Allie and I met in kindergarten (she saved me from a scary 4th grader, but that's a story for another day) and we haven't missed a beat since. With siblings the same age, we barely spent a weekend apart when we were young. I can always count on Allie to constantly be smiling and for her to laugh at my dumb jokes.

Nick and I met eachother in 6th grade and haven't looked back. We were always on rival baseball teams but somehow made it work. We always have a great time and we have been to Cancun and Bahamas together!

I can't even remember a time when Hannah and I weren't friends. Fun Fact: When we were younger, I used to put pillows between me and Hannah during our sleepovers, otherwise she'd end up on my side of the bed (I've never met a heavier sleeper). Even though Hannah lives in KC, we don't let it keep us from getting caught up in everything going on in each other's lives.

Luke and I met somewhere around birth. I have been very fortunate to have such a close cousin. We try to always make time to visit each other when we can. I am like a little kid going into a candy store everytime I get to see him. He is by far the tallest guy I know.

Josie and I met our freshman year of high school when we were the only two freshmen to make the varsity dance team. We had no choice but to become the best of friends! There's never a dull moment with this girl and I can count on endless laughs each time we are together. I can't wait to stand by her side in May when she marries her fiance, Cole!

Zack is my favorite (only one for now) brother in law. He can talk to a brick wall for hours and always makes memories when we go out with family. He goes out of his way to help anyone and do anything for family.

Laynee (or as I like to call her, Lenie) came into my life because she needed a place to live and we had an open bedroom :) It didn't take me long to realize that we were going to become amazing friends. Laynee is my adventure buddy and we love taking girls trips to explore new destinations whenever we can!

Tommy and I met freshman year of highschool. He was the pitcher and I was the catcher, the dynamic duo. We don't get to see each other as much as I would like anymore, but we never lose a beat.

Kayli! I could write a book on all the reasons why I'm glad Kayli and I met, or why we are still good friends. She's a fellow accountant, so she made a great impression right off the bat ;) Kayli is so down to earth and I know I can always count on the best time when I get to visit her!

Ben and I met freshman year of highschool. We played ball together and also went to every single sporting event in his families van. He has lived from coast to coast but I have been fortunate enough to be able to visit him multiple times at FSU and Santa Clara. Even though he is a lawyer, he is the most down to earth, humble person I know.

Shelby and I met in a business statistics class in college (yeah, it was as bad as it sounds). We became quick friends while suffering through the class together. Shelby is one of the sweetest, most genuine people I know. I'm so thankful to have her as a good friend!

Weston and I met freshman year of college. We both lived in the same dorm but didn't really start hanging out until we both were in the same fraternity. We always have a blast at the Ozarks and Mardi Gras and he is my official wake boarding instructor.

Hailey- where do I start?! I met this girl in a business club at SIUE only because we were placed next to each other in line because our last names are similar. Even though she lives across the country in Reno, when we see each other it's like it has only been days since I last saw her. Hailey is one of the most fun, bubbly people I know and she always brings a smile to my face!

Brendan and I met the day after Abby and I became an official couple. We share the love for Cardinals, Blues, alcohol, and a good time. One day I might get the courage to play him in golf.

Growing up, I always wanted a sister (who didn't?) and I'm so excited to FINALLY get one! And the best part is that I get to have an extremely admirable one too. Megan has so many great qualities including her intelligence, patience and how much she cares about her family and her students.

"Baby Colin" and I met the day after Abby and I became official. We share the love of technology and video games as well as Blues and Cardinals. Eventually I'll get the chance to kick his butt in NHL.

Alex and I met freshman year of college in the dorms. We spent many nights studying in the library for our engineering courses as well as many weekends partying. He is always full of energy and you can hear him from across the room. I always kick his butt in NHL.

Curtis and I met freshman year or college in the dorms as well as in the classroom. He is the only other computer engineer I still talk to and hang out with. We both are nerdy and we like it! Curtis always shows up late to everything and never has stress. If he asks, the wedding is an hour earlier than scheduled so he makes it on time.
