smelled it.”
