Circle of life

Stacey and Dave brought little Nate over for a road trip to celebrate Joey's graduation.

Diane and Stacey and Dave wanted to come for Joey, of course, but really they wanted to rub my nose in the fact that I didn't invite them to Brenda's for Joey's graduation party.

Bitter, angry people they are.

(Seriously though, I love that Di Di, Stacey, Dave and Nate went out of their way to come celebrate for Joey. They really were a great influence on our boys - no sarcasm meant. Love you guys.)

Meanwhile, Jen attempts to teach Nate some bad behavior. Despite years of working at it, our kids turned out pretty good. She's going after a new generation to corrupt.

Here's a picture of Joey as an infant.

I guess I don't remember that he had a UDub hat at that age. And his teeth all came in much earlier than Nate, who is gumming his own hand. The things you forget as the years go by.
