Christy and I have been friends forever, and we will surely be friends for life. We grew up in Ohio together with our houses being only minutes apart (even so, my Dad would often miss her street on the way to our house leading to just a longer hang out session!) Whether it is walking though the woods looking for salamanders, jumping on her trampoline performing love songs or dancing our hearts out we always have a great time together.

Chad is the big brother everyone wants to have. As much as he may try to make you think otherwise this dude is grounded in himself and his family and always someone I know I can look to for advice and fun. People love being around Chad, including Chad.

Cristin and I were inseparable growing up as I practically lived at her house most weeks. We rode horses together, played basketball and volleyball together, and even swam across a freezing alpine lake aboard a unicorn together! Anything we do together involves way more laughter than our abs can handle and even though we live in opposite sides of the country we keep our friendship strong!

Shawn is one the best Dads, and hardest working dudes I know. He's also a pretty rad older brother to look up to. From Ocean City, to Sanibel, to Sedona we've built some pretty awesome memories over the years.

My oldest big brother Jared started College when I started Kindergarten, but we've always been close. Dude used to bench press me in the basement, and I was known to fall asleep on top of him on the couch. Excited for many more memories.

Kelly and I met in college at the University of Miami (the better Miami, of course) and lived together our Junior year. I have created so many wonderful memories with her exploring National Parks, rollerblading around Miami, laying on the floor just spending time, and traveling to new places together. She continues to be a very big part of my life today.

Jackie is my awesome cousin who I have looked up to ( literally! ) all my life. I grew up wearing her clothes and learning from her about sports, music, makeup and friendship as if she was an older sister I never had. I love that we continue to get closer as we get older together.

I've known Bryan most of my life, and excited I'm getting to add him to my family! Bryan and I played football together for a year in high school and Bryan always used to talk so much trash to me during practice that he was never able to back up, haha. Katie loves her younger brother so incredibly much, and I'm excited to get a new bro to hang with.

One of my best friends since 2007 when we met as roommates for pre-season football camp at Miami. We were roommates in some capacity every year at Miami. Memories are endless including two a days, our game at the Big House, general Miami Shenanigans, Steve's wedding, and countless others.

Friends ever since he moved to our district in middle school Chris is my go to guy I can count on for anything. Over the years he has grown to be one of my best friends. Chris is one of those guys when he sets his mind to something, its done - especially having massive traps.

Judgemental Josh as he is known is really a good dude. One of my best friends since we met in residency at UW, Josh and I share memories of shucking teeth in the UW Emergency Room, and fixing grills for sick patients listening to surf rock in the hospital OR. Also lots of sendy mountain stuff.

I've been close with my cousin Ben our whole lives, and its been awesome to see our relationship go from cousins to one of my true best friends over the years. My go to "yes man" Ben has never been shy to jump in on my cross country road trips, run off trail solo in search of marmots, or fly to Alaska and sleep in tents and cars with me for a week.
