Met Kaylee in ZTA back in 2019 when she became my G-Big. We had an instant connection that felt so easy, it was like we had been friends forever! Well that held true when we quickly became friends outside of ZTA, then roommates....TWICE! Between a short time frame we started to realize the random "small world" links we had. The universe gave me one of my best friends at the perfect time & the rest is history.

Kaylee and I met at Kansas Kids in preschool (?) and became best friends in middle school, after she sprained her ankle on my parents treadmill. The rest is history.

Kaylee and I have been best friends since the beginning! We originally met at daycare but reconnected in summer league softball where we quickly became each others every weekend plans! I also made her start going to the same elementary school as me so we could see each other everyday! Later down the road she became basically my next door neighbor! Needless to say we’ve been attached at the hip from the start. We’ve tackled many stages of life as friends and I’m so glad to have had her by my side for each and every one of them and I can’t wait to be by hers on one of the biggest days of her life!

Kaylee and I met in high school and bonded immediately. From there we were inseparable doing everything to nothing. One of the many traditions we have created over the years was cooking together, a signature pasta. We probably made pasta for the first 3 years of our friendship. Even when I moved for college and came back, Kay was always there for me with open arms to help me through hard times and show me a good time. We have been through so much together and calling her my best friend would not serve our relationship justice. I love Kay for all her antics, her ambition, and her care for those she loves. Being next to her on her special day makes my heart so full and I can't wait for another 10 years of memories and laughs!

My brother first told me about Kaylee right before my second was born. She’s 2.5 now! Ben was POSITIVE they were “just friends” but my husband and I knew something was brewing. As soon as I met Kaylee, I knew why Ben loved her so much. She’s funny, kind, quick to help, and full of light. She fits right in with our family and we are all so excited to welcome her for forever. I never had a sister growing up, but adding Kaylee to the growing list is something I’ve been looking forward to for a while. We’re lucky to have her!

Ben has had the privilege of having me as his younger brother for the better part of his life. We enjoy discussing sports, movies, and trivia questions we think the other doesn't know the answer to. Ben has been, and continues to be, someone that I have always looked up to, and I am very excited for his and Kaylee's upcoming marriage.

Ben and I have been friends for quite some time. One of my earliest memories with him was out at a middle school weekend retreat where we bonded over being the shortest in our group. We also enjoyed sleep talking to one another as the night went on holding conversations like we were actually awake. From there, we’ve worked long summers together, attended many tailgates and law school proms, and have recited way too many Remember the Titans quotes back and forth. Ben is one of my closest friends, and I’m excited to stand beside him as he gets to marry his best friend.

Ben and I went to law school together and would speak in passing from time to time generally about baseball. Our first long conversation was a debate about who had the best pizza and I felt that Imo’s was trash and that Glory Days was much better and obviously he didn’t take kindly to that. In I believe our third year of law school I learned that Ben would be attending the K-State v Missouri football game and I invited him over for dinner afterwards. (Still unsure what moved me to do that) we had my mom’s lasagna I believe. I learned that he did not actually get to go into the game and so I invited him to the next game. We were in a corn eating competition that we lost because Ben did not finish his corn cob. But I figured he was an okay guy and the rest is history.

I first met Ben when I was 4 and he was brought home as my first brother. Ever since then, there have been plenty of saturday morning cartoons, afternoons spent at the pool and evenings at the ballpark. It makes me extremely happy knowing that not only has he chosen the perfect career as a professional arguer, but has also brought Kaylee into our lives where she fits so perfectly. Their future is so bright, they definitely gotta wear shades!

I first met Ben when I started dating his sister Sam in 9 years ago. We have a lot in common, including a love for history, interpreting the law, and following hockey even though his team stinks. It is fun to be apart of this family and I'm excited for Kaylee to join!
