The Wonder of Nature
“We came all the way from Minnesota. My husband and I kept telling our three kids how breathtaking and amazing the Grand Canyon was. When we arrived the entire thing was covered in fog and we couldn’t see a thing!”

Ballers
“We’re a big sports family and basketball is particularly valued. With nearly every kid having taken their turn on the court (and their father as the team coach more than once), we decided to forego the traditional fireplace/piano/studio family photo one year for this “jump ball” monstrosity staged in a high school gym with me as the ref, my parents as the coaches (notice my dad yelling at me) and my brothers and sisters as the players.”

Brother Nicholas
“My father dabbled in ventriloquism. Apparently having four kids wasn’t enough. He kept his little friends in the closest and I told all my friends my dad played with dolls. Don’t worry, Nicholas, (the actual dummy pictured), got all of our hand me downs.”

Nightmare On Sesame Street
“This is a photo of me and my mom somewhere in Orange County, California from the early 90s, probably 1990. No idea what the event was for or why there was a creepy Big Bird scaring the kiddos.”
