Calvin followed his scholarship to attend college in Southern Illinois where he was on the baseball team, and Alyson was also attending the same school being from Southern Illinois. The two had each other in class but never spoke until one night at a famous black light party. Alyson pointed Calvin out in the crowd and knew immediately, he was her man. Calvin, didn’t argue that for a second. The two quickly started spending everyday together, making memories, and falling vastly in love with each other. After two years the experiences they shared in Southern Illinois had to come to an end, and life became a lot of long night phone calls and long drives on weekends. They continued to love, share, and make memories together but now they were in the Windy City, seeing even more of what the world could offer! Before long, the best miracle arrived in the form of a beautiful daughter who was named Carlie Cole after her father. The two then became three, and life has been nothing but God sent ever since. A love that stretches, grows, spreads, and holds onto the most important things in life, and a bond that will never fade. Let us celebrate this incredible love in the moments where they say I Do and every moment after!
