Two of my brothers, Carlos and Danny, graduated this month. I didn't want to miss their special day so Cally and I flew out to Denver to celebrate with them. The first to graduate was my brother Carlos who graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Criminal Justice. He has worked very hard to get this degree and I could not be more proud of him. Along with this huge accomplishment he also just purchased a brand new house and has moved in with Valonika, his girlfriend.With a degree under his belt, a mortgage to pay, and a serious relationship I'm realizing that my little brother is not so little anymore. Congratulations Carlos on all your amazing accomplishments! I'm so happy for you!
We had a few days between Carlos' graduation and Danny's graduation so I spent that time hanging out at home with the family, catching up, and letting the grandparents enjoy Cally. They were so happy to have her back and she spent everyday playing around in grandma's kitchen and out for walks with grandpa. Zane flew in midweek and was able to hang out with us as well. While he was there, we took the opportunity to go visit old friends, Dustin and Kathy Nabhan and tour the beautiful Garden of the Gods in Colorado Springs.

Finally, it was Danny's turn to wear the cap and gown. Danny graduated from Prairie View High School and it was so great to watch him walk the line and into adulthood. Now that he's a high school graduate he has gotten his first job and is planning on going to college to continue his education. I still can't believe how old Danny is now, he's always been my baby brother! I never thought this day would come so soon! Congratulations Danny! I'm so proud of you! The world is at your fingertips now!
