The wedding

Gopher was really nervous about marrying Julie and being the best husband to her, and to make matters worse the child welfare worker was coming back on board to see the Captain, Gopher and Julie and see if the girls will be perfect fit for the three of them. The Captain felt good this time around and he knew he was going to keep little Marisol Stubbing as his other daughter, but Gopher and Julie were on pins and needles. Julie have been feeling the nerves extra hard cause of the wedding.

"Julie are you okay in there?" Gopher asks her cause she got sick after she heard about the child welfare worker coming on board cause she wanted to show she was a great mom to Gretel.

"Just fine I think the wedding nerves, and the actual adoption is getting to me is all" she says from the bathroom.

Gopher been trying to assure her she is doing everything that she can in her power that Gretel is safe, and helping her with the wedding plans, and anything else that he could think of cause they were going to be getting married in a couple of days, and his mom, and her parents were coming board as well as his sister, and her aunt as well, and both families were coming on board.

"Julie, we got to hurry if we wanna meet my mom, and your parents, and anyone else from both sides for the wedding cruise" he says as he knocks cause Vicki took Gretel to get ready cause the Captain got her a mini uniform almost like the one that Vicki wore after she came fully on board the princess.

"Gopher you might have to go without me cause I'm not leaving the bathroom at all for nothing" Julie says from the bathroom as she was getting sick still.

Gopher was going to see if Doc could check Julie out after they got underway cause he was really worried about her especially if the Captain finds out she wasn't helping passengers board.

"Hey Gretel, you look really pretty" Gopher says when he saw his daughter all beautiful in her princess cruise uniform and she had her little name tag on as well.

Gretel smiled big for her daddy.

"I say besides mommy who is not feeling the best right now I am with the most beautiful girl on board" he says as he carried her to the lobby where he was going to be greeting passengers at especially his mom and her folks.

Soon the Captain and Marisol arrive

"Marisol looks just as cute as Gretel does in her uniform" Gopher says as he saw Marisol's uniform as well cause the Captain hated to have her ruin her pretty dresses for the child welfare worker.

"I know she does, and I wanted to go easy this round and have her get dressed up only when needed cause she hates her dresses right now" Merrill says as he carried her in his arms cause she woke up with a little head cold, and Adam was watching her closely for RSV.

Vicki gave her father a look on why she had to wear them, but Marisol was excused from wearing dresses.

"Vicki, I wanted you to look presentable, and Marisol is a baby, so I am allowed to bend the rules a bit, but I am going to have Marisol be in her dresses for dinner, and when I take her to the lounge for some entertainment before bed" Merrill says as he looks at Vicki.

"Looks like my mom was the first on board and it looks like she is ready to spoil Gretel" Gopher says when he saw his mom with packages for Gretel already.

"Julie's parents aren't too far behind either" Merrill says when he saw Julie's parents come on board.

"Oh, Gopher she is so beautiful" Gopher's mom says when she saw Gretel for the first time.

"Thanks mom and let her warm-up to you guys cause she thinks of you guys as strangers right now" he says as Gretel hides her face from both sets of grandparents.

Julie's dad was in love with Gretel as well and he could not wait to spend time with her.

Gopher told his mom and Julie's parents what room number was theirs so they could unpack and go on deck and see everyone off.

"I am okay with that cause I am staying on for a few cruises, so if you and Julie want to be alone you guys have a sitter to watch her, and we get to bond" Gopher's mom says to him.

Gopher was thankful that his mom was going to be on for a few cruises, so they could have a proper honeymoon without Gretel being there. Even though he loved being with her every second of every day, and sometimes they even get in a nap together, but he needs his space from his little girl, so some alone time with Julie is needed especially after they get married cause they needed some alone time together.

"Thanks mom if you wanna spend time with her let me know, so I can be with her until she gets use to you and being around you right now, she is used to the crew being around her. Right now, you are a stranger in her eyes, and not someone who she has seen" Gopher says as he holds Gretel cause she was still a little scared.

"Maybe later I can be in the pool with her cause that sounds fun and something I can do with her" his mom says as she heads to her room to unpack and get settled in for the cruise.

Julie's parents were going to check on Julie and see how she was doing since Gopher told them that she was not feeling too good at all and that worried them.

"Gretel you have hang on daddy didn't bring any of your toys or your stroller up with him, so you were occupied" he says cause she wanted to get down and play or explore, and he had to keep her safe for the time being.

Gopher had to think where they could put the playpen at for when the little girls were on deck with their parents cause no one could watch them when they help with boarding and deboarding
