Maybe it is time to let someone else pick for her. But can she handle the ...

Montana, my favorite place. I didn't purposely find the building there, honest. But man, am I glad that I did. Billings is a great place to open an authentic Italian restaurant. My siblings will get used to the much smaller city, at least it's not a tiny town like a lot of the other places in Montana. We're opening a restaurant because it's been our dream since we were little kids. We all loved cooking with Nonna every afternoon. She taught us how to make all her authentic Italian recipes. We've been saving every penny since we were old enough to earn money and we're finally ready. I was ...

Half of us are married, four more to go. I will be last, I'm always last. That's just how it always is. I liked it that way, I never had anyone anxiously waiting behind me. My three single brothers will find their girls quickly, and then it'll be my turn. I was worried about Enzo and Nico, they were not ready for marriage until recently. But they were doing a lot better since we moved here and opened the restaurant. Something about finally making our dream happen really helped them grow up. I think that moving to Montana, and leaving their childhood home behind, is what did it. That was ...

Middle-of-nowhere Montana, so not where I want to live. But this is where we could make our dream come true, so I was sucking it up and making the best of it. At least I was able to leave the ghosts of my past back in New York where they belong. I wouldn't miss them one bit. And who knows, maybe I will be able to move on if I can find the woman that speaks to my soul. That would be the only way, I could never trust anyone else with my heart. It's her or no one. And even if I do find her, it's going to take a lot for me to get to the point that I can let go of my heart again. It's been ...

Getting without earning makes you lazy and ungrateful. That was what Gramps always said. He believed it so much he decided to put it into action in his will. His family would have to earn their inheritance, no freebies. He painstakingly made a plan for each one of his family members, picking what they needed to work on the most. But how would they take it when they found out? No doubt some of them won’t be happy. But if they want their inheritance, they’ll just have to suck it up and do it anyway. They weren’t getting it for nothing. She found her perfect match, now it's time for him ...

I'm finally going to Madagascar, and I'm so very excited about it. This has been a dream since I was very small. A dream I didn't think was possible for the longest time. But it is, and I was about to make it happen. This is going to be so incredible, I just know it. The only problem, we're getting a new member in our group. I'm worried, how will it affect the group dynamic? I hate that we'll have to split up during meals now, but I can't let anyone get hurt. This is the best way to ensure that doesn't happen, so it's what we're going to do. It'll be fine, right? I'm sure it will. But ...

Hidden right under our noses is a whole society of people that we know nothing about. By all appearances, they’re just like us. But they have a secret they’re keeping, and an incredibly hard job to do. They’re determined to keep their secret and do what they were created to do. It’s simply yin and yang, light and dark, everything needs an opposite. The war to maintain balance is real. If one side overtakes the other, everything collapses. The battle is constant, and the royal line is determined to keep the balance between light and dark. But it’s getting harder to maintain. ...

I have mixed feelings about Egypt. I'm really excited to go there. It's been on my bucket list for a long time. When you have a dream to see the world, Egypt has to be on that list. Seeing the great pyramids and all the tombs are a must. Nothing could keep me from going, that's all there is to it. Then there are the negatives that I'm really not looking forward to. Ten days is a long time to not be allowed to hug the people I love. I went way too long without hugs, I hate that they'll be restricted again. That's by far the worst of the negatives. Having to put an air filter mask on my ...

Africa didn't go as well as I'd hoped, three seizures in one trip was way too many. I really hope that I won't have to give up my dream. Especially now that I have such an amazing group of friends to travel with. Plus, I have Brad to think about. He'd definitely give up his dream with me if I have to. I can't do that to him. I really hope that the new meds my doctor gave me will stop the seizures like he's hoping that they will. I'm heading to Italy next to test them out, we'll see how it goes. Then I'm heading to meet my eventual in-laws, and I'm incredibly nervous about it. Wish me luck, ...

So many adventures, so little time. Our next adventure is Tina and Brett's wedding. I'm so excited about that. Brett is so perfect for her, and I couldn't be happier for my friend. Tina deserves the best, and I couldn't be happier that she found exactly that. Beating my fear of California is happening after the wedding, and hopefully I'll find some more memories there. I really hope it works, and I don't find any more scary memories that no one knows about. They all insist that there aren't any more, but what if they just don't know about them? It's likely just an irrational fear, but it ...

Windy Morning, that’s what my mama named me. Who knows what she was thinking. She somehow thought it was a good idea. She says it’s a cute name, but I’m pretty sure she’s the only one that would agree with her. She was just as “cute” with my siblings’ names. After me is my brother, Sunny Morning. Rainy Morning is our little sister, and the baby brother is Stormy Morning. We’re from Gusty Rock, a tiny town on the Oregon Coast. When I say we’re from Gusty Rock I mean it’s been home to every Morning since the beginning of time, or for as far back as anyone can remember, ...

Billings, Montana. That's my new home, and it's not nearly as bad as I assumed it would be when Angelo insisted that we move here. I actually rather love it. My family has been incredibly blessed for coming here. The restaurant is doing incredibly well, better than we could have ever imagined. Almost all of my siblings and my aunt all found their special someone here. They're all making me lots of nipoti, and I love it so much. Well, Zia Emilia obviously isn't. She still isn't married to Tanner yet. I don't know what they're waiting for. It's been almost a year that they've been dating. But...

She so sick of men and their dating games, ugg! She wants a man that's ready for marriage, and won't date other women behind her back. Maybe if they're under contract, they'll stay true to her. He's so lonely, and dating around just isn't working at all. his friends have been pestering him for years to let Willow set him up, maybe it's time to finally let her. He's ready for a wife and family of his own. Family, a foreign concept, but a very appealing one too.

Well they can't dispute he has a life outside of work if he gets married... She's put her entire life into her career. But as she sees that she's the last single one of the family, and everyone looks incredibly happy, she realizes it's time for a life outside of work. But who has time for dating? Certainly not her. So the matchmaker all her siblings used is her best bet.
