Kacey is Logan's cousin and best friend all in one. I am still convinced that our mom's had a pregnancy pact to make us one month apart to become the best of friends (it worked)! Kacey has been with me through the best and worst moments in my life as we have been attached at the hip since '98. They say you can't fight genetics and I am sure glad I can't because I have a built-in best friend for life.

Kirynn is the sister Logan never thought she would have, but is so glad that she gained. Kirynn is my step-sister and bestie for life. She is the sister I always wanted and I feel so blessed to have her in my life. If we are together, you can guarantee that we are going to be laughing and having so much fun together. Although she denies it, growing up, I was the annoying little sister that followed her around constantly and wanted to dress like her and be just like her. Luckily, as we got older (and I matured a bit), we became more than just sisters: best friends.

What started as a simple Facebook message asking if we could be college roommates turned into a beautiful, lifelong friendship. Chloe and I attended DWU together all 4 years and became best friends. We spent countless hours together in the McGovern Library, cafeteria, dorm room, and at freshman/upperclassmen ministry. Chloe has a calm, inviting presence about her that makes her an amazing friend and support system. Chloe has been with me through thick and thin, and I absolutely adore her and her heart of gold.

Jessica is Logan's not-so-little-anymore cousin and bestie. I never had a little sister growing up, but always thought of Jessi as my little sis. Jessica has grown into a beautiful, smart, and motivated woman who is going to move mountains one day. Jessica and I have always been close, but became even closer when we attended DWU together for one year and spent countless hours in the library "studying", also known as, drinking coffee and gossiping.

Atalie is my step-cousin and bestie. Growing up I always wanted to be just like Atalie, and I followed her around at pretty much every Swanson family event. Throughout middle school and high school, Atalie and I became very close, especially bonding over our shared love for Taylor Swift. Atalie took me to my first ever Taylor Swift concert on her RED tour, and it's safe to say it is my favorite concert of all time. I love Atalie and her love for life and Taylor Swift. She has the kindest heart and most contagious laugh, making any time spent with her a good time.

This friendship was unexpected, mostly because when we first met each other we both made first impressions that each other were "brats". Although our significant other's were best friends with each other, Kadra and I became best friends on our own terms our sophomore year of college. I can always count on Kadra to be brutally honest and to drop anything to be there for me. I wish Kadra and I would've became friends sooner, but I am so thankful to have her in my life now.

Rachel and I became friends through my cousin Kacey, and we all became close friends at DWU. Rachel is always down for a good time and we made many memories together having heart-to-hearts before a fun night out and dancing the night away at Thirsty's. Rachel always has her "dancing shoes" on and is ready to dance the night away when she gets the chance to. Her kind heart and outgoing personality make her a wonderful nurse and friend to many.

People have asked me when Sydney and I became friends, and I honestly cannot say for sure. Sydney has just always been my best friend. Growing up we spent a lot of time at our brother's soccer games making up cheer routines to show the crowd at halftime, to eventually cheering together on the WHS Competitive Cheer team. Sydney and I were born one day a part, and that always made us feel like we were soul sisters. We celebrated every birthday together and had countless sleepovers that involved us laughing all night long about ridiculous things. I am forever thankful for Sydney's kind heart and ability to make any situation fun. Our memories together will truly last a lifetime.

Macy and I go way back to freshman year of college at DWU. Macy was my freshman year roommate and I can honestly say that I don't think I would've made it through freshman year without her and her spunky spirit and hilarious dance moves. Macy always knew how to cheer me up when I was stressed about school or cheer. Macy has grown into an amazing mom to Paislee, wife to Keaton, teacher to many kindergarten students, and friend to me. I look up to her in so many ways. To top it all off, Macy does a great impersonation of Beavis and Butt-head and I really hope she shows us all on the big day.

Abby is Cole's sister and soon will become my sister! Abby has made me feel like I am a part of the family from the start. She makes me feel included and welcome at every family event, and I love getting to hangout with her and laugh together. She is the best mom to three adorable children and I look up to her in so many ways. I am so excited to gain Abby as a sister!

Willow Marie is Cole's oldest niece and is growing into the sweetest (and sometimes sassiest) teenager. Always looking after her younger siblings, she is growing into such a kind-hearted and responsible girl. We are so proud of her and cannot believe how fast she is growing up!

In 2022, Kate officially became Logan's sister-in-law when she married her brother Christian, but truthfully, Kate felt like family from the start. Kate is kind, funny, outgoing and is always down for a coffee or a cocktail. Kate's beautiful singing voice is also one of her amazing qualities.

Cameryn is also Logan's cousin and "little sister." Cameryn is kind, spunky, outgoing, and most of the time doesn't have a filter, but that is just one of the many qualities that makes it so fun to be around Cam. If you are around Cameryn, it's guaranteed that she will make you laugh, even when she isn't necessarily trying to.

Timber Sky is Cole's niece and is sure to keep us all smiling and laughing on our big day. Timber is the perfect mix of sweet and sassy and we love her so much.

