Recreating The Awkwardness
“My sister, cousin, and I grew up together and our parents were always taking pictures of us doing weird stuff. We have no idea why my cousin is in the scary clown make-up, who did it, or why she is just holding that apple. The hardest part of the re-creation was my sister – who is obviously no longer a baby. She wore a flesh-colored spandex suit and an adult diaper. She couldn’t get her feet up by her face though, so we cropped out most of her body.”

The Safe Way

Rain Check
After an 18 month engagement we finally celebrated our wedding day, albeit in rainy conditions. Our photographer suggested a shot with umbrellas and told our bridesmaids and groomsmen to act as if they were talking amongst themselves. Eoin clearly did not buy in to this and was unable to hide his displeasure. Instead of making an excuse or apologising for his grimace, when asked about this photo he replied with the following “the guy on the right can’t have said something that funny and some of the bridesmaids clearly aren’t talking to anyone at all”. We’re so glad that Eoin was a part of our special day.

Paint It White
“Our attempt at painting with a toddler present…Leaving the room for a few minutes with a gallon of paint on the table was a huge mistake. This is why we can’t have anything nice (for now).”

Lady Finger
“I accidentally cut off my sister’s finger when we were younger. I think she handled it well. We were playing a game of hide and go seek- dinosaur edition. I went to go hide in a closet and she came running to hide there as well. I slammed the door and next thing you know, screams. Took her to the local hospital, where they claimed they could do nothing about it. That not being good enough for my mom, so she decided to take her to children’s hospital where they promptly put it back on. The end result was a fully functional finger, except the very very tip (the puffy part that rises above the finger nail) died, and never puffed back up.”
