she said yes!


it's true! and i'm finally allowed to blog about it!

tonight, my little brother proposed to his girlfriend, kristine.
and she said yes!

weeks and months of planning came together in a night that ended by the snoqualmie falls, in which mike got down on one knee...to hear "oh my gosh! oh my gosh! oh my gosh!" in one of the most successful surprises in our family history. he surprised her with a private dining room at the salish lodge, bringing our family together with the salber family to celebrate. so much fun to meet them...especially dressed as i was when i first saw them. :)

michael and kristine. both from strong catholic families. with supportive, loving parents. blessed with fabulously good looking and caring sisters. :)

the captain of the football team and the tiny ballerina. you couldn't find a better match.

mikey, thank you for letting me part of this evening in such a special way. i love you, little brother, and i'm so proud of you. you 'got yourself a blonde'!

kristine, you are a blessing to mike, and to our family. thank you for taking such good care of him, and for loving him as you do. and i've always wanted a sister!!

to both of you, i spent time last night in front of the blessed sacrament, praying for you as you begin to embrace the vocation of marriage. i pray that your faith will be your rock and guide as you tackle life's adventures together. i love you two.
