What’s better than an older sister and best friend in one? Growing up, Christa and Nicole bickered over bathroom time and borrowed clothes—but through it all, Christa has always been Nicole’s constant. Confident and outspoken, she’s shaped so much of who Nicole is today. With Christa becoming a mom to sweet Sophia Margaret and Nicole becoming a Criscio, they’re starting new chapters together—and Nicole wouldn’t want anyone else by her side.

Danielle and Nicole go way back to kindergarten in 2000. A misdelivered package brought their families together, and the girls recognized each other from a shared cubby. From Barbie playdates, summer adventures, college roommates, and now long-distance catch-ups, they've never skipped a beat. Danielle is full of life, hilarious, and endlessly supportive. She’s the friend you go to when you need a laugh or boost of energy—and someone Nicole trusts with everything.

We quickly realized how similar we are, and from then on, shared some of the most unforgettable years together.

Roommates, classmates, coworkers, and now lifelong friends—I couldn’t be more excited to have her standing with me.
