This is a shot in the dark, but do you happen to know any single men?  I'll explain, but Graham and I are trying to hook my sister up.  She's going to be 27. She's a cute, skinny little blonde.  Works as an X-ray tech... Haha.

yes! yes!  yes!!  lol- my brother!  He's 24 (almost 25) lives in DC, but wants to move back. I've been trying to hook him up with a Pitt girl. But if thats too young, FI and I have a bunch of friends in Pitt from college, I'll have to think of a good, cute guy. But I'm sure we do.  Are we thinking a surprise wedding date? lol

Oh poop, I didn't even think to mention it because it's my sister and I think nothing of it, but she has a 5 year old daughter.  I guess that could make a big difference to some ppl, especially younger guys.She's in this really crappy relationship.  The guy keeps dumping her, then they get back togehter... It's been going on for months.  He's no good for her or her daughter.  She was so close to being done with him, but she just won't take that next step.  Graham and I think she needs to meet another guy!  We've been trying for so long, but we just don't know anyone.  She even wants to meet another guy!  They were broken up during our shower, and we wanted to bring someone to the party afterward in the worst way so she could just have fun with someone else and realize there are other men in the world.  Graham is talking to her now and trying to get her to come to the wedding solo (and get rid of him forever).  Sorry, I made that sound like a complicated story.  It's really not that complicated.Only other thing, she lives 2 1/2 hours from Pgh in my hometown...  She just needs to have fun with new people and realize her life isn't stuck in that crappy little town with the same crappy guy.  Hope that made sense!

I completely understand! You need a cute, nice guy that she can have fun with for a while to remind her that there are some great guys out there.  And hopefully make her forget about her deadend BF. hmmm....Oh!!!  I have the perfect guy!  I can't believe I didnt think of this earlier.  My friend got divorced this past December. He has custody of his 1.5 year old daughter- who he adores. He's um... 28 or 29.  I can't remember, not in his 30s yet tho. Works kinda with me- at another bank tho. We have lunch once a week- and he's super nice.

sara, we'll have to figure something out.  even if it's not at the wedding...

marburs

yeah- whenever you want!  We should do a double date! To make them a little more comfortable.  I just emailed Mike and told him what I'm up to!  lol- I'll let you know how he reacts. I really want to do this (if Mike and your sis are game), so let's def get something together!

pinksonya

yeah, and maybe we can make it even more casual... like just hang out and party. let them find each other.  that could make it less awkward if they're totally not attracted to each other!

My cousin Joey met my sister's high school friend at our wedding.  They've been dating ever since!  It's also funny because she is a teacher and my cousin April has her for class and coaching.  You never know who might end up together!

Aw, that's so cute!  What a romantic way to meet!
