family matters

i was confused about the chronology of this one but i think i have it figured out now. you can see the date has been changed - i think because i had dated it retroactively in january 2008, forgetting that the previous month had occured in 2007. it makes sense because that's the year that steve, carly and the twins (pictured) were in town for xmas.

while they were here, we saw steve play in a soccer game with his old teammates, hence the outfit and juggling. what we did not see was laura doing a skateboard trick. artistic license, i guess. maybe that was around the time i first got my hands on "skate" for xbox 360.

mom and dad make a rare appearance here as well. what's more predictable is that something normal (like baby nephews) made me think of something nerdy to draw (like robot suits inspired by a half-remembered arcade game from the pizza hut by my house as a kid).

thanks a lot, brain.
