Billy on the beach. Clearly I need to work on my tan and maybe get a procedure to straighten that right leg. The curls were natural.
My mom and dad, along with the boys, shortly after Joey was born. Notice I am the only one looking at the camera. At least someone was paying attention.
Mom’s dad (aka Grandpa) and his three grandsons. Notice, again, I am the only one looking at the camera.
Bill and his first motorized wheels. Full tank of gas, bald tires, and no rules!
One of those pictures Mom makes you take and you only appreciate twenty-eight years later.
Jen and her first birthday cake!
Jen and Grandma Shipman.
Mom and Jen on the front stoop—contemplating the spirit of everything.

From left to right, family friend Susan Taft, Jennifer, and Jen’s aunt Chrissy. This was from Susan’s wedding. My aunt was the maid of honor and I was the best man!
Bill’s mom and the back of his head.
Beloved Aunt Chrissy.

The proud dad gets to walk Jen down the aisle.
The boys. Everyone except for the father of the bride accounted for. He’s probably doing a last-minute background check on me.
Us on St. Pete Beach on our wedding day.
Us walking “into the sunset.”
Someone must have said something funny!
My beautiful mom in her lovely dress. May I have this dance?
Just a good picture of Jen. Isn’t she pretty?
Will and Zoey in our driveway, hoping for rain!
Dad and Debbie and the five boys.
Zoey and Will in one of the modules in the NASA International Space Station . . . the one in Houston, not in space.
What happens in Houston stays in Houston.
Zoey loves her cupcakes. Even the plastic ones.
If Zoey tried to smile any more, her teeth might crumble. Happy Valentine’s Day!

Rocky and Maggie.
