This chapter is shorter than most of my chapters have been but since I put Ty and Amy's wedding vows in I figured all would be satisfied. I hope you like the chapter you got a little bit of everyone in it.

Ty looked at his soon to be wife. "From this day on, I promise you everything with all the love in my heart. To live with you and laugh with you; to stand by your side; to be joy to your heart; to bring out the best in you always, and, for you, to be the most that I can. I promise to laugh with you in good times, to struggle with you in bad; to solace you when you are downhearted; to wipe your tears with my hands; to comfort you; to mirror you with my soul; I will remain forever faithful to you, and I will always be here for you, as long as we both shall live."
Amy looked at Ty and took a breath before she began her own vows, "From this day on, I promise to give you the best of myself and to ask of you no more than you can give. I promise to accept you the way you are. I fell in love with you for the qualities, abilities, and outlook on life that you have, and won't try to reshape you in a different image. I promise to respect you as a person with your own interests, desires, and needs, and to realize that those are sometimes different, but no less important than my own. I promise to keep myself open to you, to let you see in to my personal world, my innermost fears and feelings, secrets and dreams. I promise to grow along with you, to face change with you. I promise to love you in good times and in bad. I promise to be faithful to you forever and always."
"I now pronounce you man and wife." The preacher looked at Ty. "You may kiss your bride."
Amy and Ty kissed then turned to the crowd as 'Mr. and Mrs. Ty Borden'.

Jack and Lisa watched as Ty and Amy danced a slow dance. "She's all grown up and married." Jack said with a hint of emotion in his voce
Lisa looked at the couple. "Yes she has grown up a lot."
Jack looked across the yard at Marion who was standing where the tent should have been talking to Maggie. "How do you think she has handled her mom coming back?"
"Amy is a lot like you. She resents her mum for leaving. She compares Marion to Tim whom left her as well. So honestly not bad, but not like Lou. Probably more like you."
"And what about you, how are you handling it?"
Lisa looked at Jack. "She really does not like me."
"Why would she not like you?"
"I don't know why it could be because I married you."
"Why would she dislike you for marrying me?"
"I can imagine coming home and finding my father had remained. When my father married my step mum I hated her. I never did like her. And she never liked me. When my father died he left me the business and gave my sister a majority of the money. And to top that I got my mum's house in France, she was shore she would get that. After all that was over she moved to the states and I haven't spoken to her since. I can imagine how Marion feels and certainly why she doesn't like me."
Jack not shore what to do with all the information he had been given changed the subject. "You never talk about your family."
"You are all the family I really have left. I have Ben but since Lorie died, he has gone back to his old self. Like when he first started working here. And Lorie was never really family; she had hated me since dad died."
"For what?"
"I married Dan then left for the states Lorie stayed and helped at Fairfield then when my father died he left Fairfield to me. And my mums place in France too. Lorie was so mad. She went and stayed with some relatives in France and that was all I heard from her. Until she showed up and said that she was sick."
"I can remember that day." Jack said
"It's not one I can forget ether. Both my mother and sister die of cancer what are the odds."
"It could have been hereditary."
Lisa shook her head. "It's not likely. My mother had bran Cancer and Lorie had bone cancer."
Jack looked at Lisa. "Why don't we change the subject."
"Yes please let us. We are at a wedding we should not be talking about cancer and death."
Jack took her hand and led her towed the dance floor. "How about a dance?"
Lisa smiled. "Gladly."

Marion looked at the dance floor she smiled as her two daughters danced with their husbands. They were both marred now, all grown up, Lou had a little girl and Amy was a newlywed bride.
"They grow up so fast." Tim said approaching her from behind.
"Yea. I missed so much of their lives."
"So did I." Tim looked at Marion
"But we are both here now and I suppose that is what matters."
Tim looked at his ex-wife, "Do you want to dance?"
Marion was surprised by his being so direct. "With you?"
Tim nodded.
Marion thought for a moment. "Yes." She took Tim's hand and allowed him to lead her to the dance floor.

Amy and Lou sat at one of the tables eating wedding cake. "How does it feel to be married?" Lou asked Amy.
"I am going to have to get used to my new last name."
"Where is Ty at?"
"I told him that I wanted more cake and that he should dace with is mom." Amy said pointing at the dance floor.
Lou looked at the dance floor and gasped. "Amy look!"
"What?" Amy looked around.
"Mom and dad are dancing! Together."
