My beautiful daughter Regan, mommy is so glad that you are able to share this special day with me. Since the day you were born I wanted you as my flower girl, and all in perfect time, it is happening. I love you so much!!

Kodi is a wonderful friend and the friend I have known the longest. We grew up together and she lived behind me for many years. Kodi has been with me through everything good and bad and no matter where we are in life, I always know that I can count on her for anything. Kodi is Jalen's God mom and was in the delivery room when he was born. She helped me in so many ways as a single mother raising Jalen.  Friends like Kodi are rare and not everyone can say they have true friends like her!! ;) 

Erica, my dawg!! I have been friends with Erica since around 8th/9th grade.  We mainly met through basketball and became good friends throughout high school. Erica was always my go to girl and I could always count on her to just "be" with. We could have the best time renting movies and just chillin, we never needed to do anything major to have a great time. I feel so at ease with my girl and feel like no matter how far apart we are we can always jump right back in to being best of friends. All we need is something good on t.v. like Oprah or a few beers on ma and pa Frueh's porch when I am back home!! :)

I didn't meet Dani until after I graduated high school, We always went to opposite schools but after hanging out with her one time, I knew we had so much in common and that we could have a great time together, and that we did. Our time hanging out was limited before I moved away but we had so many great times. I can always count on Dani to never judge me and to always be there when I really need her. If I am ever famous, she will be the one to have all the tabloid dirt on me!! :)

Having Krystal as a friend was always like having a big sister. I looked up to her and was so grateful that she thought Kodi and I were worthy enough to tag along with her wherever she went. Krystal always knows how to have a good time and is a very caring and loyal friend. Krystal is a very busy person, but she will always make time for you when you need her. Other than knocking me over in a boat into freezing waters Krystal has always been an amazing friend!! ;)

One thing I have found over the years is that, as an adult, it is very hard to make female friends. Ciara is one of the first real friends I have made since moving away from home. It is easy to talk to Ciara and keep talking to her. I am never at a loss for words around her and feel like we could chat forever (with no children around) She is always running late and never answers her phone but that's okay because she is a great friend!! She tells it like it is and is an amazing mother to her 3 children. 

I met Marcela through my job and am so thankful that we crossed paths. Marcela is a very thoughtful friend and is always willing to help me out. I have traveled many places with her from the West Coast to the East Coast and even all the way to Berlin, Germany. She is my traveling roomate and a great friend. She is such a hardworker and coming from a small town with a good work ethic myself, Marcela may have me beat!! We both have a strong personality but I enjoy spending time with her and traveling with her...next stop a Bahamma cruise in April...hope you are ready Marcela!! ;) 

I have known Kristina since middle school and in high school we had lockers next to each other. We became friends through basketball and even better friends after high school. Kristina drove me to the hospital the night I had Jalen and was very concerned that I would "make a mess" in her car!! ;) She was with me to welcome Jalen into the world which I was very grateful for. Kristina is a great friend and I am so glad she can be a part of my wedding.
