Lindsey and I met in 2002 and were inseparable.  Well, we couldnt help it, we had every single class together my Junior and Senior year at Penn State, haha!  We became best friends as lab partners and everyday lunch buddies!  Unfortunately, we don't see each other as much as we did while we were in school, but we often spend hours on the phone catching up.  I'm so glad to have her as my Matron of honor.

Ranti and I have literally been best friends since the first day we met in 1999.  It was the first day of classes, freshman year at Penn State when after my math class I went to the bookstore.  I saw a familiar face from the class I just left and introduced myself.  While we talked I learned that she lived in the dorm right next to me.  I talked her ear off while we walked back to the dorms and became besties.  Almost all of my college memories include this girl.  I'm so glad she will create memories with me as my Maid of Honor!

Ronna and I met on the cheerleading team in high school!  I've truly been friends with this girl for more than half my life :-).  We practiced together and sat next to each other on the bus to and from away games and became besties!  Throughout high school she was always over for dinner and to celebrate special events.  We went to prom together (with our dates, of course) and she was even with me at graduation.  Through the years we have remained best friends.  Even when we go some time without talking, when we reconnect its like we never missed a beat.  So glad she is celebrating this special event with me as one of my bridesmaids.

My sister and one of my best friends.  We have the best conversations and tons of fun hanging out together.  She is thoughtful and funny and keeps me cracking up!  She is 8 years younger than me so she also keeps me young and cool (i think), lol! 

My youngest sis!  I showered this little one with love when she was born.  I was 14 and she was my live babydoll, haha!  When my Dad and Stepmom allowed me take her to the mall while I babysat, people would give me dirty looks thinking that I was a teenage mom.  I didn't care about the glares I would play right along.  I am so proud of the intelligent young lady she has become.  I am so glad to have her beside me at my wedding as a bridesmaid.

Brian's younger sis!  She has only shown me kindness since we first met, quickly welcoming me into her family.  Brian has lots of fun memories of his little sister.  As the cool older brother that could drive, they spent quality time together as he shuffled her to and from band practice.  So glad to have her as one of the gals that prepare the aisle for Bri to meet his bride :-).

Betsy and I met in grad school in 2008.  Our meeting was inevitable as we had class together, the same internship, and jobs at the place we interned.  Now, we even attend the same church and work for the same company!  Needless to say, we have a few things in common.  Over the years we've bonded and become best friends.  The only place for her at my wedding is by my side.  I'm so happy she is one of my bride's maids! 

Aaron and I met back in 2008 in a small group we both attended.  Through various small group events we became friends.  Although the small group no longer meets we have remained friends throughout the years.  Aaron is the type of friend that is not only fun to hang out with, but he's also a reliable guy that I can always count on.  He is one of my closest friends and I am honored that he agreed to be my best man!

Another great guy and reliable friend!  Billy and I met in small group in 2008 and have been friends since that time.  He's been there to celebrate several milestones with me over the years and I am glad that he will be celebrating the biggest one yet with me this August in Jamaica!  

Tatenda and I met when he joined our small group last year.  We became instant friends.  We still study the word together and are helping each other grow in Christ.  Without hesitation he agreed to be a groomsman.  I'm grateful that he will be in my corner on this special occasion.

Jarvis also goes by his middle name, Anthony, which is what we usually call him.  He is fun, energetic, and can be the life of the party.  He likes to go with the flow but he makes sure that the flow is fun. This happy go lucky guy also happens to be Betsy's husband.  We are excited that he has agreed to be a part of the wedding party!

Brad is a laid back, go with the flow, whatever is making everyone happy is cool with me type of guy.  He loves Jamaica and has been there several times.  This easy going guy also happens to be the Matron of Honor's husband.  We are so glad that he is part of the wedding party!
