Graduation Goals and Advice

On May 1st Stephanie hosted a graduation get together with help from several family members. I decided not to attend graduation and instead agreed to this very nice party.

Cole created this card for me. He wished me a "Con- graduation" this was very creative!

The Hortons made me a great poster. Caleb was quick to point out that he is supporting the Cougars and Marcus tried to be kind and write "Go Utes!"

For my graduation party each person stated his or her full name and then gave me goals and advice for my legal career. Here are the suggestion I was given:

Mom: Be nice and good.

Michelle Gillespie: Watch the movie Tangled.

Dad: Make a lot of money so you can take care of me.

Kris Gillespie: Get someone sentenced with the death penalty and remember that love should be multiplied not divided. Legalize Marijuana. “KELLY IT’S YOUR TURN”

Grandpa Bellows: Grateful to have a Perry mason in his family and to get a discount on legal work. Don’t frequent all the bars.

Grandma Bellows: Don’t use Judge Judy as your role model.

Kelly Gillespie: Don’t go with everyone’s advice. Don’t move out of state yet, or ever.

Matt Larsen: Help the Horton’s store by buying Ute Shirts.

Kerri Larsen: Try to distance yourself from the U of U, disconnect from it.

Deah Borders: Get a job at the Attorney General and find a date for Deah there. Don’t wear white socks with black pants or shoes.

Emily Burmester: Remember who you are and don’t smoke pot.

Andy Horton: Next time you sign up for a marathon, actually run it.

Stephanie Horton: Don’t forget to wear your gloves at the beach. Find a way to create less handicap parking.

Spencer Gillespie: Don’t hesitate to wear a power suit and defeat Rhome Zabriskie.

Angie Gillespie: Write a Will for everyone in the room and then have us guess who each one is for.

Alexis Anderson: Use the word “fabulous” in the court room.

C. Allen Cluff: Never give up on the library.

Thanks for the support and an awesome graduation party!
