There's not a single momma in the world better than her. She gives the best advice, hugs, and cries with me when I'm going through tough times. Did I mention she makes some kickass Jambalaya?! We quite literally grew up together and while it wasn't always easy, it created the strongest bond I think a mother and daughter could ever have.

Livy is a spitfire. If she isn't giving you a hard time, she probably doesn't like you. She doesn't show it the same as most people, but she loves very deeply and would do absolutely anything for the ones most important to her. From making TikToks to gas station snack runs, any time spent with her is a blast. Having her as a sister is one of the biggest blessings.

Me and Macy were introduced during CYO Volleyball several years ago, but our friendship began our sophomore year of high school. She's extremely adventurous and is always down for Mexican food (We probably go through 3 baskets of chips each time). I know I can always count on her for a laugh when I need it. She's my biggest hype woman and supports every move I make. People like her are very few and far between and I'm so lucky to know and love her.

Erin and I threw shot put and discus together in high school and pretty quickly became besties. She relates to life's challenges and always has words of wisdom to get you through any hardship. She's seen me at my lowest and my highest and been by my side every step of the way. I know even if we go a minute without talking because life gets hectic, we will always be able to pick up right where we left off. She challenges me to be a better me and I have grown so much for it. I hope to be half the woman she is someday.

Jessica is Jarod's sister. She has a fun, unique, and exciting personality and is constantly teaching me things. We share a passion for cats and plants and this shared passion has in turn built a sisterly relationship among us. She is incredibly intelligent and witty. She is the best Sister-In-Law I could have asked for.

Emarie and I bonded over throwing when she was younger. Now, she is a young woman who I consider one of my little sisters. She refers to me as her "Adopted big sis", if that tells you anything about our relationship. She seeks me out for advice and it makes me so happy to give it to her. She's one of my favorite people to joke around with and spend time with. She keeps me young when I feel like I'm getting old and keeps me up to date on all the high school drama. I'm so lucky to be her "Adopted" big sister.

Shawntea always supports my endeavors and gives me amazing advice along the way. She claims me as one of her own and keeps me positive when I am feeling down. The love she shows for those she cares about is unmatched and I am so incredibly lucky to be in that circle of people.

Abbey and I have been through our fair share of hardships together, but it always brings us closer to each other. She's always down for an adventure and her laugh is extremely contagious. It is impossible to be in the same room as Abbey and be in a bad mood. She's a good listener when you need to rant and gives good advice when you need it. Everyone needs an Abbey in their life.
