The Event of the Summer!

My little brother, Chris, got married!! He's always been my "little" brother- I can't believe he's turning 26 in August! Anyway, on July 19th, 2008, we got to celebrate with Chris and Katie as they united in marriage. It was a wonderful day!

Alexander was the ring bearer :). Cousins: Karis and Sophia were the flower girls. Alex and Sophia rode in the wagon, pulled by Karis! They all did such a great job! No crying, no talking, no climbing out of the wagon... And they were great through the whole ceremony! I was a proud mom:).

Nate was a groomsman, along with my brother-in-law, Erik, Chris's friend Thomas, and my brother Andrew was the Best Man. (This picture is obviously from the rehearsal, not the wedding:), and the line-up is: Andrew, Thomas, Nate, Erik.)

For once, I wasn't a bridesmaid! Not that I wouldn't have wanted to be, but it was nice for the guys to be involved more this time, and for the mom's to take care of the kids:). My sister, Alissa, and I each read a passage of scripture in the ceremony, and my sister-in-law, Bekah, sang for Chris and Katie's first dance. Again, it was an absolutely wonderful day!

Here's a picture of me and my handsome boy:).
