She’s Engaged!!
My sister is engaged!! We simply adore her fiance Dan and couldn’t be happier.
As I think I mentioned, my family is visiting us this weekend to celebrate Christmas – I know, I know, it is Valentines. It is the first weekend that worked out for us to get together. Well Dan decided Thursday night that he wanted to propose this weekend so that Matthew and I could be a part of it. How sweet is that!? My parents knew that he was going to propose, but they didn’t tell Matthew and me – mostly because Dan knew I would have a “glow” until he did it. lol.
Anyway, we were all done opening Christmas/Valentines gifts when he said, I have one more gift for you to my sister. Close your eyes. She was totally not expecting it, but when I saw him reach into his backpack, I was like, oh my gosh, he is going to propose and I am at a horrible angle to take pictures. 🙂 Here are a few good ones that I did capture.
The wedding will be in September 2010. We need to start saving, as I am the matron of honor, Matthew is a groomsmen and Elias will be the cutest ring bearer ever!!
My sister is already planning the wedding and asking my advice. I totally think I could have been a wedding planner, so I am happy to help. We are going to have so much fun.
I am over the moon happy for the two of them and so glad that Dan will forever be a part of our family. We couldn’t have asked for a better man for my baby sister.

That is just amazing! Congrats to them! Have fun planning! Great pics!

off topic: but the photo of their hands makes me feel like I should do sit ups. Or never have anyone photograph me like that since I wouldn’t look as good 🙂
Congratulations to your sister. I’m sure you will have a blast helping her plan all the details. What fun!

Congrats!!
I saw these pictures first on Facebook and thought they were stunning! I was wondering if they hired a professional photographer and if they did, why didn’t she catch on?? Great photos!
How cute is that? That was really neat that you got to be a part of it. I would have liked to have seen a close up of that ring though….looks really pretty.
