Keeley was and still is my first best friend. She’s my older sister by two and a half years. She’s helped guide me through life and played a crucial role as my biggest role model. She’s continuously set the bar high and inspired me to chase my dreams without relent. Keeley has a fierce love for her family, friends and stays close to Christ. She's been as perfect of a big sister as Katie and I could ask for. I can’t imagine celebrating this day without her. I love you, sister! 💕

Katie is the littlest of the Sears sisters and our family's biggest blessing. Katie has been bringing the fun to the party and a huge grin to everyone's face since she was a baby; tapping her feet and *attempting* to snap her little fingers while singing "Hey, Soul Sister" in the back of Mom's car. How could I host the biggest party of my life without my fun and spunky little sis by my side? Short answer, I can't. Meet ya on the dance floor! I love you, bug! 🐞

Rachel (used to be Keller) Torma is my sister-to-be! I met Rachel in the summer of 2021. Rachel's kind nature and warm smile immediately helped me feel welcomed, accepted, and at home with the Keller family. Since 2021, Rachel has gotten married and become a mother. Her commitment to her faith and family as well as how gracefully she's navigated motherhood has been inspirational for me. I am so thankful to be joining this family and gaining a wonderful sister. I love you, Rachel! 💚

Jacie Lewis is my younger cousin by four years. She is artistic, creative and has always kept life interesting. Throughout the years, we have bonded over being a little bit more quirky than the rest of the family, our mutual love of animals (specifically dogs), New Mexico and a whole lot more. It's been wonderful to see Jacie find her person, get married and now have a baby!!! I can't wait to see you grow in your new roles in life and I couldn't celebrate today without Jacie (used to be Prichard) Lewis by my side. I love you, Jacie! 🧡

Maci is my sister from another mister, literally. We have been friends turned family for over a decade now since our moms became best friends after meeting through our local 4-H club. I couldn't get married without Maci Kathleen by my side-to share an outburst of laughter after a casual ✨reenactment✨ of our favorite comedian or a serious conversation, because with us there’s not much in between. You didn't get stuck with me like Keeley and Katie, but I sure am glad you continue to choose to be my sister and friend. I love you, Maci! 💗

Kortney Kulhanek, otherwise known as “Kortney Sweet girl on second floor.” Or at least that’s what her contact name has lived on as since it was added to my Snapchat back in 2016. I lived on the third floor and Kortney on the second of the Murdough Hall at Texas Tech University. We are both from small towns, loved agriculture, thrift stores, coffee, and car drives with good music and conversation. We were fast friends. Kortney’s career choice, a county extension agent, is reflective of her personhood-I don’t think you could find a more qualified person to become a bunch of kids role model, help them set and achieve goals all while having the most fun with them along the way. I love you, Kortney! Thankful for TTU & U ❤️⚡️WRECK ‘EM

Kortnee and I met way back in elementary school. I remember a sweet looking girl with a cute hair accessory walking into class on the first day of school- her last name used to be Sanmann and so she was right next to Sears, we’ve been friends ever since. Growing up together and watching Kortnee meet and fall in love with her now husband has been a bit surreal. Kortnee is so loyal to those she loves, a trait I admire about her deeply. She is also shy (when you first meet her) and so kind. I’m very thankful our last names used to start with S & that I have had a wonderful friend through thick and thin to walk through life with. Love you, Kortnee! 🦋💕 peep the yearbook photo, 4th grade!!!

Peyton and I met in Lubbock, TX in 2023. I was looking for a roommate and Peyton was moving back to Lubbock and into her cousin's rental home. Peyton and her two small dogs, Lucy & Bently also needed a roommate- it was a perfect match for Bruno and I. Over the past year of living together our friendship grew over morning coffee and decompressing after long work days/weeks. I also got to watch Peyton fall in love with, get engaged, and marry her now husband!! I am so thankful that Peyton with her kind and understanding spirit came into my life and made the last year in Lubbock such a good one. Love you, Peyton! 💞
