griffin and gretchen


congratulations to my cute little niece gretchen and her new husband griffin!

we spent a beautiful day last thursday with them as they were sealed in the salt lake temple. then over to the lion house for a luncheon, where we watched as griffin sat gretchen on a chair in front of him and played his guitar as he tried to sing a song (that he had learned just for her, because he knew she liked it) as his voice quivered. it was so cute and you could see the love they have for each other. it was a beautiful sunshiny day, and their reception was just as beautiful. i got to spend some time with all of my favorite people at some time during the day. watching g & g all day, seeing the glow they had, as they were constantly looking into each others eyes. knowing that they love each other so much and want to be together forever, made me stop and think about how lucky i am to be married to my best friend and sweetheart. yes it's been a lot of years, but, i still love him and love to be with him whenever, doing whatever. thanks gretchen and griffin for letting me spend this special day with you. and may you have many, many, more special days in your lives!
