Earliest memories of dad

Teri and I first dated in high school.  She also had a brother named Tom, and one of her older sisters had a long-term boyfriend also named Tommy, so I was the third Thomas to be hanging around the house.  She was one of nine siblings, though (at least) the oldest two were no longer living at home when we started dating.  I remember being intimidated meeting them for the first time, but really don't recall anything about the encounter.  But I do recall being welcomed to their home for dinner, and coming over to swim in the summer while we were dating.  Not too often for the latter, though, as we had an on-again-off-again high school relationship, and so there were no summer-long stretches of going over to their house to swim several times a week.  But dad was friendly and welcoming from the beginning.
