Happily Ever After?
My sister sent me this picture of our great grandparents on their wedding day.
Now vintage pics like this one (as cool as they are to look at) are also to me a
bit sad. The people in them never really smile and it makes you wonder if
perhaps they weren't really all that happy. I know that times were hard back
in those days but you would think that a wedding would be something to
celebrate and that those involved would at least show some kind of emotion
on their faces. I didn't know my great grandparents so I don't know what the
story of their lives was all about but I would like to think that what this photo
lacks in my eyes isn't something that affected the way they lived or the way
felt about each other. I'm sure there's an interesting story there, maybe I
should ask my grandmother.....

I agree but maybe they were scared. You put on the grown up clothes and from now on are supposed to provide and take care of each other but I guess it really is just a traditional portrait pose. Still, would been nice to know their story
