Brayden and Andrew finally were able to go to school for the first time together in high school, where Andrew relished being able to see his best bud every day and participate in sports with him. Despite Brayden working full time and Andrew going to school 1000 miles away, Andrew has always felt as if there is nothing that can weaken their childhood friendship.
Christina Meyers
Bridesmaid
Taylor and Christina met through Andrew the Christmas break of 2018. Taylor's first memory of Christina was her running out to the car and hugging her before even acknowledging Andrew, after her and Andrew drove 14 hours up to Oregon.

Christina is one of the strongest people Taylor has met and has the gift of making everyone feel welcomed and loved. Taylor could not have picked a better sister.
