Welcome to the Family!

This past week my brother snuck into town and lied through his teeth. While our family quietly shushed ourselves (no small feat!) with each ring of the phone, Billy proudly showed us the ring he created for his coming bride, our new sister in law, and now we can officially say... Aunt Andrea!

On Friday night he popped the question in a beautiful gazebo at the Opryland Hotel, surrounded by flickering candlelight and both sides of the families hiding in foliage! Mom arrived in the middle of last week and Dad got there just in time for the big night. We were honored that Billy wanted us to be a part and that he went out of his way to be sure it was special for her and for us all.

We laughed and cried and ate amazing Italian food. Oh and she said, "YES!" so I'd call that a pretty big success. Thankfully I didn't have to do any of the lying, but I did get to take the pictures... a lucky scenario for everyone! :)

Congratulations, guys! We'll never forget it. And welcome to the family, Andrea.

We're thrilled!
