So Awkward it Hurts: Family Edition
Can't live with them, can't live without them; family dynamics can be strange when everyone becomes their own unique person or seems to be exactly the same. But that's also what keeps it interesting and fun, no?
My family loved to pose for photos together, and most of the pictures are only awkward because I judge myself so hard. Braces in one picture, glasses in another, a funny funny in my 6th grade portrait... But for some reason we never reached these heights of silliness.
Sometimes I wonder if I missed out on a really interesting childhood. Compared to these guys, I almost feel boring...

Nothing suggests a forced posed like the casual hands in pockets.
It's All In The Details

When concert attire varies...
Personally I think the girl on the right looks the most out of place.
How Were Your Travels?

When Mom and Dad are hanging' with the wrong crowd.
You know though, young love is not so bad. Sometimes you get carried away and you don't care who sees. It's not like they're harming anyone. Live every day like it is your last. You might die of diabetes II tomorrow, so just kiss the one you're with!

The top of my head; it's my good side!
Was anybody in your family this blonde? I am impressed. I wish I could get that tone of blonde from my hair dresser. I always get those unfortunate roots though. Ah, to be born with Swedish genes and hair like corn silk.
Big Headed

Patriarchy at its finest. I have a feeling that a dad like this stomps around saying "You don't respect me."
Did you think making your head larger than everybody else would result in somebody showing you respect? Dude, you have to give respect to earn it. When I say "please respect me..." I usually am saying "Hey, treat me like a person." But when you say it, you mean "Treat me like an authority"
Something Seems Dummy
