She is a rock, both emotionally and physically, and I couldn't be where I am today without her. She definitely has middle child syndrome though, and will literally grow a dozen tumors so she can be the center of attention.

My baby sister who gives the BEST hugs. Very in touch with her emotions, so much so that she will pet all of the sensitive plants and then cry over how sensitive they are.

I met her online during the pandemic, and thought she was one of the coolest people ever and I could never convince her to be my friend. Turns out she's just as, if not nerdier than I am, so I decided to keep her around.

Clark and I have been best friends since middle school. In high school I promised him he would be the best man at my wedding. Many stories, many memories, and many years later he's still my best friend and finally gets to fulfill that role!

Ryan and I met when I was working at a laser company in Wadena, MN. He was the IT guy. What started out as a work relationship, quickly became hanging out and often working on each others (mainly Ryan's) house. It's a good thing we don't live closer because Ryan and I would have probably built a two story sauna or something ridiculous with a projector and the best WIFI you can imagine.

An example of a man, father, and friend. At his wedding, I tried to convince him to move into my bachelor pad with me instead of marrying my sister.
