Staci & Johnathan Kellett Hokes Bluff, AL

Staci and Johnathan's love story is so sweet. They met in 10th grade and remained sweethearts all through high school. Staci said they broke up for 5 days and then they went back together and have been together ever since.

They are a precious young couple with their lives before them. Thanks for spending your honeymoon with us. Come back and see us someday, ok?

Les & Lesa Payne Childersburg, AL

This June Carl and I will have owned the secret 16 years. If we own it 16 more, I don't think we will ever get tired of meeting our honeymooners! They are so special. Love is a wonderful thing and to share in those moments with sweethearts like Les and Lesa -- well, that's just about as good as it gets!

Les and Lesa, from Childersburg, AL, married last night.

Congratulations, Les and best wishes to the both of you! We love you guys and hope to see you again someday on your anniversary! C & D

Lucky us!

Blackerby and Bussey Double Trouble?

Now, if this isn't "double trouble" I've never seen it! Jason and Brandi Blackerby from Moody, AL (L to R) have stayed with us 5 times in 10 years while their good friends, Leigh Anne and Allen Bussey from Chelsea, AL have stayed with us 3 times in 3 years. The debate was on at our breakfast table...which couple do we love the most?

Look below for the anwser:

One thing I've learned about love...the more it's divided, the bigger it gets.

We love all 4 of you guys. Thanks again for making our weekend so enjoyable.

Can't wait to see you again!

Diann and Carl

PS I think the secret's on facebook now --well, maybe!

Jennifer, the B&B and Mercy Me!

Talk about a small world. Jennifer spent a weekend at the secret celebrating her birthday. (see pictures below this one) Sunday morning at breakfast we were discussing with our guests that we would be leaving to see our son-in-law in Huntsville, Al. Jim (Bryson) is in Mercy Me, a praise and worship band. MM was preforming at the Rock and Worship Roadshow.

Now, you tell me, what's the odds of us running into one another in the huge Von Braun Center?
Seeing is believing! Here's Jennifer and Jim.

Oh, btw, Mercy Me was nominated for and won an American Music Award in November, 2010!

Jennifer McKeever the Birthday Girl!

Jennifer,
We hope you enjoyed a wonderful birthday celebration at the secret! Your delightful personality enchanted all of us. It's true, you are not getting older, you are getting more beautiful!
