Ronja came to live with my family and I in 2017 as an exchange student, she became my sister almost immediately, we’ve seen each other numerous times since she went back to Germany in 2018. I always wanted a sister and I got the best one :) she’s seen me at my worst and at my best and we have been talking about this day forever, I’m so glad to have my sister standing next to me!!

Hannah and I met our freshman year at SDSU randomly in the union one day, since that day we have had a tight bond and I couldn’t imagine my life without her! She is one of those people where if you are having a bad day she can almost immediately make it better. One of the funniest people I’ve met. I’m so grateful to have her standing next to me!

Melinda and I met back in 2016 thanks to her dating my cousin, and eventually marrying him! On her wedding website she mentioned she thinks I may like her better than kiesen, and she may be right ;) We always have the best time at family gatherings, she definitely is the life of the party! Melinda is such an important person in my life and I can’t wait to have her standing next to me!

Megan and I met in 6th grade and have been best friends ever since. The love I have for this girl is insane. Megan is hilarious, has the biggest heart and has made me pee my pants laughing more times than I can count. We have grown so much together throughout our friendship and I can’t wait to continue making more memories and having her stand next to me!

Brooke and I met way back in 4th grade, and if you’ve ever heard the saying “enemies to friends” that would be us in a nutshell. By the 5th grade we became besties, we graduated high school together, went to college together for a little bit, and even lived together. She has the best laugh, sometimes she can be funny ;) We call ourselves “soulmates in friend form” and I don’t think that’s could be anymore true! I’m so happy to have her standing next to me!

Cassie and I met in 2021 while working at Craft in Brookings together. Cassie is one of the most kind, caring people I’ve ever met and I am just so grateful to have her in my life, we became besties instantly, spending our days together doing the most random things, I’ve even told her I feel like I can’t go more than 2 weeks without seeing her! I’m so so happy she are going to be standing next to me!! Shoutout to Craft for bringing us together :)

Kalli and I met our freshman year of college as well and we instantly clicked. I’ve never met anyone more down to earth than kalli. We always have the best time when we’re together and our FaceTime calls usually last about 2 hours or so, and It’s one of my favorite things when I get to be around her. We could sit and talk for hours if we had the time! She gives the best advice, and has the biggest heart and we all need a Kalli in our lives :) so grateful she said yes to standing next to me!

Brandi & I met in 2018 as freshman in college and my life has changed for the better since I met her. We hangout all the time pretty much everyday, she is apart of my family at this point!! I could not be more blessed to have Brandi in my life along with her sweet little girl Annabelle (and Tyson too, I suppose)

Alice & I met in 2016 in high school, we have SO many memories to date and I love to reflect back on them. I was lucky enough to be in her wedding a couple years ago, and it was so fun to watch her marry her husband. I get nostalgia thinking about all of our fun times and I’m so grateful to be apart of her life!!
