Mi Familia

This week was my dad´s 58th birthday and this weekend we are going to the mountains to celebrate it so I am going to write about my family. There are a total of five people in my family. My mom, dad, brother, sister, and me. My parents met in college and got married right afterwards. My dad furthered his education in optometry school and then they settled down in a small little town to raise children. First came my brother whom is nine years older than me. He lives in the mountains of North Caroline with his Australian Shepherd dog, Payton. Joe is somewhat of a free spirit, not in the spiritual sense but he just likes to do his own thing when he wants to do it and how he wants to do it. Consequently, he has not yet found a young lady to accompany him in his mountainous lifestyle. We are hoping that this will change. :) Next is my sister Rebekah whom is six years older than me. She just got married last August and lives with her husband in Greenville with their little dog, Bela. Payton and Bela will both be accompanying us this weekend in the mountains and they are quite humorous together. Bela is about a quarter of Payton's size and Payton tries to herd her around because of her natural animal instincts. I am looking so forward to seeing my family this weekend! We don't all get together that often anymore so the times that we do are very special. I absolutely adore my family and hope that everyone is able to experience that kind of love in life!
