On Thursday, July 3 my sister and Dave got married. Of course, Sofia and Luca were part of the wedding. I mean, who wouldn't want darling kids in their wedding? Stefanie and I had a wonderful morning full of primping and even Sofia got in on some girl action at the nail salon. Stefanie looked gorgeous (duh) and Dave was handsome and nervous. Sofia was so excited to finally get the chance to wear her princess dress and carry her flowers in "Auntie Steffie's wedding!" She has been talking about the wedding for more than two months and has continually asked "is it July yet?" Now Sofia talks about getting married and asks is either she can marry Daddy or Luca. We are trying to explain how that may be a problem, but she insists that "it's okay to marry Luca, Mommy." She will figure that out soon enough. Anyway, the day finally came, and she could barely hold herself together. Sofia could finally be a princess in Auntie Steffie's wedding and she was ridiculously adorable. Luca was another story. He wanted nothing to do with his tuxedo. After some time, Brian was able to convince him to put it on, and he raced off to play with the soccer ball that was thankfully left in the adjacent garden. What would we have done without that darn ball? Once the wedding began, Luca walked straight down the aisle with his "special pillow" without the rings (he can't totally be trusted with platinum) and Sofia followed with her gorgeous flowers. She got about half way down the aisle and chose the first open seat. She sat there delicately, looking very proud of herself. My Aunt Veda and I coaxed her into coming all the way down to her seat in the front. we all had a quick laugh before the beautiful bride made her entrance. And she was stunning. The day was perfect and the wedding went off without a hitch. We laughed, we cried, we breathed deeply, and we danced until there was no more music. It was perfect.
