Three years ago an amazing woman who lived in my building asked me to be her roommate. I eagerly said YES; I knew she was the kind of person I wanted to be around. That decision has shaped my life in SO many ways, and I couldn't be more grateful for the opportunity I've had to grow with and learn from Emma Jo (yes, we're both named Emma). Emma Jo, thank you, thank you, thank you for being such an amazing friend and confidant to me. I can't imagine what my life would be like if you hadn't been in it.
Emma Jo is one of the most fun, down-to-earth people I know. After our year as roommates, Emma Jo married this pretty fantastic man named Jeff. They really are a perfect match for each other. I feel so blessed to have been a part of their lives. I was so excited when Emma Jo asked me if I could take some pictures of her and Jeff in their graduation gowns! What a fun idea! We did some portraits as well, just showcasing how adorable they are together. We started in the periodicals section of the library (where Emma Jo and Jeff spent quite a bit of their dating life) and then headed around campus, drinking in the fact that we were DONE! Congratulations, guys! I wish you nothing but the very best in your new, real-world life! :)

It's so true. I'm pretty sure the only big thing that wouldn't have been different if you hadn't asked me to room with you would be my major. :P I love you too! :D
