Bangin’
“The day before school pictures 1984 my mom was complaining that I wore black too often (all the time). So after making myself beautiful on school picture day I grabbed an old white sweater vest out of her closet and wore it to school. She still was not pleased with my school photos. Wonder why?”

Dress Porn
“My grandmother, bless her heart, made this dress for me by hand. However, she never noticed the fabric she was sewing was covered with pictures of a couple making out. She then rolled my hair and sent me to school…on PICTURE day… I still love you MawMaw.”

Up A Creek
“My husband purchased land for an off-road park. While out for a “work day” his friend managed to drive his bronco into a creek and got stuck. They later posed for a picture not realizing the bronco, now permanently parked in the creek was in the shot. This is what happens on “daddy daughter day!”

No Flipping
“Here’s my Mom and Dad in September 1970. This was always my favorite photo from their wedding because it’s just so cornball. You have to give credit to the photographer for the picture of my dad in the TV. This was years before Photoshop, so I’m not sure how the heck he pulled this trick off.”

Milk Of Magnesia
“I took pride in creating my own costumes. I thought this costume would generate a lot of laughs. In retrospect, constipation is more funny to 9 year-olds than the population as a whole.”

The Birthday Party
“This is me at my 9th birthday party… apparently, it was laundry day as well. My best friend hit me in the face with a mini-golf putter at the Dairy Queen. It was an accident. Only two friends and my brother were still around for cake after I got home from the hospital. Really Mom, were there no clean shirts around?”
