Zachary is the older brother of the bride, and he remembers teaching her how to properly ride a bike without training wheels when she was little.

While doing this he ended up breaking the training wheels on her bike on accident. Shelby and Zachary had many other bike-related incidents in the years to follow.

"I met Andrew in 2001 when he was 2 and I was 4. We were next door neighbors for six years and inseparable during that time- he was my best friend. That is, until he stole my scooter. He never apologized. He still owes me a scooter."

Nathan once threw a sword into Andrew's eye while pretending to die. He would later repeat this process on an unrelated occasion.

Bryce says that Andrew proposed to him with an empty ring box on top of a plateau in Texas. Then they both sat on a bench and read journal entries from geocache.

Sometimes you are blessed enough for the words "sibling" and "bestie" to prove synonymous in your life. Hi, I'm Emily, the little sister/matchmaker. I'm thrilled to see Andrew happily building a life with the love of his life. Congratulations Andrew and Shelby! Love you big!

Ben (on the right in this picture) once accompanied Andrew on a hike under hill and over dale to a 100+ year old cemetery. Pretty nifty.

Doug is married to Andrew's sister, and he said, "I married yo sister but took tantalizing photos with you."
