Bridesmaid
Emily's bestie since babyhood. Fun fact: On a Door County weekend in the summer of 2012, Emily, Elena, and Annie (Elena's younger sister), challenged the boys (Charlie Burton, plus Neal and Jay Dalvie) to a dance-off. Led by Elena, the girls meticulously choreographed an entire routine to "Bye Bye Bye" by NSYNC, while the boys danced haphazardly to "Ice Ice Baby." After the performances, the judges (the moms: Carrie, Melissa, and Heidi) could not declare a winner. At this, Charlie famously scoffed, "I didn't shake my butt for a tie."
Bridesmaid
The big sister Emily never had & her mentor in sobriety. Fun fact: When Christina lived in Bay View, she and Emily were regulars at a local Mexican restaurant called Guanajuato's. They went every Thursday at 5pm. The hosts always knew to seat them at their usual table in the back, because they talked and laughed so loudly together.
