Reena is likely dealing with patients or sleeping right now, so please excuse the bullet points:
BASICS: met Mandy freshman year in college and quickly became best friends and roommates, now finishing up residency at Penn and getting ready to start GI fellowship at WashU, engaged to a fabulous (continued)
I have known Korey for 10 years now. He and I started at Amazon around the same time - I don't think either of us knew what we were getting into, but we almost immediately hit it off...despite the fact that he was a Jarhead and I was a Squid. Through a baptism of fire, both in our personal and professional lives, we became very close. He was there with the birth of both of my boys, and I was there when (continued)
Brandi & Mandy (I'm fairly certain friendships built on names that rhyme are scientifically proven to stand the test of time) met a little over two years ago when Brandi accepted the position of babysitter..I mean Executive Assistant...for Mandy's team at Amazon. They have (continued)
I've never had to write a biographical blurb. I made some notes here to type up for the wedding website:
"Mike and Mandy have known each other for a long time, since their time on Exxor where Mike learned to take on the various forms of water while Mandy could transform into the shape of any animal"-- oh, wait, that was the Wonder Twins from the Super Friends. Sorry, wrong (continued)
Mandy & I met when I worked at CSC (first job out of college) & have been friends since. I live in Houston & am not a big fan of spiders or knives. I'm a professional sleeper and don't expect to find me awake before noon. I love to surf, and started to take swim lessons three weeks ago. And noooo, you don't need to know how to swim if you're surfing in water that goes up to your chest. You just stand when you fall off your board. :D And yeeees, I do know how to swim -- if you (continued)
I met Korey at Boeing around 1997. I knew at that time he was a perfect match for our team – funny, friendly, outgoing, hard worker, diligent, reliable, trustworthy, and laidback. I think one of our first conversations was beer. Beer was always our number one priority, whether we are drinking or making it. (continued)
I met Korey at work around 1997 at Boeing. We brought him into our group as a System Administrator until he bailed on us to work at Amazon. We would occasionally go to the driving range during lunch to hit a bucket of balls, we called that an “Impact Meeting”, made it sound like we had a working lunch. Korey, Mandy and I keep in touch thru Mariner’s games, Wine Pairing Dinner parties, Wine walks, Wine tastings ….wait, is there a theme here? (continued)
Well basically I am Kelsey Mandy's 14 year old sister, I love to play sports, and thats mainly what i do when i have free time. I met my sister Mandy when i was a baby/born. I have known Korey for a couple years i think. I first saw him in a picture Mandy sent on an email to my mom. (continued)
We want to thank our party members and readers from the bottom of our hearts for being such great friends. They've also done so to help us with the wedding, providing moral support, feedback on decisions and reality checks when we needed it. They are absolutely awesome. We've asked each of them to write a small blurb about themselves so that you can learn a little about them.
