Probably one of the most heartwarming trends, that has been on the Internet for a while now is Family photo recreations. After all, one of the main reasons for doing family photography is having the ability to recreate it in the future. Family photo shoots are a perfect way to highlight the strength of your bond. The whole idea of this trend is to replicate a family portrait, usually taken a long time ago, with all of the members participating again. And looking at two before and after images that are 5, 10 or even 20 years apart yet feature the same people really does the trick.
Bored Panda has compiled a list of some of the most creative old family photos re-enactments to show you that there are enjoyable ways to go about it, too. From visiting the same places to striking the same poses, these awkward family photos remind us that while time flies, some things remain the same. Especially, our love for one another. Scroll down to check out the adorably funny photos and upvote your faves.

Can we stop arguing about who the guy was really born as, and focus on how ageless the mom looks?

He was alway a man on the inside, it just took us longer to see it on the outside as well.

okay...so the person on the far right transitioned from female to male ?
Stefan Andersen 4 years ago
I am here to ask all people who are like trying to be woke about the guy being trans and just say that I don’t think anyone wants to be congratulated for being themselves. Instead focus on the fact that he is so confident that he is wearing those DANGEROUSLY small shorts. THAT is the confidence we should congratulate.

So your oldest daughter is now your son. Still cool. I envy the chest job and those thighs! Mastectomies are rarely this good.

Celina Knippling 7 years ago
I love this! Man, her daughters & son have nothing to worry about related to growing older if they got mom’s genes! She seriously doesn’t look like she aged a day. #TotallyJealous :)

People are debating who the mom is... look at the faces, the mom is still where she was in the original photo, is' the same face exactly. I think is wonderful to show this family is still a family with the one girl now a man. Yup, I see the breast removal scars .... nice Wolf tattoo, one of my animal spirits! WOOF!
