Grant and Heather's Wedding
| And so it was that on January 4, 2003, that Grant Schmitke and Heather Bright were married at the Battleground Baptist Church in Battleground, Washington. It was a wedding that those in attendance will remember as beautiful, warm and meaningful. |

The reception was held at
the Red Lion Hotel at the Quay. The evening activities were backed
by appropriate music provided by the DJ. A roast beef buffet dinner
allowed celebrants to visit with a select group at their table, before
moving on to the other events.

| Of course no one is
prouder of the bride and the groom, nor more relieved than the
parents. Mr. and Mrs. Mark Bright missed no detail in their
preparation for the big event, and they were ably assisted by Mr. and Mrs.
Glenn Schmitke.

| Weddings are a family
affair, and there were plenty of relatives of both the bride and the groom
present. Many of the guests were members of the Battleground Baptist
Church, or had connections in the greater Vancouver area, so there was an
easy affinity among those present.
Grant's older sister, Laura, moved among the tables, visiting as much as possible, but also chasing young Hailey and Morgan. |

A reception would not be complete without suitably roasting the bride and groom, and Grant's older brother, Ben, was happy to do his duty. |

Parting is such sweet
sorrow, especially for the newlyweds.
We want to wish Grant and Heather Schmitke all the best as they embark on their special journey. |
