familia

i graduated two weekends ago. graduated. it is finally over. i have been working on that degree for soo long, and now it is done. this hasnt really sunk in yet. more about the graduation later. my family came up for the weekend to celebrate with me. it was good to see them and show them around portland a bit.

i just realized that i dont have any pictures of me with everyone (mom, dad, brother & brother's girlfriend) - so i'll just put up a few pictures and try to include everyone.

i love having a big brother. and i'm trying to work on getting him and his girlfriend to move to portland so i can enjoy the benefits of a big brother more often. my car stereo and clock have been out of commission for quite some time. probably over six months. it was only a broken fuse and i know that is a really easy fix, but i couldnt figure out how to get the darn cover off the fuse boxes (either of them) and so i lived with no music or no timepiece in my car for entirely too long. but while kevin was here he was kind enough to spend some time on my car and fixed it in a jiffy. seriously, like 10 minutes and it was done. it's like having a brand new car. i can play cd's and listen to my ipod again. and now i know what time it is. did i mention that i love that man? its such a small thing, but it really makes me feel loved when someone does something like that without even a blink of the eye. he just took my keys and took care of it. beautiful. so thank you kevin, you are a blessing to me. now just move to portland so i dont have to pay to get my oil changed. hee hee.

my favorite brother and future sister-in-law (?? :)
