*us, circa 1998
Jenn & I go waaay back. I think we were 11 years old when we met (fortunately for me, but unfortunately for you, we didn't take a lot of pictures of ourselves at that age). Growing up, we did everything together: school, church, seminary, shows, dances, secret clubs, trick-or-treating, prank calling, cheesy soft-focus mall photo's, knott's scary farm, toilet papering, road trips, you name it. Just last summer we took a girls trip to Hawaii. I'm so glad we've stayed such good friends over the years. She's more than my B.F.F., more like C.O.F.T.O.F. (you might not know what that means, but she does).
On October 10th, 2008, Jennifer Bartlett became Mrs. Jennifer King. The day was perfect. She's always beautiful, but on her wedding day she was radiant. I mean it, she was really glowing. I could tell they were so happy and I was thankful for getting to be a part of their special day.
The pre-wedding festivities included fun bridal showers and a karaoke/pizookie bachelorette party.

Shawni, Kelly, Jenessa & I had a great time together as bridesmaids. We partied all day, danced all night, then had a rock-band after party at my house. So fun.
