Austin fell hard for Bethany the moment he saw her.  “I seriously did!” he told me.  And when Austin says something in that very earnest way he has of saying things, you believe it. I mean, we can see why. Bethany is beautiful inside and out and those eyes of hers can see right into […]

A few months ago, Chloe was at the Opryland Hotel for a culinary conference.  She had no clue that big things were about to happen. After the end of the scheduled activities, her mom suggested that they walk around for a bit.  And when they rounded the corner into the Magnolia area, Isaac was there […]
