College bound

Well it finally happened...my little sis started BYU. Last weekend I met up with my family in Salt Lake to see my little sister off and help her get settled in. I can't believe she's a college girl. She's already called me a few times with "oh my gosh what do I do?" My only rule is I have to screen her dates...no losers for her. And my parents are officially empty nesters...they really don't like all that much. I wanted Enoch to come really bad but he had to work :( I wanted him to be able to talk to my extended family more. He did a little at our wedding much not too much. There were too many people there to talk to.

That's my cousin Laura, Steph, me, then my mom and my sis, looking all goofy. She doesn't like have her picture taken all that much.

Friday night my dad's brothers and their families met up with us at Maddox for a family tradition. Every time someone is in town in SLC, we get together and eat there. So so good. The raspberry butter is the best. I've tried to copy it but it didn't taste the same. It was also pretty significant because the last time our family had gathered like that was for our wedding and before that, it was probably 8 years. My dad's mom was always the one to organize family reunions and getogethers and last Friday was the 12th anniversary of her passing away so we all had a little moment for her. She was probably very happy that we all got together.

My sister had to get an apt with girls that were juniors and seniors so she's going to be the odd one out for a bit but I had so much fun in college so I know she'll be just fine. She's going to try to get a job at Gold's Gym since she's addicted to working out. But I think she'll get a job just fine. She's going into communications, for now. My guess is she'll be a personal trainer. She loves the gym.
