Daniel recruited the help of their puppy Peighton to ask Beth to marry him. Daniel being the casinova that he is, had the house where he proposed, of course no less than breathtaking. Still in shock by the beauty of the roses, the candles, and the song he recorded previously, Beth was frozen with too many emotions to describe. Then, from around the corner, here comes Peighton with a little white box around her neck. After Beth realized what it was, Daniel was down on his knee...and...she said yes...with tears in her eyes.They allowed us to help document their love for one another, and what a joy it was. The way they looked at eachother when they thought we weren't looking, was beauty all in its own.
I was a little nostalgic while photographing the two of them. Though Beth, only a few years younger, I couldn't help but think of her when she was little. The way she helped me escape the dreaded meatloaf smothered in ketchup, the way I would wake her up from her nap and then act like she had magically just waken up so that I could play with her, the way her hair was ALWAYS cut the same, and the way she was always there for me...is always there for me. I love you B.
I know I can speak for David and myself when we say, "D, welcome to the family!" Although the time I have known you is much shorter, you have been there and encouraged us countless times. We are so excited for you two. We love you and can't wait for the big day!

Wow! I don't even have words to describe how I feel right now...I cannot hold back the tears either. There is no one in my family other than my own children that I have ever been closer to and I love B as much as if she were my own. I am overwhelmed at the thought of her being all grown up and married...however I also have to say...Daniel, I think I could safely speak for the entire family in saying we can't see B with anyone but you and you already are family to us..you captured our hearts shortly after you won B's with your genuine love and compassion for your family and friends, combined with the way you take care of Sweet B is a testament of your character and commitment to those you love! Congratulations to you both (and to all of us) we are blessed to have you both in our lives!!! Love Aunt Kim :)
