Sunsets

and the Cemetery.

This evening we went up to the East Lawn cemetery,
which is just a few blocks above our house.
 Gary's (Lewis) grandparent's are buried there.

As we were up there, I remembered Tiffany's love of sunsets. Anytime there was a beautiful one, she would rush up to the cemetery so she could see it in all it's glory. When she was getting married, she wanted to have her picture taken there with a sunset in the background.  On a day when it looked like there might be a pretty sunset, we had the photographer meet us up at the cemetery to take her bridal pictures.

There we were, with Tiffany looking beautiful in her wedding dress, when the caretaker came out.  When he saw Tiffany he said, "When I looked out and saw an angel, all dressed in white, I thought it must be the morning of the first resurrection." 

The sunset that evening didn't end up being a very vibrant one,
so she ended up using a picture with
Timpanogos in the background for her large bridal picture.
But, she definitely looks like an angel.


Happy Birthday, Tiffany!

Happy late birthday to a girl who indeed does look like an angel. I'll bet she is too. Like her momma.
