Special Weekend

So this was a very special weekend for my brother, he proposed to his girlfriend! I took a quick trip home to help out and be a part of the special day. He has been planning this for awhile and I even got to help him pick out the ring! Here is a little play by play of how the day went...

She woke up to a letter letting her know this was going to be a very special day for her and to be ready by a certain time....

Then my mom and I showed up at her house and gave her the next letter. She was shocked that I was there and then she learned we were there to take her shopping for a new outfit.

Shopping was a breeze and we found an outfit in no time. We actually found many dresses that looked great on her, but we decided on a classic black dress from J. Crew.

We took her back home where she was given the next letter saying she was going to lunch with her dad. 

(I dont have any pictures)

The next letter let her know she was going to get her nails done with her mom.

Then she had some time to relax and get ready for the big night.

Her brother drove her down to the JW Marriott downtown.

My brother worked here a few summers ago when it was being built so it was sentimental to him. 

He was able to get the presidential suite that had an amazing view overlooking the whole city.

He had decorated the room with candles and flowers for her. 

Here is the happy engaged couple!

Im so happy they found each other and now I get to finally have the sister I have always wanted!

I am looking forward to all the wedding plans!

Ps. sorry this is a week old, but I had a super busy week finishing our basement (post to come)

Just a week after their engagement, they went and picked up their new baby Jake!
