Some people just won't go away, no matter how much you torment them. People like siblings, cousins, and best friends since middle school. These are those people.
We probably don't need much of an introduction.
Jeanette's cousin. Pretty much a big sister to me. She teased and tortured me all through my childhood, but I always thought she was SO COOL. I miss her a lot since I moved away.
Josh's best friend since FOREVER. This guy is pretty awesome. He's a total dork, which we both love. But he's one of the most devoted friends I've ever seen. Even though he lives in another state and months may go by without hearing from him, Josh B. and Josh E. are closer than brothers. I'm so glad FI has this goofball to stand up with him.
Wendi's son. We're not sure if we'll actually get him to walk down the aisle, he's kind of shy. But, he did say if his sister needs him to walk with her then maybe he will. I can't wait to see him, he's grown up so much!
Wendi's daughter. Nora is so cute! I have no idea how my tomboy cousin managed to give birth to such a girly-girl. Nora loves purses and dresses, and she says she wants to be a flower girl when she grows up. She would like to carry a purse instead of a basket in my wedding. I think we can work with that.
Josh & Jeanette's friend. I'll claim him, too! Jason was there the day we met online, playing the same video game. Actually, Josh thought Jason and I should group up because we were the same level. Didn't work like that. This dude has been the mediator in many a misunderstanding between FI and I. He knows us both well enough to be totally unsurprised that we made it this far together, in spite of some major obstacles at the beginning.
Jeanette's sister. She's a sweetheart and a firecracker at the same time. Sometimes it's been difficult to relate to her (she's 6 years younger than me), but I've always tried to set a good example when I wasn't tormenting her. I'm glad that as we both grow up we seem to be growing closer.
Jeanette's brother. Oh, my little brother. What can I say? I was the criminal mastermind, he was my accomplice. His baby blues got us out of many a spanking. He's the strong, quiet type... but totally a clown under that tough exterior. I wonder if he'll do his infamous "bust a move" at the reception.
Josh's sister. They have so much in common, the same witty sense of humor, and they even look a lot alike! I haven't spent much time with her, but I hope we become good friends.
Josh's brother. Jake is cool. Like, really cool. So cool he rarely even speaks. So I don't know a lot about him except he likes to work out and watch basketball on a big-screen TV. He is also currently a "Poultry Science" major, which doesn't surprise me at all.
