Dawn is my life long best friend and partner in crime!

Dawn O’Dell

My beautiful friend Alexis - I call her Parrottttt 🦜💕 This girl worked her bootie off and went from IDOC to the Capitol Police. Thank you for always calling me when I have hot gossip or just need to vent! I love you so much! I am SOOOO proud of you! 

Alexis

My seeeester 😍 pretty little Alli Bug! So happy to have her in my life

Alli

I can call this woman any time and she will drop what she’s doing to talk to me. She can be hours away and all I’d have to do is call her. Mercedez has been one of my very best friends and helped me the entire time I was pregnant 💕 I cherish her! 

Mercedez

Shaye is my “Dawn” of Indianapolis. I met Shaye at my last prison in Pendleton. She’s outspoken, breathtakingly beautiful, she stands up for what she thinks is right, and she loves her family with all her heart. I’m so blessed to be apart of her life! I love you Shaye 💜 Fun fact about Shaye- she showed me where my backbone was. Mom and Dawn tried to pull that out of me for years. Thank you for everything you’ve done for me babe I love you and miss you SO much!!!

Shaye

My little cousin Mackenzie - I call her Mac. She’s smart, spunky, and is so excited to have another cousin over for Christmas! Mackie is in high school and is taking CNA courses right now. She’s in FCA and FFA. She’s a good kid and we all love her to death

Mackenzie

My sweet little baby cousin is full of sass and style. Maddie loves doing hair and helping with kiddos. She will be in charge of decorating and helping with the flower girls! Maddie made honor roll on school and babysits in her spare time! 

Madison

Lyla is my talented artistic little cousin. She’s so smart! Always on honor roll and takes pride in everything she does! She’s not one to brag so I’ll do it for her. Lyla loves babies and little kids. She’s going to help with the flower girls and ring bear. I can’t wait to have her be apart of our big day. 

Lyla

Trent is Karleigh’s brother. Alex is so excited to have another “brother” to hang out with. Trent is my loyal, always going to be there for you friend. Dad said ‘you two better get along and love each other. One day your siblings will be all you have. You’ll need them one day.’ 
We were 6 and 8 at the time 😂 I think we were fighting in the backseat of the Durango. 

Anyway Bub my point is - thank you for being my friend. Not everyone has siblings that are as close as we are. I thank dad every day for that and I want you to know I love you with all my heart! Alex and I can’t wait to have you up there with us. 

Trent

Wade - Karleigh’s baby brother. 

Wade is a ‘gentle’ giant… kind of. Karleigh calls him Wader Tader or Tader Bug. 

Alex adores Wade, they’ve been buddies and work on projects together. 

Wade is hard working and dependable. He has good morals and is very respectful. He’s a man of few words, unless you’re talking about hunting or fishing. 

Wade is very protective and is always there when I need him. I cherish him as a brother. I love you Tader 💕 you’re the best. 

Wade

Our sweet little Sammie 💕
We can’t say much about this little turd. He’s a good kid. Sammie is in Pre-K and loves all things Pokémon, fishing, and outside. He’s a friend to all animals and taught his barn cat Sparky to ride a bike and jump on the trampoline. 

 Pray for us and wish us luck with this little guy on our big day. 

Sammie

Our precious baby niece Sophia. 

Daughter of Trent and Alli, this sassy little girl loves animals and reading. Soph is a girly girl, she loves purses and dresses and doing her hair. She loves her mommy and daddy. Auntie is her favorite of course, just kidding her dad’s her favorite 🥲. We can pretend though 

Sophia

My handsome little cousin Colin will be an usher at our wedding. 

Collin is super smart, gets honors in school! Loves fishing and hunting. He likes crafty things. My uncle got him a rock polisher for Christmas a few years ago. Colin is an outdoors kinda kiddo and is extremely helpful. He loves helping our papa and grandma Vic with any task they have.
