After the wedding, Kris and Mike hurried back to the waiting room and attacked each other. Their love for each other was overflowing. It was so sweet and endearing.

This little guy was a regular jumping jack. I took so many pictures of other people to discover this little guy mid-air in the background. So hilarious!
