Aimee’s about to begin a new part of her life
A part that will make her Chris’ new wife
No longer a Booth, will she be called by name
Instead, a Delnero, which she can proudly proclaim
But before she exchanges vows and officially says ‘I do’
I need to describe my little sister, for those who never knew
Aimee is the youngest child, the last from Jeni and Joe
Before her came Claire, then yours truly, her big bro
We grew up in the metropolis known as Reno
As kids in the buffet, we’d play pretend Keno
We didn’t have the luxury known as cable TV
So we all got to watch Aimee’s favorite movie
The hills were alive with the Sound of Music
She watched until she knew every single lyric
The rest of us heard all those songs for many years
Then came New Kids on the Block, my poor, poor ears
As a family we went on some long summer trips
I would count Corvettes while Aimee counted Rabbits
We drove across the country from Reno to the east
Stopping at many McDonald’s to enjoy a family feast
Aimee loved her burgers, but ate them rather slow
So she usually missed the French fries before we had to go
Aimee was unlike her siblings in the activities she preferred
She chose music over my sports and Claire’s written word
She tried the flute, the piano and finally the trombone
She mastered every one, even the xylophone
To me it was all noise, which interfered with my day
I’d moan and groan and escape outside to play
But despite all my cries and calls to quiet down
She stuck with it and became one of the best around
When it came time to head off to that place that we called Hug
She became the band leader and rose above a school of thugs
Some people would say she was just a band geek
Myself included, but always tongue-in-cheek
She survived football seasons and finally did graduate
And earned herself a trip to the great Centennial state
She settled down in a place populated with Rams
She played her music and passed all of her exams
Then off to rural life, way up in the hills
She found a community, to teach her music skills
Not satisfied with the life in a small town
She jetted back to school to wear another gown
This time she would leave with a mightier degree
She found a new job, teaching in Jefferson County
Her plan had come together; she was just missing a soul mate
Then along came Chris Delnero, to take her on a date
The two hit it off, without skipping a beat
Quickly their two lives had become very complete
While Aimee instructed kids in the fine art of music
Chris was preparing for the day all the astronauts got sick
It took a little while but Aimee finally found her life crush
Albeit to a man who got paid to make things flush
All joking aside, I welcome Chris to the family
I couldn’t be happier for my little sister, Aimee
A part that will make her Chris’ new wife
No longer a Booth, will she be called by name
Instead, a Delnero, which she can proudly proclaim
But before she exchanges vows and officially says ‘I do’
