Karisa and Josh Christensen Wedding

On Saturday one of Chris’s little sisters Karisa, married her fiance Josh Christensen. We drove up early Saturday morning to make it to the ceremony. It was a huge crowd, and the ceremony was really pretty special.  There was a really peaceful feeling, and I hope that Karisa and Josh will even remember a little bit of advice the sealer gave. Everything that day was perfect. Vicki did a fantastic job pulling everything together, and I know that Karisa will always have wonderful memories of her special day.

Here are a few of the photos we walked away with that day…..

….waiting outside the temple for the happy couple to emerge….

After we left the temple to head to the luncheon, Chris and I decided to drive by our very first apartment since it was only a few blocks away. It was our very first place so there is a little nostalgia, but overall…. it is still the same gross apartment it was 8 years ago when we first moved in. The air conditioning didn’t work, the only heating source were the wall heaters that we had to make sure didn’t burst into flames in the middle of the night. The carpet was crunchy, and if you stepped out on the balcony…. you might fall through. Not exactly a dream home…. but when it’s about all you can afford…. it just doesn’t seem so bad…. sort-of….

That evening the reception was held, and it was really nice. The food was great, the music was great, and the company was great!

The Wedding Cake…

The Band…

And this is Ava’s reaction to the band….

It was a beautiful day for a beautiful couple…. and we wish them all the joy and happiness in their new life together!!! We love you Karisa and Josh!!
