So this post has two parts. One is for my sister’s graduation and the other is for my brother’s release from incarceration.

My sister graduated from the University of Utah with her Bachelor’s degree in Business Management. She immediately got a job at the University hospital administration department. She is so smart! I’m so proud of her! My whole family came in to town to have a barbeque in her behalf. It was lots of fun! We played volleyball and hacky sack, which I hadn’t played for years. My brother-in-law then barbequed some cheeseburgers and hot dogs. Yummy! It was nice to have my entire immediate family there. It’s been a long time since we were all in the same location. We took lots of pictures. This brings me to my second part of this post.

My brother has been incarcerated for the last 3 years so we haven’t seen much of him at all. He finally got out and seems to be doing very well. He seems to have his priorities and goals in order more. I really hope he stays out of trouble. I’d hate for him to go away again. I missed him. So it’s nice to see him and spend time with him again. He’s so big now…he worked out a ton while locked up. He helped me move a washer and dryer into my apartment and he carried the whole dryer by himself. Just picked it right up and put it over his shoulder. Crazy!!!
