Micah and I met at the end of my brief only child run. I don't remember much of those early days but I'm sure they were boring without my partner in crime! She is truly my voice of reason and I don’t know what I would do without her. She is beauty, she is grace, but she will kick you in the face! I could not ask for a better person to be in my corner or holding my dress when I pee!

Scott and Franklin met in kindergarten and have been friends ever since! They have gone through some major ups and downs but they still remain at each other's sides to cheer the other on! Now you can find them swapping war stories about parenting, kicking mine and Jodi's butts at game night, or laughing about something from 20 years ago!

12 very long years ago, Micah, Will, and I gained another sister and brother. She is a great mom to 3 babies! She is not afraid to tell you how it is or bring ramen to eat in case she doesn't like what we're eating! Taylor and I have gotten closer over the years, bonding over motherhood, life, and this weird crazy family we have! (Just ask about the diagram!)

Rachel and I met the day I started working at Sweet n Sassy bakery. Since both of us have RBF, neither one of us thought we would be close but look at us now! 2025 marks 10 years of being friends! Rachel is, and will always be, my best friend. If you ever need to find her, just say something funny and wait for her loud contagious laugh!

Scott and Arielle met in college through her sister, now brother in law, and now husband! Scott lived in the same hall as Ben and since Arielle was dating Ben, they all became close friends! If you get them talking about college, they will undoubtedly end up talking about their notorious Taco Bell run! Scott and Arielle have been best friends ever since and I am so glad that I get to be a part of their friendship while also becoming better friends with Arielle myself!

What can I say about our Maddi Girl!? She is my first love and the one that made me a Mama. We grew up together and she still teaches me things to this day and I make sure she never forgets the 18 hours of labor and missing my 21st birthday! Since Scott and Maddi met, I have never heard this girl laugh so much! Sometimes I just sit in the other room and listen to them pick at each other and argue! Maddi approves! Scott also told her that he was proposing before we left to go to the Opry

I think I kind of already told the story of Scott and Ben while telling the tale of Scott and Arielle. So let's continue, since getting married, Ben and Arielle have 2 beautiful boys - Owen and Drake. Ben enjoys beating Owen in Mario Kart, being outside with both boys, and keeping Arielle from yelling at their next door neighbor! Ben and Scott both put up with not only Arielle and me being Swifties, but Maddi being the biggest Swiftie of them all!

Richard (who also goes by Toot) and Scott are cousins so they go way back! They have worked multiple jobs together but the best stories come from the traveling job they had and the hotels they stayed in! This is where Scott’s love of Drury Inns and hatred for Ohio comes from! They also worked at Hall's Custom Cabinetry together, so if you need cabinets or electrical work done, this is your man! Also fun fact: Scott has been the best man in each of his groomsmen's weddings! (Except Will)

2 months before my 15th birthday, I gained my first brother. Which means, the day I turned 15 was overshadowed by this little preemie turning 2 months old! Now, he is a pun loving, sarcastic, stubborn 17 year old! Long gone are the days he didn't know how to talk or just refused to! If you get Will talking about ROTC, his truck, food, or root beer you can't get him to stop talking! He may be aggressive at times, but he would do anything for his family!

My Harper girl made me an aunt! She is beautiful and sassy! She has big love for her family, singing, and acting goofy! I don't know what we did before we all sat around and watched to see what Harper would do next!

Mav is about as wild as his sister's curls! He's not afraid of anything! He keeps us on our toes but he also has the most contagious laugh! Both Maverick and his sister take a minute to wake up from a nap but once they do, buckle your seatbelts!

Scott met Jodi when she was only dating Franklin. I met both of them when Scott volunteered us to help them move out of their house! In the short amount of time that I’ve known her, Jodi has become such a close friend! From volunteering to go to Alabama to get Mad to spoiling Maddi ROTTEN and family vacations! I know she will do anything for me if I ask! She will even wash my dishes if I DON’T ask!

12 years ago when we got Taylor, we also got this crazy, accident prone, daredevil! He had 2 settings - keeping everyone on the edge of their seats or making everyone laugh. They probably could have named a wing at TriStar Northcrest after him with the amount of times he went to the ER! I hate that I have to put honorary knowing my brother won’t be at our wedding but I know he’s up in Heaven already planning on doing something nuts! So if it rains on the wedding day or someone gets hit with bird poop, thank Hunter!

At the time of the wedding, Miss Haddie will only be a year and a half old. While I have no doubt this smiley little girl can make it down the aisle with her brother and sister. It’ll depend on nap time and her mood. So for now, she just has the title and can hang out with all of her aunts, uncles, and her daddy.
