When you're younger, the prospect of moving in and growing old with your bestie sounds like the best thing in the world because our friends are our soul mates too.
Most of the time, that's before we've factored in future partners, potentially getting married and certainly having kids - but not for two BFFs.
Madison and Curstin have been the best of friends since they were just 13, and always dreamed of sharing their lives together, but most people assumed that would fizzle out once they settled down with partners.
Not long after their friendship blossomed Madison and Curstin started dating two other best friends, Zach and Carter, and amazingly both couples ended up staying together and getting married.

Still the best of friends, the two couples decided to start trying for a baby at the same time, and miraculously, Madison and Curstin fell pregnant within weeks of each other. First, Curstin gave birth to a little boy called Cade, then three weeks later Madison gave birth to twins, Jennings and Evie.
And, if that wasn't enough, at the beginning of 2021 the two families decided to take their relationship to the next level and move in together to help Zach adjust when he left the military.
Although it was only supposed to be a temporary measure, they've ended up loving raising their families together so much they've decided to make the move permanent.
"We’re raising our kids together as a family - we created our own little family unit and our babies are so overwhelming loved by so many people because of it,” Madison explained in a TikTok video.
"It's been an adjustment and probably won’t last forever - but the memories are so worth it. We’re giving our babies a better childhood than we had. We’re best friends raising best friends – it’s been the happiest year of my life."
