Joe's Graduation ----Yay! He did it!

I was able to fly up to Utah to see my brother graduate from BYU-Provo with a degree in IT. He seems to enjoy what he does and has even started a business of building webpages. Here was his graduation day!

My brother after receiving his diploma!! Just from the Marriott School alone, there were 600 students graduating. It was kind of neat because J.W. Marriott spoke at the graduation.

There I am, performing my fahu duties. I had to make sure there was a Kahoua lei for my brother.

Joe and Lupe, she's holding on to some of his lei's (the candy ones. LOL!).

The family that fed Joe (heehee). This is my sister and her family with Joe.

Here's one with my dad, Joe, Me, Tiana, her baby Martin, and Lupe at the bottom.

My dad and Joe. Look at all those beautiful lei's. A lot of people were staring at Joe. He did have great lei's on.

Joe and the Ellsworth's.

Here's one of the sisters and Joe. We are the ones that try and keep him in line. LOL! You know we love you Joe.


This is Lini Havea. Her and her family were in our ward growing up. She doesn't look like she aged at all. It's been so many years since I've seen her.

Joe and Morris Havea. This is one of Lini Havea's sons. I couldn't believe how grown-up he was. My last memory of him was when he was 6 y.o. It is so fun to see old friends.

Joe showing where he graduated from.

One with my dad and I.




This is one of my favorite pictures.


Afterwards, we went to PF Changs to celebrate. I wasn't feeling too well that night, but I'm sure the food was delicious. Everyone else seemed to enjoy it. Tiana and Papa relaxing.



A couple of fun shots of Dad and Lupe.


Me, Joe, and Secilia.

Group shot. This was the end. It was an enjoyable day, but long. I was extremely tired by this point. Congratulations again Joe!!

I was cracking up at Lupe with the leis she was "holding onto" for Uncle Joe.
