I can’t wait for April to arrive. The reason that I’m so excited for a month that is still awhile away is because someone in my family is getting married. Since I don’t know if you would be able to guess who it is, I will go ahead and tell you: it’s my sister! My sister and I have always been extremely close since we were little girls, and because of this, I get to be her maid of honor. As any girl will tell you, being asked to be the maid of honor in a wedding is the next best thing to actually getting married.

Although there are a ton of fun things that go along with being the maid of honor, it is also a position that requires a whole lot of work. Because of this, I have been quite busy in the past months, and I know that I will only continue to get more busy up until the day of the wedding. Since my sister is having her wedding in Chicago, most all of us who are attending have had to make travel arrangements to get to that city. For example, I have already arranged for my car rental and flight, and I also made the reservation for the hotel where just about all of my family members will be staying.
