Family stories are often about when things "went wrong"... we rarely sit around and discuss the episode that had no mishaps... but we have great laughs about the days that did have mishaps (as long as it all turned out well in the end, of course!) For my family, one mishap that is part of our "family stories" would be the film that my father used a second time, creating an entire film of double exposures. The horrifying thing about this mistake was that one roll included wonderful pictures of our new baby brother - and my mother was crushed! The other time the film was used was on a hiking trip to the mountains and we have all these scenery pictures superimposed on the baby pictures. I think the one that was all laugh at still is the above picture; the baby carriage going down the moutain! Enjoy!
Yes, this is me about to ride my bike over the cliff...
My older sister and brother holding baby brother. Oh, look, I'm in the picture too! Just off to the lower right of the baby you can see my head and my hand touching my baby brother's leg. But who are the people hiking in the right side of the picture?...
Brothers. and Mountains.
At least this picture had more baby then scenery...What are your family stories?

I think these pictures are neat! Certainly ones you remember forever! Many would think they are "artsy"!!
It's happened in our house! We also had the experience of a brother-in-law taking pictures at a family reunion with his brand new Cannon camera - only to find the film on top of the refrigerator when we returned home - alas - no pics :)
