Wedding Countdown - One Week to Go!

So excited for these two! One week from today, our daughter, the lovely Emily, will marry the wonderful Matthew.  I can't wait!

I believe this is their first date - over 5 years ago.  They are both Chicago White Sox fans, and in a city with two baseball teams, that is huge!  These two knew right away that they were meant for each other.

They also attend as many Notre Dame football games a year as possible.  Matt got his undergrad there - and now the whole family cheers for the Irish!  Emily and Matt were just home (from Austin, Texas, where they live now) for a game last weekend.  They have lots of fun together, no matter what they do.

Aren't they cute together? They really love and respect each other, and take good care of each other.  I'm a proud mama, can you tell?

This "big day" was over a year ago, the day she said yes!  I can't believe how fast this year has flown!  Now we just have a few little details to take care of, and then - the BIG day on 9-19-15.  Scott and Hannah will sing "Come What May" from Moulin Rouge, with me on the piano, and the string trio accompanying us.  Emily has lined up the strings to play such gorgeous music, including lots of Bach, which I love!
Next blog post will include wedding pictures!
