My Little Sis Graduated!!!

In May, my little sister (Danielle) graduated with her Masters in Architecture at the University of Utah! What an accomplishment! We are so proud of you Danielle! We had such a fun day celebrating and hanging out with friends and family! Here are some pictures to prove it :)

Danielle and Brittany (they stuck by eachother every step)! BFFAEAE

Cassidy told me that BFFAEAE = BEST FRIENDS FOREVER AND EVER AND EVER!

AUNT KIKI, TATA, AND MY MOM

WHILE WE WERE PATIENTLY WAITING FOR THE GRADUATION TO START, DANI AND BRITT WERE POSING FOR ALL SORTS OF PHOTOGRAPHERS IN THE BACK OF THE ROOM. IT WAS LIKE A 30 MINUTE PHOTO SESSION OF THESE TWO HOTTIES!

AUNT KAKI AND DANIELA

LIKE MOTHER, LIKE DAUGHTER :)

YES. SHE WAS WEARING CLOTHES UNDER HER GOWN. EVEN AFTER ALL OF THE CRAZY DARES!

MIKE AND DANI (ANOTHER ONE OF THOSE BFF'S)!

DANIELA WITH HER PROUD HUBS...BWANDON...

AFTER THE GRADUATION, WE CAME BACK TO MY HOUSE TO ENJOY SOME CHILEAN EMPANADAS MADE BY MY MOM (AND LOTS OF OTHER FOOD!) IT WAS SUCH A FUN CELEBRATION! WE PLAYED MUSIC, SANG, ATE, LAUGHED, CHATTED, AND ATE AGAIN.

YOU CAN'T TELL BY THIS PICTURE, BUT I REALLY WAS PRESSURED INTO PLAYING SOME OF MY FAVORITE BANJO SONGS...BRITTANY'S WHOLE FAMILY WAS CLAPPING THERE HANDS SAYING..."BANJO, BANJO, BANJO, BANJO" AND I COULDN'T HANDLE THE CONSTANT NOISE :)

HERE ARE SOME BEAUTIFUL FLOWERS SENT FROM MIKE AND EM FROM OREGON!

CASS AND MOM EVEN SANG A FEW TUNES...
