Anne is the oldest of Jenna's three younger sisters. She's as sweeter than the many yummy treats she bakes and always brings a sparkle to the room. She never goes anywhere without a book (or two) to read just in case conversation is uninteresting. But if course that is never the case if you are talking about books. 😉

Lucille is the one on the left in the photo. She is Jenna's second to youngest sister and also her look alike. Everyone (including mom and dad) confuse which one is which! Lucille is spunky, confident, mischievous, graceful, and a heck of a rider! Sometimes she would rather talk to horses than people, but is an amazing and close friend to all those she spends time with.

Mary Joy is the youngest of Jenna's sisters. Her hugs are one of the things Jenna misses most being away from home. Her personality can only be summed up as sweet and spicy! Her giggles are absolutely contagious and she always has something witty to say. She too is an amazing horse owner and surprises everyone with her strength when it comes to bossing around the spunky mare she owns. Her courage and kindness are something that everyone admires.

Lindsey is Michael's younger sister and one of Jenna's best friends. She is a big part of why Michael and Jenna are getting married. She was the first to say (about 5 or 6 years ago) that the two of them were made for one another. Lindsey is crazy (the good kind), smart, beautiful, kind, spicy, and never ceases to bring laughter into the room. Anyone who knows Lindsey is privileged to have such an amazing person in their life.

Laura is Michael's older sister and stepped right into the role of older sister for Jenna even before her and Michael were together. She is everything an older sister should be. Beautiful and kind, she always puts others first, and is always there to help and give advice if someone needs it. She is an amazing mother of two and one of the strongest women you will ever know. There is nothing like watching her make children's dreams come true as she shows up at a birthday party dressed as their favorite Disney princess. She can put a smile on anyone's face.

Everyone needs a friend like Lydia. One of the first things she said to Michael when he and Jenna started dating was "all she (Jenna) has to do is say the word and I'm coming after you. Don't you dare hurt her!" Lydia and Jenna have been friends for a very long time and have faced many things together. Lydia is the best kind of crazy. She is beautiful and kind, but also protective of those she loves (as you can tell by what she told Michael). She is strong in her faith and pushes others to strengthen their own as a true friend does.

Amelya has been Jenna's close friend since they were very young. The two of them have been pen pals for about ten years and still write to each other now that they are in college. Amelya is bright and beautiful and always makes everyone around her feel special and loved. She loves the Lord and has a servant's heart that is ready to jump in and make things fun.

Keira and Jenna met at Silver Birch Ranch when they started their year at Nicolet Bible Institute. Some of the best memories from their year together will be the weird conversations they (and other close friends) had on Jenna's bed at two in the morning. We won't say what they were about 'cause "what is said on Jenna's bed, stays on Jenna's bed!" Keira is a crazy and amazing friend. She can make anyone smile with her contagious laugh, but is also there if anyone needs a shoulder to cry on. The year at NBI would have been of far less laughter if she hadn't been there.

Julianna is Michael's little three year old niece. She is so much fun to chat and play with! If you get the chance, you should ask her "what does Uncle Michael say?" 😉 She's a smart kiddo!
