Guest Spotlight - Amy Thompson

Wedding guests are coming from all over the country so I thought it would be fun to start introducing you to each other now. In "Guest Spotlight" I'll periodically introduce guests to keep you (and myself) entertained. Our first Guest Spotlight is Amy Thompson.


This is a picture of me and Amy from this summer but we've known each other since meeting in the second grade at Thornton Elementary School (AKA DeVaney Elementary School) in Terre Haute, Indiana. Amy recalls a story about how we met on the playground jumping rope. We then went to Woodrow Wilson Junior High School for grades 7-9 but split in high school, Amy going to Terre Haute South and me to Terre Haute North. We stayed friends and played tennis every summer in the Terre Haute Junior Tennis Association. Here is a picture of us at cotillion in high school...


That picture cracks me up. Amy is an Indiana University graduate for both undergrad and law school. She's currently living in Manhattan practicing law and writing her second novel. She travels more than any one I know -- including a trip to see me and Shane in Australia -- and knows all the best restaurants in the city. Shane and I are really excited to have Amy at our wedding!

Anyway, I hope you enjoyed our first guest spotlight. I'll introduce you to more guests soon.
