I'm Getting A Brother!

Being the eldest of 4 girls I always wanted a brother.. with each pregnancy we'd wonder would this be when we get a brother? And since my dad's name is Ernie and we were brought up on Sesame Street we always thought if there was a boy that naturally he'd be named Bert! :) (for some reason Dad never got as much of a kick out of that as we did!).

So it is with great excitement that I announce I'll be getting a brother.. no, my parents aren't having a child - my sister Sarah is going to marry Mike, so he'll become our brother (in-law)... She was down in Orlando over the weekend and he proposed at sunset (after they had watched sunrise on the east coast of Florida, gone ice skating in Orlando and sunset on the west!) and she said yes! Get this - in his proposal he said the day captured what he hoped for: to spend sunrises and sunsets with her and to live through seasons of warmth and sand and seasons of cold and snow and ice - wow, what a cool thoughtful guy! So yeah! They are planning an end of March wedding in Orlando.

We really like Mike, and just hope he realizes that not only is he getting a wife but 3 sisters as well! This is going to be fun!
