Well a few folks that are close to me know this already, but all of my friends outside of Michigan do not know. I am getting married Saturday, December 6th!!!

It has been hectic the last few months and Connie has taken on most of the planning duties. She has done a tremendous amount of work and also has done a fantastic job. She even organized a surprise bachelor party last weekend.

Our wedding will be fairly small - around 80 - and it starts at 1pm with the reception later that afternoon and evening. The really surprising thing to me is that the closer I get to the day, the calmer I actually get! I hope that trend continues; I think that it will.

Carly (Connie’s elder daughter) is my best man and Maisie (Connie’s younger daughter) is the maid of honor. The wedding party is the four of us. We are looking forward to being together in a single home - a great place to come home to every night.

My work has taken a lot of my time and Connie has done a great job doing so much to plan the wedding and reception. We head to Cancun on Sunday morning for seven warm days.

Thank you Connie for everything you have done for me - the best is yet to come.
