I've been gone this last week
to California
in Celebration of my brother's wedding.
Jed and Torrie
This was such a happy occasion!
Our families came together in love and support.
Both Jed and Torrie were
suddenly widowed
while in their early 50's.
Pretty devastating for both.
Now, years later, they have found each other
and have a second chance at love.
We couldn't be more thrilled.
It's wonderful to see my brother
happy again!
Torrie is loving and kind
and a perfect match.
We are delighted to welcome her as our sister-in-law.
For the wedding and reception they chose the
stunning Shadowbrook Restaurant in Capitola
which has been in operation since 1947
Gardens
Waterfalls
Amazing food
The height of ambiance
A hillside cable car takes you
down to the restaurant
at
river's edge
The Soquel Creek
empties into Monterey Bay
and is dotted with waterfront homes.
Last year Mr. Cactus and I paddled a canoe
through this beautiful area.
Weddings are always such a wonderful time to
bring family together.
Our Step Mother
who will be
95!
in a few weeks
was able to attend.
My sister and brother
have been very lovingly involved in her day to day care
over the last few years.
My sister Robyn, and her husband Bruce
Jed
and Mr. Cactus
Jed and Torrie
we wish you years of joy and happiness
and love you!
