Our Love Story / Nuestra Historia De Amor:

Picture of Our Love Story / Nuestra Historia De Amor:

January - 2014

It was a clear black night, a clear white moon,

Moni noticed Dong from across the room,

She went up and stole Dong's hat, before she knew, he would steal her heart,

Just like that, they were in the same spot,

In need of something else,

They worked hard to ensure a strong foundation and took their life to a whole new level,

Their rhythm is their bass and the bass is the treble.

Grissell & Dong look forward to sharing a lifetime of love and happiness and their wedding day with loved ones.


Always remember, rhythm is life and life is rhythm!


Fue una noche clara, con luna llena, Grisell y sus amigas fueron a bailar. Se encontraban en el salón, cuando la mirada de Grissell fue atraída por Dong desde el otro extremo del lugar. Le robó el sombrero a Dong, antes de darse cuenta que él le robaría el corazón. Trabajaron juntos los dos, para iniciar una relación sólida, e iniciaron su historia de amor, con respeto, alegría. Grissell y Dong esperan compartir su vida de amor y felicidad el día de su matrimonio acompañados de sus seres queridos.

Father's Day 2023 during a camping trip in Yucaipa CA, with scouting friends and family. After lights out, Dong and Grissell sat on the tailgate of his red pickup truck. The moon was full, the night was warm and Dong saw it as a perfect opportunity to pop the question. Not being prepared for the moment, he used a part of his flash light as a ring. They spent their first date 9yrs ago on the back of this same tailgate, talking and laughing. It was the perfect proposal.

She said "yes".

La luna estaba llena y para Dong era una oportunidad perfecta para hacer la pregunta. No estando preparado para el momento, usó una parte de su linterna como anillo.


Grissell dijo si!
