We were recently fortunate enough to be invited to the wedding reception of Andrew's brother Dennis.

Congratulations Dennis & Melissa!

This wonderful party was held on an outdoor patio in a grove of sequoia in the Santa Cruz Mountains. It was beautiful and practical, too, you see they had a nice sandbox and toys for little ones. Yeah!!

So while the adults enjoyed a fantastic authentic Sicilian meal, complete with bruschetta, roasted veggies, ravioli, vegan pasta, and tiramisu... Bella enjoyed getting the fanciest dress she has ever worn, her white tights and white shoes, as filthy as possible.

Look closely.

There are no shadows, only dirt.

That's my girl!
