Felicidades Brook y Sara

My "little" brother got married last weekend to my wonderful new sister-in-law. It was a really beautiful wedding complete with my brother crying as Sara walked down the isle, to the ring bearer who wanted to know why he wasn't wearing a bear suit. Perhaps ring carrier would have been a more helpful title for a 3 year old.

The pastor, who my brother has known since high school, reminded us that Brook and Sara will never be enough for each other. That no matter how much they love each other, Christ is the only one who will ever completely fulfill them. He also told them to look at one another through the eyes of Christ. It was a good message for all of us to hear, married or not.

So here is a picture of the beautiful bride and the hairy groom.

My brother asked my dad to grow a beard for the blessed event. He has never had a beard in my lifetime, so I had to get a picture. My mom hated the beard, it came off the day after the wedding.

These two are next.

That's my little sister Katy and her fiance Jon, they're getting married in May if they ever decide on a reception site.

Fall is finally here!

Now that I'm blogging about it, the temperature will probably return to 80 degrees tomorrow. But today it was sunny and 65. This is my favorite season! Mostly because there’s no humidity (at least in Maryland) and you know that Thanksgiving and Christmas are right around the corner. I’m still waiting for the leaves to change, which is my other favorite thing about fall.

In other news, I'm inundated with information about newborn hearing screening these days. I'm giving a very brief presentation on hearing screening to a group of undergraduates. Any ideas on how to make them interested in a topic like this?

Time to go enjoy a nice pumpkin spice latte at Starbucks. Happy fall everyone!
