Happy Birthday, Joey

Thursday, August 27, 2009

Today is our youngest son, Joey's 23rd birthday - HAPPY BIRTHDAY JOEY! It has been a joy raising our three children. Being a Mom and Dad is the Best job EVER and we wouldn't change it for the world. Growing up Joey loved to play baseball. We always let the kids try any sport they wanted but Joey only cared about baseball. He played Little Leaque for Georgetown and then played for Hudsonville High School. He mostly played short stop, but he was a key bunter, breaking a long standing record for Hudsonville in Career Sacrifice Bunts - only to have his record broken tree years later. Now Joey works at Gentex full time and is renting a townhouse with our other son Jeff.
This is Joey at 9 months old.


Here is one of his senior pictures taken in downtown Grand Rapids




This photo was taken early this spring at Hockey Town in Detroit which is right across the street from Comerica Park. Dale and Joey went to the game together. Joey is not looking too happy as the thought of watching a game in 36 degree weather, is enough to make anyone unhappy, and the Tigers lost 2-4 to Los Angeles Angels of Anahiem.
