Their friendship grew so strong and so fast that Emily soon became known as "Momily" to Tina's kids. They've said throughout their friendship "God knew I would need you. He strategically placed us together so we were there when we needed each other most." “Therefore comfort each other and edify one another, just as you also are doing” Thessalonians 5:11

Katie Woodworth

Katie and Emily met Emily's sophomore year of high school. Despite all the "Friends" lyrics of this life, they managed to remain the best of friends. For 10 years now, Katie and Emily have enjoyed the sweet rewards of their unique, honest, goofy, faithful and loving friendship. "A sweet friendship refreshes the soul" Proverbs 27:9

Lulabelle Garrett

Lu an Emily became friends when attending church together in 2010. Lu has been one of Emilys strongest encouragers and biggest advocates. She has consistently lifted her up in prayer and always been a bright light of hope and love. "I long to see you so that I may impart to you some spiritual gift to make you strong— that is, that you and I may be mutually encouraged by each other’s faith." Romans 1:11-12

Abby Pyne

Bridesmaid

Abby and Emily were destined to be friends. Both Caleb and Abbys husband Mike, who play volleyball together, were overly excited about them finally being able to meet in 2019. Well, they were right. All it took was one get together for their friendship to take root. Their friendship continues to grow and their roles with Mike and Caleb have reversed. It's now Emily and Abby who are overly excited to get the guys together! "Perfume and incense bring joy to the heart, and the pleasantness of a friend springs from their heartfelt advice" Proverbs 27:9

Jessica Leman

Bridesmaid

Jessica and Emily met in 2019 when Caleb started introducing her to his family. Between Jessica's wedding planning in 2019 and now Emilys, the two have still managed to find some time to spend together, whether that’s while butchering deer, learning to snowboard, or waiting for Caleb to get his hair cut. Emily is excited to watch their friendship grow as they start walking through life and experiences together as sisters. ""Behold, how good and pleasant it is when [sisters] dwell in unity!" Psalm 133:1