Cole's brother who dabbles in a little bit of everything. Need a pergola built? He can do it. Need your shop wired? He can do it. We are so glad Tuck moved back to SD!

Cole's oldest brother who is always giving him a hard time about his height and his hair (which he is jealous of). You can always guarantee that Lincoln will bring sarcasm and laughter to every conversation.

Kaleb and Cole grew up about a half-a-mile away from each other and spent countless hours together riding the bus home from Howard, riding horses, playing video games, and watching scary movies. Cole was invited on many Haas family outings to the Hills to ride horses. Kaleb had 4 sisters and no brothers, and Cole always thought of himself as the brother Kaleb never had.

Logan's older brother who constantly made fun of her growing up, but who now has become her best friend as they have gotten older. Shea and Cole bond over sports, golf, and being left-handed. If you need a real-estate agent, Shea's got you!

Lucas and Cole became friends at Bridgewater-Emery. Lucas and Cole have a shared love for fishing, and Cole always hopes Lucas has room for him to join in his fishing trips as Lucas always knows where the fish are biting. There is never a dull moment with Lucas.

Sam and Cole became instant friends through traveling basketball leagues, and then became even closer friends when Cole transferred to Bridgewater-Emery. You can always guarantee that Sam will eat his entire his side first, and then his main entree. Sam and Cole spend countless hours together ice fishing, leaving Kadra and Logan to worry about them and their shenanigans.

Cole's childhood best friend. Cade was the friend Cole needed in high school as they carpooled to school together everyday and Cole never failed to forget something, in which Cade always reminded him what he needed for the day and for practice after school. Cade and Cole spent many mornings on the way to school calling into HOT 104.7 to win the morning trivia questions or "Name The Tune".

Cole and Tanner have been friends since they were little, as they both attended church in Epiphany and spent many Sunday's together at CCD, leaving Cole's mom and Tanner's mom left to pull their hair out as I'm sure they were a handful to deal with as their CCD teachers. Tanner is always down for a good time at the Hunters Den in Epiphany, and never fails to make us laugh with his inappropriate jokes and contagious laugh.

Kenny is Cole's cousin and co-worker. Cole and Kenny spend almost every waking second together as they work together on Gassman Farms. Logan considers Kenny to be their "third wheel" as he often crashes date nights and is always around. Kenny and Cole spend countless hours together in the summer playing baseball for the Canova Gang and golfing at the Howard Golf Course in their golf cart that they went in on together (without Logan knowing).

The third hard-working member of Gassman Farms. Tim is Cole's cousin and works with Cole at the Gassman Farm. Tim and Cole always have interesting ideas when they are together, but it always makes for a good time. Although Tim is the mayor of Canova, it does not stop him from having a good time.

Finch Michael is Cole's oldest nephew and we are so excited to have him be a part of our big day. Finch is always making us laugh, sometimes even without trying. Although Finch would probably rather be out hunting or fishing, we are hopeful that he breaks out his dance moves for the big day!

Colton is Cole's jack-of-all trades friend. Colton is a plumber, electrician, and a farmer. When Colton and Cole are together, you can guarantee they are going to drink IPA’s and talk about life on the Gassman Farm versus the Plagmann Farm.

Connor is Cole's unique, stubborn, and most sarcastic friend. It is hard to know whether he is joking or not because he can keep a serious face for a long time. Connor and Cole engaged in a lot of shenanigans in high school, typically involving four-wheelers, snowmobiles, and hunting.

Kaedin is Logan's brother-from-another-mother (& father). My step-brother Kaedin is always down for a good time out on the town or for a chill night playing video games. Kaedin is the little step-brother I did not expect to get, but that I am so glad I get to have.

Christian is also Logan's-brother-from-another mother (& father). Christian picked on me a lot growing up and really knew how to push my buttons, but now we have grown into not only being step-siblings, but friends.

Bridger James is Logan's sweet little nephew and godson, and is sure to keep the ring security squad on task throughout the big day. You will most likely see Bridger out on the dance floor singing, "We don't talk about Bruno". Bridger also has some pretty awesome dance moves that he hopefully will break out into at the dance.

Auggie is Logan's youngest nephew and will make your heart smile with his sweet little personality. You may not hear him talk a lot, but you will surely see his sweet smile and hear his contagious laugh throughout the night.

Jax is Cole's nephew and we are so excited to have him join the ring security squad for our big day. Jax has a quiet, shy personality until you get to know him! If you see Jax, ask him about dinosaurs and excavators; two of his all time favorite things!

Cole's youngest nephew, Riggs, is the fourth and final member of our ring security squad. Sweet little Riggs is starting to develop a fun personality and we are so excited to have him be a part of our big day.

Kamry, Katelyn, and Cassidy have been Cole's besties since Day 1 and now Logan officially gains them as besties, too! Whenever the Fab 5 (Kamry, Katelyn, Cassidy, Cole, and Cade) is together, you can guarantee that there will be lots of laughter and memories shared. These girls made moving to Canova a lot easier for Logan!
