"Awkward" is a definitely a good way to describe Miley Cyrus' week.

She's been spotted in stonewashed mom jeans. (Ding!) She klutzed out while doing a front flip and cracked her tailbone. (Ding-ding!) And she got very jiggy with a provocatively shaped cake. (Ding-ding-ding!)

Ready for the jackpot? The star is cashing in her chips with this, er, hay-riffic vintage family pic that she just posted on Twitter.

So what does she have to say about La Familia Cyrus?

"Awkward family photos. Look @billyraycyrus always giving face!" the star tweeted.

Cyrus didn't say when the photo was taken, and we're no experts on the burgeoning scientific field of CFPF (Cheese Family Photo Forensics).

We did, however, wheel out our patented Cheese-O-Meter from the storage closet here. And judging from its readings on Dad's pout, Mom's vintage Beverly Hills, 90210 tresses and the whole country-bumpkin theme, our machine inconclusively pegs this pic to be taken in 1994, at the height of Billy Ray Cyrus' achy-breaky fame.

One thing we can conclude: Even back then, Miley Cyrus was already quite the photogenic charmer!
