BaanHofman Broadcast: Kearsten & Tony's Wedding

Kearsten Pulido and Tony Hymer were married July 5, 2008 in Pleasanton, California. Kearsten was a beautiful bride and the wedding was so fun! Adelynn was one of their flower girls and Cordell was a groomsmen.

Kind-of a fun story...
Cordell and I began meeting with Kearsten and Tony doing some pre-marital counseling, my old youth pastor Tim Barley was going to marry them in California, but asked Cordell and I to meet with them since they were living in Colorado.
Kearsten moved in with us the first week in October and we knew we were both from Pleasanton, but didn't know that we had known each other years ago. After Kearsten had moved in one day we were looking at pictures and she showed me one of her house and told me the street she lived on. It turned out that we were both from the same neighborhood - Pleasanton Meadows. Then we realized that I had taught her swimming lessons when she was seven years old at the pool that I just to work at. I also taught her little brother Chris when he was two. Such a small world!
So her wedding was a little reunion with a ton of people that I used to babysit for or teach swimming lessons for. It was fun to see everyone, it did make me feel a little old that all of these kids were now adults!

Waiting for the limo at the hotel - Becky, Adelynn & Kearsten. Yes, Adelynn got to ride in a limo to the wedding, she thought it was pretty cool!

After the ceremony, in the processional, Cordell carried Adelynn down the aisle. Adelynn still had some pedals left in her basket, so she decided to sill throw her pedals on the aisle on the way out, the crowd sure thought this was cute!

The happy family!

Adelynn had so much fun at the reception. During Kearsten and Tony's first dance she said, "Look Mom, it's just like Cinderella." She had good patience, but she was ready to get out there to dance. When the DJ announced for the wedding party to come out to dance, she ran out on the dance floor all by herself and found her daddy to dance with. Throughout the night she danced with the bride, the groom, the father of the bride, lots of the guests, her mommy, her daddy, and the mom of the bride! She was quite the dancer, but all of the sudden she crashed on her Daddy's shoulder!

About 10:30 or so Adelynn just got comfortable on her on Daddy's shoulder. She was so excited earlier in the day that she wasn't able to take a nap and all that dancing caught up to her!

My Mom was excited to hold Adelynn when she was so sleepy, she never falls asleep like this anymore! Grammy definitely enjoyed the special cuddle time! Thanks Mom for all your help!
