Maid of Honor, Thither Shar
My favorite sister! I've known Sharon all her life ;) She's one of the most creative and talented people ever! She blows me away with her passion and skill in art and music (a JDL Capt'n!). She's got spunk and some hilarious, yet genius comebacks. She's got a heart for God that I admire. I even turn to her for advice at times. Though she's soon to graduate high school, I see her as the little chunky baby she was years ago. She'll always be my baby, even though she's practically as tall as me. I think I&apo;m the luckiest sister ever. I've got the greatest sisters who double as best friends. I love you, thither!
Maid of Honor, Abby Thither
My favorite sister! Sharon got boring after awhile, so I&apo;m so glad Abby came along a few years later. She sings so beautifully and is killer at violin. Oh, and have you seen her hair? She's rocks these beautiful hairstyles! Abby's passion for the Lord is beyond her years. I love how excited she gets when I come home from school. She'll run out of her room and to the garage yelling "Miiiiiiish!" and give me a giant hug. Abby is my little baby, and she always will be :) I can go on and on about how awesome my sisters are! They're the best sisters and best friends I could ever ask for. Love you so much, thither!
Jelly
Rebecca and I have been friends for such a long time! She is Godly, beautiful, and one of the kindest souls I've ever met. We've gotten even closer since we went to UTD together. I am extremely grateful for our many sleepovers and study sessions. Even though school kept us busy, we met up almost every week to study the book of Proverbs and encourage each other in prayer. Honestly, I've missed her like crazy this last year with us in different schools, but luckily she is coming to my medical school next year! Yippee!
Little Sis
Elizabeth (Samuel's niece) is already family. She has popped up in several of our family pictures :) I&apo;m so glad that she is now officially our little sister. I have tons of memories of Elizabeth as a little baby! She was and is still a cutie! Elizabeth always had a wish in the back of her head that her Sammy and Mishal chechee got together. Looks like dreams come true! She's growing up to be a beautiful girl, and I&apo;m so happy to have her as family now.
James
My friendship with Amy began back in middle school. Thinking back, there are so many memories — all the teachers we (I) talked back to, notes we used to pass, and chats we had. Amy is beautiful both inside and out. She's got a passion for God and His people. Her kind and caring heart towards others is a trait I admire. We've been there for each other through our many ups and downs. I&apo;m so excited that she, too, is on the journey towards marriage soon. I cherish our friendship beyond what words can say.
Meggy Weggy
Megan and I became friends back in middle school during our awkward puberty stage. I&apo;m pretty sure that's why we became friends — we were so weird and weird-looking that no one else wanted to befriend us! Throughout the years, I've had a ton of fun stealing her family's food, blasting our music while we drive, and just doing some crazy, goofy stuff. On the few occasions we are serious, I love that I can count on her. She's such a beautiful and talented woman, and I&apo;m glad she's been a part of my life for all these years.
Bacon
I really didn't make many close friends in college, but there was something so special about Stacey. We started talking one summer as coworkers at the residence halls, and we just clicked! She is a beautiful, talented, loving person with a heart of gold and such warmth to her personality. We are both not the biggest fans of mushy-gushy feelings, so I&apo;m sure she's laughing right now... and crying (we're both softies inside)! I love how we encourage each other through prayer and Bible verses. Even though our friendship started recently, I feel like I've known her forever.
