Also from 2000.  You might be seeing a lot of these early photos on days I forget to take a picture.  Some of these I forgot even existed.

  My project lately has been to scan to my computer all of my photos that aren't digital.  These are from fourteen years ago.  Jeff was establishing his reputation as The Fun Uncle early on.

Tonight Jeff and I did something that we probably haven't done in five or six years.
 We browsed through a video rental store, looking for a movie to watch.  Honestly, I'm surprised these places still exist.  I guess when there's nothing in the theater, at Redbox, or on Netflix that you want to watch, this is what you're left with.

  I had to go to an appointment at dinnertime tonight, leaving the kids to finish dinner on their own.  When I came home, I saw this:
  I was confused at first about all theses random dishes on the countertop.  Until I realized that these are the clean dishes that were in the dishwasher.  Ryan, whose dish night it was, unloaded the dishwasher and loaded the dirty dinner dishes.  What a guy.

   Here is proof that I wasn't always such a dud when it came to NYE:
 Jeff and I went to an actual party with some friends.  Granted, this was 2000, probably the last time we did anything fun for the holiday.
And here's my nephew Pepper, also enjoying the new year.

  Having banana splits was about the only thing we did to celebrate New Year's Eve.  Shelbi and Sydney made an effort to at least stay up until midnight (Sydney didn't make it.)  I, on the other hand, went to bed at 11:something.  These poor children of a boring mother.

If I had done a few pushups it would have been a pretty good workout.
