Laycie is Haylie's younger sister. They first met minutes after Laycie  was born, after Haylie chased the nurse down the hall to take a picture with her new baby. It was love at first sight!  Laycie is spunky, creative, ambitious and so incredibly smart. Laycie, Joe and their pup Lilikoi live about 10 minutes from Michael and Haylie and have been busy renovating their new home.

Nathan and Michael met in 2016 when Nathan interviewed Michael for an instructor position at his company. Since then they have spent many hours fishing, snowmobiling, talking about the business, moving couches and shopping at Costco. Nathan lives near Michael and Haylie and has a beautiful 2 year old daughter Makayla.

Kendra and Haylie met through their Theatre troupe Freshman year of high school. They spent countless weekends pool hopping, eating gummy bears, watching FRIENDS and performing in shows. Since then Kendra has moved to the Seattle area where her and her Fiancé Ryan have bought a home and welcomed the CUTEST pup, Diesel. Kendra and Ryan are getting married 10/20/22 and Haylie is honored to be one of her Bridesmaids.

Ryan and Michael met working on the ambulance together. They spent countless hours driving around and I'm sure the content of conversation was nothing short of hilarious. One time Michael posted that he was looking for a certain type of Whiskey and Ryan and his wife Cat drove an hour round trip so they could show up to the Halloween party with it in hand! Ryan and Cat live about 20 minutes from Michael and Haylie with their two sons and dogs.

Amiela and Haylie met in August of 2013 when they enrolled in the same EMT program at a local college. They've been classmates, roommates, co-workers and friends. Amiela is currently crushing it in Nursing school and we can't wait to see where this new career takes her. Amiela, her Husband Steven and their three labs live in a neighboring city from Michael and Haylie and they get to visit frequently.

Jeremy and Haylie first became friends when they spent a couple years running allover the state of WA on the ambulance. Michael and Jeremy then became good friends when Jeremy started staying with them several nights a week to be closer to work. They spent a significant amount of time taking about fire departments, guns, trucks, home projects and more. Jeremy lives 2 - 2.5 hours away (depending on whose driving) with his wife Christie and their two dogs.

Cassie and Haylie went to the same elementary school and played softball and basketball together for many years. They spent every night they could at each others houses watching Crossroads and Blue Crush, dancing in the living room and jumping on the trampoline. Haylie was honored to be one of Cassie's Bridesmaids and is so thankful Cassie has agreed to be one of hers. Cassie and her Husband Brandon currently live in Oregon with their sweet boy Oliver and adorable pup Enzo.

Like many of the others, Michael and Kale met through work. Kale is typically the life of the party and there are countless stories to support this. Find his wife Tailar at the wedding and ask to see his Halloween costume from last year. Kale is a Paramedic and lives in Benton City with his wife Tailar, daughter Ellie, son Rowan and two dogs.

Peyton is Haylie's youngest sister.  They met when Peyton was just 5 years old and since then Peyton has impressed Haylie many times with how funny and creative she is. Peyton loves drawing, painting and gives the most thoughtful gifts. Last Summer Peyton and Haylie got to spend some quality time together when they took a trip to the East Coast for Summer camp. Haylie had so much fun watching Peyton experience flying and East Coast accents, both for the first time. Peyton is starting high school and active in school Leadership activities, track and soccer.

Harper is Michael's niece and Haylie can't wait to officially be her Auntie! She gives the best hugs, LOVES her kitties and is getting really good at swimming. She does SO well in school and is the best reader. This past Fall before leaving on a family trip to Hawaii,  Haper was determined to learn how to say the state fish, Humuhumunukunukuapua'a, and SHE DID! Find her at the wedding to ask her about it! We are excited to watch her grow into a young woman and are already so proud of all she has accomplished.
