💘 From First Meeting to Forever… and a Little One Too! 👶💕

Last Valentine’s Day, a special couple who met online chose The Village at Houser’s Crossing as the place to finally meet in person. ✨ Fast forward to August—they surprised me with a visit, and guess what? Not only had they tied the knot, but they were expecting a baby! 💍🤰

Now, the most exciting news of all—their little girl has arrived, happy and healthy! 💕 And at the end of this month, I’ll get to hold this sweet baby in my arms when they bring her to The Village for her very first visit. She’s officially the first baby connected to The Village that I know of! 🏡👣

My guests are more than just visitors—they become part of The Village family. And I can’t wait to welcome our tiniest new member! 🥰
