My mom's wedding

Ottavio trying to woo Veronica, and doesn't she look lovely!

Who would have ever predicted that my mother would remarry?! Yet she did. It was a typical New England day, overcast, slightly windy and a bit cool for june, but that did not stop the festivities. All were dressed and ready for a day on the Boston harbor.

Isabella, Ottavio and I were the only ones to attend from our family, only because I was certain that at the least, one child would have fallen or have ben pushed overboard. I wanted to relax and enjoy my mother's wedding, even though I was to be the Justice of the Peace for the day. Yes you read that one right. My mother managed to attain a one day permit for me to be able to perform the wedding ceremony. I had never heard of such a thing before and was mortified at the thought. Only the more people I spoke to about it the more I came to understand that this was common practice, and so must the the hip new thing. "only in America" I say!

Julia and Michael.
I say the two prettiest girls on board that day. Isabella and Adriella
Nonno and Nonna, this photo is de ja vu. I swear they are in every outing, family or social, posing just like this!
