美国总统布什目前在德克萨斯州他的牧场家中，他的女儿詹娜本周末在布什家中的一次私人仪式上举行了婚礼。布什在每周一次的例行广播讲话中谈到女儿的婚礼。

The president used this week's radio address to mark Mother's Day (Sunday) and the celebration of his daughter's wedding.

布什总统趁本星期广播讲话的机会纪念母亲节，也祝贺了女儿的婚礼。

"Today is my daughter Jenna's wedding day," he said. "This is a joyous occasion for our family as we celebrate the happy life ahead of her and her husband Henry. It's also a special time for Laura, who, this Mother's Day weekend, will watch a daughter we raised together walk down the aisle."

布什说：“今天是我女儿詹娜结婚的日子。这是我们家一个喜庆的日子。我们庆祝我女儿和他丈夫亨利今后生活美满。对我妻子劳拉来说，这也是一个特别的时刻。在本周末的母亲节，她看到我们两人一起抚育成人的女儿走向主持婚礼的牧师。”

Speaking to reporters this past week, Mrs. Bush said she and her husband are staying calm amid all the media interest in the ceremony, a private affair at the family ranch before a stone cross placed near the fishing pond.

上星期，劳拉夫人对记者说，媒体对这场婚礼非常感兴趣，但是她和布什总统却很平静。这是在布什家牧场举行的一次私人活动。婚礼在一个养鱼池附近的一个石头十字架前举行。

"Neither one of us are nervous. I am very, very excited. It is a very interesting passage of life when you get to that time in your life when your first child is getting married, and we are getting for us our first son," she said. "So, it's a thrill and we are very happy about it."

劳拉说：“我和我丈夫都不紧张。我非常兴奋。在你生命的这一时刻，当你的第一个孩子结婚的时候，这是你的生命中非常有趣的一刻。现在我们等于又多了一个儿子。真是令人激动。我们都很高兴。”

The president and Mrs. Bush joined more than 100 people at a rehearsal dinner Friday evening in the Texas town of Salado, where they also celebrated the groom's 30th birthday.

星期五晚上，布什总统和劳拉在德克萨斯州的萨拉多镇和一百多人一道参加了婚礼前晚宴。那天他们还庆祝了新郎的30岁生日。

Wedding guests not attending the rehearsal dinner had what the first lady's Press Secretary Sally McDonough called a Texas-sized celebration at the Salado Silver Spur Theater, hosted by friends of the Bush family.

第一夫人的新闻秘书麦克多诺说，那些没有参加晚宴的婚礼客人在萨拉多银刺剧院参加了庆祝仪式，主持人是布什一家的朋友。麦克多诺说，庆祝仪式的规模跟德州的规模相符合。
