Andi and Kyle are Engaged!

We recently received some wonderful news in the Wiebmer family! Kyle proposed to my sister, Andrea, on Virginia Beach, near where each other them lived in D.C. The spot has extra significance to Andi -- our mom, used to spend her summers there. Andi and Kyle's dog, Charlie was there for the special moment (yes, two Charlies in the family -- ours is Charles and theirs is Charlemagne). Andi said there were people all around them soaking in the sun, but it was as if they were the only two people on the beach...

We are thrilled to have Kyle join our family! He is hilarious -- a seemingly quiet guy who tears it up on the dance floor and has a way of making us laugh really hard. He's so sincere and interesting -- a hard worker, who carries himself with integrity. But best of all, he's completely devoted to Andi. We love to imagine the fun that Andi, Kyle, Mollie, Kenny, Rob and I will have together as our lives unfold.

Andi will be such a lovely, exuberant bride, with her grace, generosity and effervescent personality. She's a nurse, and worked in a pediatric clinic in D.C until a week ago when she and Kyle moved to St. Louis for the next step in his medical residency. They remind us of our grandma and grandpa, a nurse and ENT, who fell in love and quickly married before my grandpa left for war.

Andi and Kyle are planning a fall wedding. We can't wait! Madeline was already officially calling for "Uncle Kyle" when the happy couple visited in Minneapolis.
