Thursday November 20, 2008 -- Just -81 days until the wedding!

Bride's Maids

       
 
 
  Kimberly Rutt - Matron of Honor; she is my older sister by 2 ½ years. I was her maid of honor in her May 2002 wedding. I have always looked up to my big sister and she's taught me quite a bit in life (like how to do a keg stand).
 

Leilani Haan - we met in May of 2002 at Walbro Engine Mgmt in Tucson, a former employer, and I saw her Kansas City Chiefs keychain and figured we at least had one thing in common. She's been a great friend since then and is one of the reasons why it was so hard to leave Tucson.

       
 
 
  Michelle Chin - I've known Michelle since we were 3 years old in Moscow, ID. We spoke for hours and had so much in common in preschool. She now lives in Boise and is a registered nurse finishing her service in the Air Force the same month of our wedding!

  Sarah Salazar - Sarah and I have been close friends since college (we actually met at freshman orientation at UofA) and was my roommate for 2.5 years. I was a bridesmaid in her wedding and she's recently had a baby boy with her husband Tomas.
       
   
  Courtney Schrade - Courtney is Mike's niece and is thrilled to be the junior bridesmaid! I have been in her life through much of her childhood and hope to see her grow into a wonderful woman!   Abby and Sophie Rutt - my twin nieces are equally ecstatic to be the flower girls! This will be their biggest role since playing backup infant in Meet the Fockers.
