Angela. My sister.  My answered prayer.  You have always been there to love me, challenge me, and stand by me.  Thank you for continuing to do so on my wedding day! 

Melinda is a kindred spirit who shares my love of ice skating.  We can talk for hours about things that make other people's eyes glaze over, like 3-turns, and camel spins.  Just her presence in my life has always been an encouragement to me.  And am glad she will be standing near on my wedding day!

Vickie is the sweetest friend anyone could hope to have.  A little card, a shared laugh, a true blessing from God!  She is the embodiment of the adage "friends forever"!  I can't imagine my wedding without her standing by me!

Jessica shines brightly in my life, her friendship and advise seems to always point me towards God's love.  She will be forever a sister of my heart.  I thank her for lighting up this day in my life, and coming all the way from Colorado to share it with me.

Sarah, my beautiful niece.  Since she was a baby her arms have been wide open to the world, always welcoming each new person and event in her life with joy and anticipation, never wanting to miss a thing.  Now, a lovely young girl, Sarah will stand up with me as my Junior Bridesmaid.  I thank her for welcoming David as her uncle, and joining us in our excitement as we look forward to this special day! 

Paige.  My sweet, gentle niece.  No dress up needed - Paige makes one think of the most beautiful flowers, like buttercups, roses, violettes, and daisies.  Thank you sweetheart, for being my flower girl!

David and I have been friends for about 35 years.  He has always been there to support me through lifes ups and downs.  I was there when he married his wonderful wife Trudi.  Now I am honored to have him stand up with me as I marry the woman I love.  I couldn't ask for a better man.

What can I say about Ryan?  When we first started working together it was by accident, he filled a shift because my partner had left the company.  By the end of that shift we were friends and would have many times to come.  He has been a blessing in my life since that first shift.  Thanks for being there Ryan.

Cody was my first friend at American Ambulance.  We suffered through the long nights in dispatch together (mostly by playing Lord of the Rings RISK). He's goofy and can always manage to make me laugh.  Thank God I found such a good friend so quickly.

My roommate, college buddy, and fellow history nerd.  Ron and I became friends as we struggled through the early stages of Latin together.  When school seemed like it was getting to be too much, Ron was there to keep me smiling.  Gratias tibi ago, amicus mei.

Aaron, one of my soon to be Nephews, is a great little guy.  He is full of energy to keep everyone around him on their toes, and funny enough to make us all laugh.  Aaron will be escorting the Flower Girl, who happens to be his twin sister Paige.  When Aaron heard he would be doing this he believed he would be a Ring Bear, not Ring Bearer.  So, when you see our Ring Bear, ask to hear his roar!
