Diane is Kate's grandmother. She is like a second mother to Kate. She is her best friend. Kate did most things with her growing up, but some of Kate's favorites were going to the bookstore on Saturdays, going shopping for a "must have" wardrobe, or just bumming around on the weekends. Diane was there for everything- every dance recital, piano recital, volleyball game, graduation, and now her wedding.
Lauren is the sister of Tyler, and has quickly become one of Kate's friends. Lauren currently lives in North Carolina, but Kate is convinced (hopeful) she will make her way back to Indy! Our Reesie girl is obsessed with her Aunt LaLa.
Tyler met his unlikely sidekick on his very first day of college at DePauw. The two of them quickly bonded over their newfound college freedom, a resurrected Nintendo 64 from Chris' house, and their laughably different personalities. Their friendship was then galvanized forever when they joined the same fraternity at DePauw and spent the next 3.5 years procrastinating chemistry lab reports, traveling to Europe & stumbling their way all the way to the graduation podium together.
Tyler & Johnny also met while at DePauw after joining the same fraternity. Their friendship began as binge-watching quotable 80's movies in Room 2, closing down The Fluttering Duck, attempting to turn semi-pro at cornhole and...well, they actually just continued to do those things until they both graduated from college. Aside from an ongoing debate over the best root beer, the two have stayed close friends while living in a smattering of fly-over states through the years.
Tyler & Hunter also met during their tenure at DePauw University. The two quickly realized a shared love for everything involving Tom Cruise, tight-fitting tank tops and making fun of Johnny.
The two native Hoosiers also were roommates after graduating from DePauw in Indianapolis. Hunter is currently out on the east coast attending a business school no one has ever heard of with plans to return to Indiana after his (hopeful) graduation.
