Meet The Owners
Hi, we're the brantleys!
Carrie, Bo, and their family are proud to call Friendswood, Texas home. Carrie and Bo have been married for over 25 years and are the proud parents of two Aggies, Ty and Hannah.
When they're not at The Bee, you'll usually find them traveling, cheering on Texas A&M, playing beach volleyball, or enjoying time with Bear and their other four-legged family members.
