Thanks to the rise of social media, everyone feels the need to mark every milestone with an elaborate photoshoot. Whether it's getting engaged or announcing a pregnancy, these photos are likely a constant feature in your newsfeeds.
Well, one couple decided to do their own take on these milestone photos with an announcement they've been waiting decades to make. Take a look at these hilarious photos for yourself.
When Amy and Randy English's daughter, Hayley, moved out of their home, they celebrated with an "empty nester" photoshoot.
Hayley just started her own photography business and she also works as a full-time nanny. I'm sure there were no hard feelings from Hayley over these photos then.
With Hayley gone, Amy and Randy are officially dog parents and they look pretty happy about that. The dogs don't seem quite as sure.
From the chalkboard signs to the giant number-shaped balloon, these look exactly like the type of photos millennial parents would take to announce that they're expecting. I am dying of laughter over these.
“Most parents are a little sad when they hit the ‘empty nest’ phase of life,” Hayley wrote in her Facebook post. “However, my parents seem thrilled.” I think "thrilled" is an understatement.
I think they are really going to enjoy this next phase of their lives. They'll get more sleep — that's for sure.
Her post currently has over 160,000 shares and about 44,000 comments. These photos resonated with a lot of parents out there.
I'm not going to lie, my son is only a toddler and I'm already getting ideas for my own "empty nest" photoshoot. I hope he will find it as hilarious as I will!
