As I said in my last post, we recently asked our friends and family to stand up for us on our big day. My baby brother will be standing up for us and we Skyped with him to ask since he was at school in Missouri at that time, though he is now home in Oskaloosa for the summer. He has his own personal musings blog and this is what he wrote our upcoming nuptials:

"Today, I got asked to be a groomsman at my sisters wedding! I am super pumped that she is getting married to a great guy! November 10th, remind me to mark that day down, as it is when the wedding will take place!"

My family is not great at communicating our feelings with one another, though as us kids have become adults we've gotten better. Charlie was also super psyched for us when I called to tell him Vince proposed and then when I read his post it just made me smile. Love you, brother. And congrats on finishing your first year of college!
