Emily is my big sister by 15 months! She is also my best friend, my swiss cheese. Growing up we were always close, but the older we get the more inseparable we are. Whether we are on an adventure or sitting in silence, there isn't anywhere else I would want to be. Em, is always there when I need her and even when I don't. I can't wait to see her return the maid of honor favor in August!

Kelsey is my longest most consistent best friendship. We met in the early 4th grade when our sister's introduced us, and we have not left each other's side since! If we weren't have 3+ day sleepovers in middle school, something wasn't right! We attended the same high school and college and have continued this life together ever since. Kels is the 2nd sister I never knew I needed. Whether it's our annual girl's trip or just a night out, there is never a dull moment. She's my girl, my person, and I'm so thankful for that.

Kristin is also a long time friend. Kris and I met in the middle to late 4th grade and instantly clicked on the soccer field. We went to middle school and high school together. We also ended up at PSU together for some of my favorite memories. Kristin has been there anytime I needed her and has been a constant in my life. Whether we are running the dogs or getting ice cream, we always find something to talk about. We have always joked about dating brothers, but we settled for best friends dating best friends!

Morgan and I have been friends since middle school. She's an unbelievable reliable friend that I don't have to talk to everyday to know she's in my corner. Whether we are driving many miles to try a new restaurant or getting the pups together for a play date, it's always an adventure. I love Morgan's adventurous soul and can't wait to have her by my side.

Courtney and I met through the FFA and high school and immediately became friends. The older we got the closer we grew. Now that I moved to Shippensburg, we are practically inseparable. She is an amazing friend that is always down for a good time, but we are perfectly content sitting in silence. She gave me the best gift by making me God Mom to her 3 perfect babies. I wouldn't change a thing about our friendship. I just love her so much.

Hallee and I also met through FFA in high school and had an instant friendship. Since I moved to Shippensburg, we have grown so close. Whether we're meeting for Friday lunches or going on a road trip, Hales is always ready to party! She is always there when I need her (but it might take her 3 days to reply)!! I can't wait to have Hallee by my side on the big day!

Kelly and I met through our men! She has been my friend for the shortest amount of time, but we instantly clicked and became inseparable best friends. Kel, is always down for a shopping/road trip, and I return the favor by attending random concerts any day of the week. Kelly is so loyal and I know she has my back, always. I love Kelly's selflessness and can't wait to have her by my side like I was for her.

Ava and I got to meet when she was born. She is my perfect God daughter and I wouldn't have it any other way. Even though she is too smart and sassy for her own good, I just love her to pieces. There is no doubt in my mind that she will outshine me in her white dress on our big day, and I can't wait for that.

Aven and I also met when he was born. He is my goofy goober of a God Son, but he is so perfect in every way. You never know what is going to come out of his mouth or what dance move he is going to bust out next. I love him to bits and wouldn't want anyone else to carry the (fake) rings down the aisle.
