Burning Down The House
“Backstory, ha! I wish I knew! The pic is me (in the towel?!?) and my baby brother .. circa 1989 and I have no idea why we are so calm and why my Mom or Dad felt the need to snap this photo!”

Congratulations
“Taking this photo Easter Morning 1986 seemed like a good idea at the time. The CONGRATULATIONS sign is from our younger son’s Confirmation the week before. Apparently no time to take it down before Easter morning.”

The Terrible Twos
“I have the fondest memories of all the amazing birthday cakes my mum used to make us. So clearly, I got some really dud presents this year.”

Semi-Formal
Thank you, Dad, for always making prom a little more awkward in your own unique way.

Roll Bounce
“This was taken early 1965. I was posing with my favorite truck while my sisters roller skated in the driveway. The oldest sister has a unconvincing ‘I didn’t do it’ look while my other sister goes down hard.”

Ashes To Ashes
“An inquisitive baby, I’d often explore places that normally would be ‘off-limits’. The cold soft ash felt good in my little fingers though! Luckily, my brothers ‘rescued’ me, and my parents thought to snap a photo of it.”

The Ties That Bind
“My mom bought us new Easter outfits and, to our horror, we had to wear the dreaded… ties. Needless to say, we weren’t happy about it.”
