Roberta and Anne's wedding

On August 10th, we made a trip to Tahoe with Donna to attend Roberta and Anne's wedding!  Donna had flown in from New Jersey on the 8th and we met her on Saturday morning for our trip.  It was a beautiful day and Lake Tahoe was beautiful as well!

Donna and Roberta moved from New Jersey to San Francisco after they graduated from college and have remained close friends from that time, so there was no way she was missing this momentous occasion.  We were fortunate to be able to attend the wedding with Donna.

Roberta and Anne have been partners for over 20 years and with the change in the law in California, they were finally able to exchange marriage vows.  It was a beautiful ceremony and we are so happy for both of them.  Thanks, Roberta and Anne, for inviting us to your wedding and thanks, Donna for taking us to Tahoe!
