Mandy Wood, aka plantus maximus knowlegeous, has been a very good friend to both the bride and groom for several years. Shannon and Mandy are well known for spending hours playing the Wii game "Just Dance". She is always is able to edge out her competition by her signature "double pump" dance move. 

Shannon and Jeanna have been friends since high school. They were notorious in their college chemistry classes for breaking lab equipment and having too much fun. Now that Jeanna and her family have relocated to Portland, she and Shannon have taken up exercising and running together. Last year they ran Portland's Shamrock Race! Occasionally, these ladies enjoy celebrating their accomplishments and athleticism with wine! 

What do you do if you are in the middle of the ocean and need a rope, a scalpel, duct tape and bailing wire? Ask Lisa for it because she has probably packed in her luggage! The dynamic duo make great traveling companions because whatever shannon may have left at home, Lisa brought two! Together they enjoyed traveling to New Orleans, Florida and Mexico. They even experienced the hidden gem of mexican wine...NOT! Even if you can't find delicious wine, as long as you are with Lisa you will at least have a wine opener. 

They say that good things come in small packages, in this case there are two of them. Andy and Shannon have enjoyed having Andy's twin nieces, Coral and Haven for sleepover weekends. They are well known for the candid and witty holiday and birthday cards. Haven takes after her Uncle Andy and is pursuing the drums. And Coral has recently saved up her money to purchase her very own digital camera. 

A little known fact about Mike Dragulin: He is a excellent marksman with a water pistol. He is so skilled that he took away the pride and self confidence of NBA legend, Magic Johnson. Mike out shot the NBA hall-of-famer and stole his stuffed bunny rabbit in a carnival water game. This took place on Mike and Andy's first college spring break trip together over 13 years ago. They have been best friends since. 

How is it possible that one can be an accomplished chief, musician, tech guru, brewer, and best friend? Ask Paul Carrigg. Paul and Andy have played music together for the last eight years. When they are not jamming out on funk music, these two enjoy testing local beer and food at their neighborhood pub. 

Ladies swoon over the magical prowess and virtuosity when Dave plays his big red guitar. Oh, yeah! Andy and Dave have played music together and become good friends over the last several years. They perform with the Supraphonics and Stumptown Jazz Band. Bam! 

Shannon remembers the day her little brother, Mikey, was born. Much to her surprise and disappointment, her little sister turned out to be a boy! being an ambitious older sisiter, Shannon compensated by making him play dress-up. Fortunately, Mike has survived these days of sisterly-torture and still has it in his heart to be an awesome brother!

Andy and Eric have known each other since Andy's birth. Eric was the typical older brother who taught Andy that being smaller can have disadvantages. Much of their childhood resembled a Mike Tyson fight rather than a Leave it to Beaver episode. Since, Eric and Andy have grown close and have become good friends.
