In The Magnolia Story fans will finally get to join the Gaines behind the scenes and discover:
The time Chip ran to the grocery store and forgot to take their new, sleeping baby
Joanna's agonizing decision to close her dream business to focus on raising their children
When Chip buys a houseboat, sight-unseen, and it turns out to be a leaky wreck
Joanna's breakthrough moment of discovering the secret to creating a beautiful home
Memories and photos from Chip and Joanna's wedding
And more...
Discover the secret to Chip & Joanna's success-and the ups and downs they experienced along the way. You'll laugh, maybe even cry, and realize that you can also dream big in your own life.
