Ours is a classic tale of boy & girl attending the same church but never meeting until girl’s people decide boy should meet girl, boy’s people aren’t so sure, boy overrules them & arranges a coffee date, girl is convinced there’s not a chance in h-e-double-hockey-sticks anything will come of it, boy immediately charms her & changes her mind, girl eats her words as she falls swiftly & irrevocably head over heels, boy proceeds equally enthusiastically but more cautiously (aka slowly), girl pines impatiently and with very little grace until finally, beautifully, at just the right time and in just the right way, boy asks her to be his forever.
The beginning.
Weekend Update!

Friday, April 19 - arrive in Bentonville! If you’re able to come a little earlier (check-in @ 2pm) we’ll be there doing some setup and would love your help!

We’ll pay you in a free place to stay and loads of pizza!
