The Girls

"Life's truest happiness is found in friendships we make along the way."
I could not ask for a better or crazier group of friends! I feel fortunate that those that have touched my life in so many ways will be joining us on our special day! All I can say is watch out for the bridesmaids!

KELLIE BREEN
MATRON OF HONOR
Childhood Friend

It's hard to believe that Kellie and I have been friends for 17 years! We met in 6th grade and just never seemed to leave each other! We followed each other through the dreaded flute lessons and prom court, stuck by each other through the lovely teenage years and even followed each other around the country. (from Philadephia to NC!) Kellie just started a new journey of her own, motherhood. On the weekend of Dec. 3rd, Kellie and her husband, Bill, moved into their first home and welcomed their son, William F. Breen 3, aka, Tripp. Kellie is an occupational therapy assistant and lives in Plymouth Meeting, PA.
CARLA FISHER
BRIDESMAID
Friend from home

I met Carla when she started at the same company where Mike and I worked. (in PA) We soon found out that a tiny office wasn't the only thing that we had in common. Both stubborn Aries with a passion for the creative our friendship grew even after Mike and I moved to NC. Now I can't get through my day without at least a dozen emails from Carla! Carla is a scriptwriter and an amateur photographer. Carla's biggest accomplishment is her daughter Renee, who is also our flower girl.
ANITA NEWBY
BRIDESMAID
Friend from college

Anita and I met in college through our sorority and quickly became partners in crime. (I think the crime part may have been my fault) Although we may look alike, (many crazy people mistake us for sisters) our similarities are more than skin deep! From our careers in sports marketing to our love for cheese and her husband - Anita and I are two of a kind. Anita works for the Eagles (and is the single reason they did well this year!) and lives with her husband, Byron, in Philadelphia.
KELLI CREAMER
BRIDESMAID
friend from college

I first met Kelli when we were thrown together as new pledges for our sorority. We quickly became friends and part of an unseperable group! I admire Kelli not only for her great personality, but her ability to do cartwheels (in Robin's living room) and speak fluent spanish after a long night on the town! Kelli and I also shared a (very tiny) room (with 3 other girls!) one wonderful summer in Ocean City. I woke her up each morning in a very special way! Kelli recently returned from a year studying abroad in Argentina. She lives in Washington DC with her boyfriend, PJ.
LAURA HOUCHENS
BRIDESMAID
Friend from N.C.

Laura and I met when she started at Time Warner as the Research Analyst. When they foolishly moved us into an office together, things truly got out of hand. Within a few months we had determined that we had indeed been separated from birth. Another Aries girl, we share a "special place" in our hearts for childhood vacations to Plymouth Plantation, Judy Blume books and vodka and cranberry. I am currently counseling Laura on her fear of "Ronald McDonald." Laura lives in Raleigh and has a "Goldberg" look alike boyfriend - Mike.
RENEE FISHER
FLOWER GIRL

Renee is Carla's daughter and our wonderful flower girl. Renee is 7 years old and in the 2nd grade. She enjoys playing board games and Barbie Detective 2. She also likes gymnastics and hanging out with her mom!
ETHAN WARD
RING BEARER
Kristen's nephew

First let me say ... Ethan, Aunt Kristen and Uncle Mike are sorry we put you on the girls page. We know you hate girls, we just didnt have enough room on the boys page. (someday you'll appreciate being surrounded by all these beautiful women!)
Moving on...
Ethan is Kristen's wonderful 3 1/2 year old nephew. He loves to play the computer and drive his parents crazy and he is very excited about his new brother or sister that will be born in August!
