My friend Kelsey and I have traveled a LONG road together. We met in 2003 in Rochester, Minnesota and have spent the last 20 years traversing this life together. This is metaphorically but also physically as we have spent time together in many locations all over the world including Nigeria and South Africa. We have worked at the same company together, lived together, and she is the spiritual godmother to my four children. Kelsey was a college basketball player, and she is also over 6' tall!
Kelsey has had some major losses in her life, but one of the very COOL things is that she is now engaged!
As Kelsey has neared her 40th birthday, we've discussed her not being alone in life, and she became open to the possibility of a partner. We would always say "You need to meet a Catholic John."
So .... meet 6'3" John:
And meet Kelsey's future husband: 6'5" Matt:
Kinda crazy, eh?
They are getting married in Denver on December 23rd of this year! Our whole family is in the wedding. This is so exciting -- especially for my girls who have never been in a wedding before.
I am so crazy excited for my friend Kelsey. This will be such a wonderful thing for her in life. I truly can cry when I think about what she has been through and the man who is going to stand alongside her for the rest of her life.
