Julie & Chris' Beach Wedding

Julie's dream wedding (aside from getting married in the temple, which they are planning to do soon) has always been to get married on a beach, so that is exactly what they did! On March 10th, my Aunt Becky's Bishop married Chris and Julie on the Corona Del Mar beach making them Mr. and Mrs. Nygard. It was beautiful and such a fun Rasmussen family reunion! We ADORE Chris and are soooo happy that Julie found him! He makes Julie and Jax extremely happy, which is all we could ever ask for. He treats Julie like a queen and with the utmost respect. He is a very hard worker and is devoted to taking care of Ju and Jax for eternity. He loves Jax and is so great with him! They definitely want to have more kids in the future. We love Chris and are so happy that he is now a member of our family! Congrats Ju and Chris! We love you!
