Brian and Cristi's Wedding

This past Saturday, Mark's brother Brian finally wed his beautiful bride, Cristi! We have been anticipating this wedding for several years now so it was wonderful to see it finally come to fruition. To say that it was a beautiful wedding would be an understatement! And to say that we had a good time would be one too! It was honestly one of the funnest receptions I have ever been to! Pretty much all of Cristi's family is from Mexico so there was a little bit of a language barrier, but you would have never guessed it by the amount of fun, happiness, and excitement that was going on amongst everyone. It was so good to see family and old friends all come together for such a wonderful event. We are SO happy that Brian has found such a perfect soul mate in Cristi and are so excited to have her as the final link (other than more kiddos, of course!) in the Asmussen family. Here are a few pics from the special day:


Such a pretty bride and groom!

Wait.

Kolbe in his tux with the beautiful mother-of-the-groom

Thank God my mother came up from Houston to serve as my assistant! Kolbe was the ring bearer for the wedding and Mark was the best man which meant that I somehow had to manage Kolbe and all his "duties" as well as Reagan...AND read the prayers of the faithful during the mass somewhere in the middle of all of this! Having my mom there helped out SO much! And by the way, Kolbe did a phenomenal job walking down the aisle all by himself! If you would have asked me a year ago (when he was just learning to walk), I'd say a 20-month-old would never be able to do such a thing! He was adorable!

And Reagan was pretty cute, too!

Kolbe may be my male twin, but not Reagan.

Kolbe partied literally until about 11:30pm before he finally couldn't take any more and my mom took him home. But not before snagging a balloon from the parking lot. He wouldn't let go all the way home and then wouldn't let go when my mom put him in bed either! He just wasn't ready to let go of such a wonderful evening! He was a total dancing machine, by the way! His "uncle" Jared put some videos of him on youtube at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vCYM72W6iSk
