The family photo-shoot ritual has long been a source of pride for parents and dread for their children. After all, who wants to go to Sears and have that creepy-looking photographer dangle toys in your face? Dressing up in a coordinated family outfit is a quick ticket to mortification.

If you thought your pics were embarrassing, take a look at the gems we discovered. Now maybe you'll appreciate your narrow escapes from Saturday afternoons at Sears.

In the big picture of life does this really matter? Pics of family are very personal and mean something only to them, stop judging what is correct. Actually this whole pic thing was a stupid idea...Everyone get a life!

I am so glad I don't have those kind of pix laying around to put on the net.I wouldn't dare publish myself out there like that. Joe Dirt is still alive and doing well. He has a family just like him. Get a hair cut if you haven't already. What were the rest of you all thinking/It's funny as hell.

I think the one with the baby and the winnie the pooh costume was cute-ish.

These are hilarious! The bob one is the funniest i think. Some families have some well talent i guess you could put it. But they are all cute, but some strange.

Aint nothing wrong with family togetherness and snaping a picture to show the leghths they will go through to set them selves apart from the crowd. It is only a picture caught in a flash of less than a second. I especially love the one of the folks in the Winnie the Poo and Eeyore costumes. I am not sure who the toddler is, though. I just want to laugh right off the chair becasue of the silly warm smile on the Eeyore guy's face. The little kid is having fun too. Mom, well, her look is a bit frozen.
Now, the big hair photo, was simply a sign of the times. The hair style was the rage in hair do's from the mid 1970's, which was all a common fashion first started by Charlie's Angels', Farrah Fawcett. We all have "sign of the times" photos like that we keep hidden in our albums and in boxes. Bwa-ha-ha-ha!

Well, I think they are cute. I really like the one with the family with the numbers on their jersey's that corosponded with their ages.
I would like to say to all those who have a problem with Black shows, networks (BET) and websites (Black Voices) saying they are a form of racism or separation, Whites have the same things, but they are just not called " White shows (Gossip Girl, One Tru Hill, etc.etc...), networks (The CW etc...) and websites (this one AOL)This website and this area we are commenting on right now is a prime example of that. There are no Black families presented here. Just thought I would throw that out there.

Some of these are quite cute actually...and you have to take in to account the time period in which they were taken. The photos that you LOVE today are going to end up here tomorrow.
