“My Mom booked this photo shoot. I was 12 and my sister was 15. We have no idea why the photographer thought laying in a pile on my Dad would make a good photo. And how did Mom get out of it? She must have known then how ridiculous it would look. Moms know everything.”

Fun With Tetanus

“Playing in grandma’s back yard. She had some old rusty playground equipment. I WAS NOT going to slide my son down, but the family thought it would be a funny picture. We just wanted to climb to the top to look around. (taken around 1991)”

Portrait Of Despair

“My brother’s family. Only Mom could keep it together. The kids are grown now but I can still see the same personalities in them today!  I love to look back at it when I need a laugh.  Even the kids friends love it and tease them relentlessly!  Thanks heavens they don’t have a copy of my family portrait.  LOL.”

Cavity Squad

“My childhood best friend’s family was very crafty and creative. We were always playing dress up. The dental-themed Halloween project was a major nightly endeavor that spanned weeks and involved many layers of paper mâché and tons of straws. We were a big hit in our neighborhood!  I’m the nerd wearing a floss box.”

Anarchy

“Can’t explain anything about this picture of my grandfather with my little brothers as I was away at college.  Apparently everything went straight to hell once I left home–maybe wearing clothes became optional.  My mother must have taken this…I have no idea what she was thinking.”
