Taylor Swift’s brother, Austin must really love his big sis to pose for this  family picture she tweeted recently. Apparently, she took a trip to Germany and thought her brother would just love a German costume for his birthday. Happy birthday little bro, I bought you some lederhosen…probably not what he was expecting but what a good sport to pose for this picture, stein in hand. Ooompah!

Even Taylor Swift got in on the German costume theme dressing in an outfit reminiscent of a Bavarian girl. I just love the expression of her looking up at her brother. Perhaps this photo was his idea since Austin, 19, is an aspiring photographer. In any case it really shows their mutual affection for one another. Taylor and her brother are very close. He has been her date to several red carpet events and I think she is very lucky to have a brother like him. If I told my brother that I wanted to take a picture of him in lederhosen and tweet it to over 6 million followers he would probably kill me!
