So the Buckeyes blessed their wedding with a victory, and they were lifelong fans. They sound like a really savvy couple, to do things their own way and carefully take every step they wanted to take. And your Grandma Wilma is really cute!Mariann Reganhttp://mariannregan.authorsxpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8939752311253681195.post-91971644712139900592012-11-28T22:57:19.540-05:002012-11-28T22:57:19.540-05:00So glad you enjoyed it, Gini.

It had to have been so hard to keep that secret. I'll have to ask my Mom and aunt if they know how the families received the news.

From what you wrote, it sounds like they wouldn't have had parental approval. Do you know why?
