"going away to college"

this week has been a bunch of crazy business. i've been playing chauffeur for my little sister as my parents are hanging out in a bungalow somewhere on the beach, and i swear i panic at least once a day wondering where i'm supposed to be at what time to make sure i'm not missing class or making rebecca miss some after school activity or another. that girl has got one heck of a schedule. today i took her to SLC for a cheerleading competition... it was pretty entertaining to watch all the groups competing, and wonder who on earth came up with remixes to some of their music they danced to. her group did awesome, and it was fun to watch her being all peppy.
what i didn't know about today was that it was going to be all blizzardy as soon as i started driving. it made for an interesting drive up and back, especially with all the added construction going on at all times in this blasted state. fortunately, we made it home safe and in time for a no-parents-are-home-party. or...maybe just a congratulations-you-got-accepted-to-BYU party for my little brother. it's so weird he's going to college. isn't he like, 12 still?
anyway, we took a picture for you Mom, since you weren't around to take one. look what thoughtful kids we are. the little grandchildren weren't really into the picture taking thing yet, but they'll learn.
