The Brotherman

I cannot contain myself. My little brother will be joining the first half of the Coslett Clan in Utah in t-minus 14 days. YAY! For years my brother and I have been scheming to find ways to get him up here before the mish, and it's finally happening! We would have preferred to have been able to live together, but that didn't work out.

He found this great little house with a handful of RMs, right behind the BYU stadium... I'm sure the Lord has something special in store for him in this experience. (Dont think when we went to check out the house we didn't get pictures of 3 of his roommates, because we did...in true Coslett form. always camera ready)

Anyway, I am extremely excited. Celeste will be up here in a short two years with the mom and pops in tow, so WATCH OUT UTAH... the Coslett's are here for the take over. ha ha. I am so ecstatic!

I am thankful for... CJ!

1. CJ has a special relationship with each one of his sibs, and I really love ours. Me and Ceej have grown really close over the last 5 years, which you wouldn't think would happen, considering he lives in Tex and I live in Ute, but the 1500 miles haven't phased us at all. He has become one of my very best friends.

2. Me and Christian can talk for hours about whatever. It's actually great because we are both TERRIBLE at telling stories, we always ruin the punchline to things, and sometimes it's hard for us to verbally communicate what we're thinking, but we just get each other, so it's actually a nice break from the frustration of failing at trying to get our point across.


3. Animals and little kids/infants are instantly attracted to CJ. Its just an example of his very sweet heart and spirit, and it is an example to me of his pure inner-ness.

4. I love how me and CJ can get in a car and do the drive from Texas to Utah, or Arizona to Texas, or Texas to California, and not only do we not KILL each other, but we actually are laughing the whole time, or talking, or jamming out...with our air guitars and and air drums... haha... not many people can spend 20 hours in the car with someone and at your destination still have a smile on your face.

5.CJ and Heather are both the comedians in our families. They make us laugh ALL the time. I love his sense of humor, it's a good balance in our family, and it makes him so so easy to be around.

Ashley, you have a blog! I love it. CJ seems like quite the character. I swear he was like 10 the last time I saw him with his hockey arena-themed bedroom. That was crazy.

I love hearing Heather's laughter on that video...takes me back to good times!
