Letter #9 "I am smiling because you are my brother. I am laughing because there is nothing you can do about it!" ~Unknown

Dear Brother,

I love you. Thank you for letting me hug you. Thank you for letting me tease you. I know you have the muscles to stop me but, it's nice when you don't. Thank you for having such a funny sense of humor. It's a lot more quiet these days but, still funny.

Thanks for letting me teach you dances when we were younger. If not for the home videos, no one would believe me you danced to Backstreet Boys with awesome choreography. I'm pretty sure we even did a dance to the 12 Days of Christmas.

Thank you for being your own person. I know you are going to do great things. You are so smart and talented. It still amazes me that you designed a website for the U of U. You were still in high school too! Thank you for accepting my husband into the family. It really means a lot to me. You are such a great brother.

Thank you for playing board games with me. I hate that you win Risk every time though :) How are you so good? Even though you always win whatever game we play, I love hanging out with you.

Thank you for being such a great artist. The picture of Elvis you did is amazing! I wish I was as creative and skilled as you. Thank you for being certified to marry people. It's so funny! I still laugh when I think about the time you first told us about it. We were eating dinner and you looked at me and said, " You know, I could marry you. Legally." We all stared at you thinking you meant you could be my husband. After a few awkward seconds you clarified and said you got a license online to legally marry couples. I laughed for a long time!! Thank you. I love you!
