Really?

“This is me at two months old.  It has been a family favorite because of the seriously annoyed look on my face. Even at that age I began questioning people around me and thinking to myself ‘Why, why must I do this?!'”

Keeping Their Noses Clean

“Taken at a formal photographer’s studio  in 1975. Mom and Dad did it as a joke but I really meant it.”

Take Your Pick

“We took this family picture during a trip to Clark’s Trading Post in New Hampshire. We were obviously very excited to get those awesome glitter & streamer batons and to be sharing the day together. But the best part is the woman picking at her underwear.”

The Grass Is Greener, Until It Isn’t

“We had artificial turf installed the day before Easter. We thought it would be good for egg hunting and taking an Easter picture but one child was not happy about being unable to feel the dirt. She hadn’t yet forgiven us when we asked them to take this picture.”

Frog Boy

“How my boyfriend got all those frogs to stay put is a mystery unto itself. Don’t know how it took seven years of dating to find this picture, but it was worth the wait.”

Camera Shy

“My son, daughter, and I went to a community day event in Jamestown, Virginia, where we won this gift basket in a raffle. The organizers wanted to take some publicity pics with us, and of course my daughter was being a stinker and threw a fit. Only my son and I sat for them. Years later I was clearing out my email inbox when I rediscovered this gem. Kids can be so creepy!”

The Outfit Checklist

“My checklist for leaving the house: plastic visor? Check. Awkward goggles? Check. Pink plastic Swatch watch? Check. Michael Jackson-style glove? Check. Outfit purchased at the thrift store? Check. Self esteem much higher than situation warrants? Check. ‘I’m ready, let’s hit the road!'”
