Michael and I have known Andrew now for about a year and a half. Andrew is one of those guys that not only is respectful but a blast to hang out with! Like the time Michael and I took a couple of guys out to pizza and Michael persuaded *cough cough* Andrew to eat the rest […]

She was as sweet as they come. After just a few fading moments, she was there. No longer shy but beautiful and bold and confident. She had a spirit that invited friendship, a quick smile that appeared on her face at a moments notice. Lips painted a deep vibrant red, eyes colored a light winsome blue […]
