Colleen and I have been best friends since 8th grade. She is the person I go to with every bit of good news and every problem. She is such an amazing person, so strong. We've definitely had our ups and downs but it makes us stronger. Colleen and I grew up a lot together, I wouldn't have wanted it any other way. Distance hasn't done anything to our relationship, we talk/text on a daily basis and when we see each other it is like I never moved. She is already such a help with picking out wedding stuff. I am so honored and thankful to have Colleen as my Maid of Honor.

Michelle and I met about 14 years ago, we lived in the same apartment complex. I was playing outside in the snow and there was this little blonde headed girl playing outside too. We started talking and playing a lot together. We used to play tricks with her sister, our favorite thing (at least it was mine) was to watch Tales of the Crypt at her dad's, we even put her cat in a suitcase once (don't judge, we were young and ridiculous). We grew apart a little in our teens, Michelle changed school districts and we went different ways. I still kept in touch with her family and still saw Michelle. It wasn't until later in our high school years did we rekindle our relationship. Michelle is definitely such a calm and peaceful person, I respect that a lot. She will help me stay stress free on the big day! I am so happy to have her be apart of my wedding.

I've known Ashleigh for about 2-3 years, I met her not long after I moved back to Louisiana. It hasn't been until lately have we gotten really close. Ashleigh is probably one of the sweetest people I know. She is always there for me and ready to listen to what I have to say. Anytime I call her, I know she always will cheer me up with some crazy story that has happened to her (trust me, there is always a story). She will probably read this and hate me for it, but she has THE CUTEST southern accent ever! We only live about 45 minutes away and we don't see each other often BUT we text/call almost every other day. Ashleigh has definitely become one of my best friends and I'm excited to have her input on our wedding!

So Will and I went to school together from K3 until we graduated. That is 15 years of Westminster. Wow. He has definitely been one of my best friends from the beginning. We didnt hang out through all of school, but we always ended up getting closer again and again. From PE with Squanto to ceramics class, we have seen it all.

So I think Al and I met in Jr. High, and it was all because of some stupid band that we mutually liked. Al helped ween me away from dumb music and helped shape my current musical pallet. We got really close throughout high school and after. If you were looking for me on the weekend, odds are I was at his house or vice versa. We have had musical project after musical project, all of which I loved A LOT. Al is definitely one of the greatest guys I know and I'm lucky to call him my friend.

Wow, what can I say about Jai. We have been best friends since before I can remember. I remember the first time we met like it was yesterday. I didn't know him but I saw him riding down the ditch in a little red wagon. I knew he was crazy and it was really all down hill from there. We went through everything together, even him being punished for practically 2 years. We have gotten at each others throats from time to time but that is because we are both hard-headed. To tell you the truth, most of my childhood memories have him in there somewhere. He is awesome.

Calli is my cousin's little girl. She is just the cutest little girl with the cutest little personality. I am so happy for her to be our flower girl.
