We are back home, unpacked and still talking about what a fun wedding weekend we had in Red Bluff with all of the Heffernans, Doverspikes, Simonsons and lots and lots of friends and family. Friday night was the Rehearsal at the church at 5pm followed by a Prime Rib BBQ hosted by the Doverspikes at Claire & Tom's house. The kids all had fun getting down and dirty in the newly opened up play area next to the barn while the adults went through lots of mint iced tea and cold Coors Lights on the newly built patio (concrete poured Wednesday!) up above. Donald's family are such nice people... It was a great night!

Donald's Dad, Mark Doverspike, presenting brands to Kat's family (we got them too!) One is Donald's personal brand (a variation of his family's Hotchkiss Ranch brand- it's a "10" on it's side) and the other is the Heffernan's great-great-grandfather Casper Borchard's brand (C with a B in the middle). We can brand our steaks now :) This was such a cool gift
