My cousin, best friend now matron of honor!  She has been there for me my entire life - whether it be a good or bad influence! On one hand, I can thank her for my temper and dirty room as a child.  On the other hand, I can thank her for loving me unconditionally and supporting me through it all.  She knows how to deal with me even in the most uncooperative of times, and for that she is a saint!  I also want to thank you for keeping Kevin & I involved in your children's day to day lives, and keeping our family close.  I know Grandma Helen would be proud

Jenn, my girl!  We started working together at The Hartford in 2008.  She is the kindest, sweetest person you will ever meet - I dare you to try and prove me wrong! ;)  I do not know what I did to deserve her in my life, but I am proud to call her my best friend.  From summer camping trips to our weekends spent floating on the lake, she always comes with a smile on her face and love in her heart.  I love you Jenn, and I am honored to have you as my brides maid!

There is not much April and I have NOT been through together.  Being friends since 6th grade will do that to you though! Throughout our lives, she has been the only one of my friends I could rely on to always be there for me, no matter what the situation.  Many times your lives get busy, time gets lost and friends slip away.  We have always managed and made it a point to make time for each other.  As we both start new chapters in our lives: her with her beautiful daughter, Aria, and me marrying Kevin, I am confident nothing will change.  Life may get between us, but our friendship will last forever.  Love you AB!

Working at The Cadillac Ranch with Amanda since 2009, we have developed a friendship that is hard to break.  Whether it be painting my entire house, getting us the most amazing grill for our housewarming, or letting me cry on her shoulder at all hours of the night - Amanda is always thinking about everyone else before her.  Even though she is conspiring with Kevin to over take my house with wild animal and dead animal decorations, I love her just the same.  Thank you Amanda, for always being there for me!

Being Kevin's oldest sister, I think Jessica was the "protector" of Kevin, if you will, when I first met him.  I believe I went through something similar to a hazing in order to earn her love and respect.  After many behind the arms pinches, bruises and silent treatments, I think I have passed the test! 

Jessica is one of the most caring, giving, loving people I have known in my life.  Family is always first with her, with sports in a close second!  I mean, who else would dress up as Mickey Mouse for their nephews birthday!  Jessica supports everyone in everything they do.  Whether it be her husband playing in his band or his sports teams, her girls on the basketball team she coaches or her team mates on the teams she plays on, she is always there for them with a smile on her face.  When she returns home, she is greated with the unconditional love of her puppy children, who stampede to the door just to show mom how much they love her.

Jessica, I am honored and privledged not only to have you as my brides maid, but to have you as my sister in law as well.  I love you!

Melissa is the twin of the love of my life and holds a huge spot in my heart! Melissa has a loving, adventurous spirit and is always up for fun! She is always coming with us to fairs, concerts, car shows and more.  We were blessed in having her there to celebrate when we found out we got our new house and even celebrating our birthdays together.  Sharing a birthday with someone your ENTIRE life can be trying, and then here I come along, having the same birthday as them as well, but she didn't gripe, she accepted me into her life with open arms!  For that, I will be forever greatful, and I am proud to call you my brides maid and sister in law.  I love you!

Joanna and her son, Hunter, stole my heart the minute I met them.  Joanna is always helping provide for her and her family in any way possible.  Whether it be supporting them through tough times, helping move, organizing parties or having her hubby fixing my car, she is always the first to help in a time of need.  Her and Matt have raised the sweetest, smartest little boy who I am proud to call my nephew and ring barer.  I love you Jo, and am honored to have you as a brides maid in our big day and as a sister in law.  Thanks for being you!  Never change.
