My Boise Family

I left a lot of family back home when I moved here from Minnesota, but a main reason I moved to Boise was to be closer to my family out here. My half-brother (whom I consider my brother) lives here in Boise along with his wife and three children. My brother was moved out of the house when I was born because he's a considerable amount older than me (18 years older to be exact). We've talked a lot throughout my life and I've always wanted to be closer to him, but he's always lived very far away from me. When he moved to Boise a few years ago to work for the University, I had a dream of attending BSU so I could be closer to him and his family. I'm also very close to his kids, I have two nephews and a niece who I consider a miniature version of myself. My parents also moved out here with me when I decided to come to Boise to be closer to me and their grandkids. I'm very grateful to have such a close family unit less than 5 miles from me. I still visit my parents every other weekend and am able to bike to my brother's house for some family bonding whenever I'd like to. I absolutely love the family aspect of my move to Boise.
