Jean and Mike officially tie the knot!!!!

Jean and Mike had a very small "official" wedding over the holidays. We are SO happy for them and so excited that "Uncle Muck" (as Tanner fondly calls him) is officially part of our family. He's been like a brother to us for many years and we're so happy it's finally official. Mike has such a huge family (his Dad alone has 8 brother's and sister's - and he has 3 other parents each with several siblings) which makes for many aunts and uncles and cousins and they're all very close just as we are to our amazing aunts and uncles and cousins on our side. Jean was concerned that if she had to do the official part of the wedding in front of so many people (it would have been over 200) she might not make it down the aisle in one piece. So they officially tied the knot over the holidays in an itty bitty ceremony and now they're gearing up to host a wedding party to celebrate their marriage with all the family and their friends this summer. They're really looking forward to celebrating with everyone - and being able to really enjoy being surrounded by everyone without the stress of the formal ceremony and the getting down the aisle:) Anyways, we are SO happy for them (and selfishly for ourselves too as our family feels much more complete this way!). Here are a few pictures...
