Graduation!

My litte brother finally graduated from high school.  It has been many years in  progress and one extremely busy and involved senior year.  We are very proud of him for being a smart, funny, good young man.  He's headed to the University of Utah and on a mission.  We are all excited to see what life has in store for him.  Congratulations Willie!

 

His valedictory address included a metaphor about life as a shaved ice employee and rising from the bottom to the top.  My favorite part was when he said he wasn't sure if he was a pteradactyl or the star of the next Harry Potter movie.  He also spoke about being terrified in 3rd grade that he was never going to make it to 5th grade and once he did make it to 5th grade he knew he could do anything.  He ended that by telling the graduating class that in true Napolean Dynamite fashion that all their wildest dreams will come true.
