I am still learning the proper use of Bootstrap 3 and was wondering if you all could help me out. I would like a layout something like this:
Label Label
Textbox Textbox
Label Label
Textbox Textbox
Label Label
Textbox Textbox Textarea
I know that if I use the .form-group it will allow me to accomplish the Label over the top of the textbox. How can I assure that this happens in a column yet allows for some inline things like the example with the two textboxes alongside each other?
As mentioned earlier, you can use the grid system to layout your inputs and labels anyway that you want. The trick is to remember that you can use rows within your columns to break them into twelfths as well.
The example below is one possible way to accomplish your goal and will put the two text boxes near Label3 on the same line when the screen is small or larger.

You could use the bootstrap grid system :
<div class="col-md-6 form-group">
<label for="textbox1">Label1</label>
<input class="form-control" id="textbox1" type="text"/>
</div>
<div class="col-md-6 form-group">
<label for="textbox2">Label2</label>
<input class="form-control" id="textbox2" type="text"/>
</div>
<span class="clearfix">
