Birthday Vacation; Aruba

March 29, 2021 | Leave a Comment

Can you all believe this is the first vacation Sekou and I took out the country without the kids?!, Yea i’m just as shocked as you all. It was a much needed break. Being able reset, and unplug from everything was everything and more. Being able to enjoy each others company for those few days was nostalgic.

Arbua was one of the most beautiful islands i’ve experienced, so peaceful, with the most serene blue waters, and white sand. The most polite people who all were so concerned about how their island was treating us. Would definitely recommend for a baecation, solo, or family trip. A place you’d want to visit to unwind, and feel relaxed, which we spent most of our time doing. The island is pretty small, but theres plenty of things to do. We visited DePalm island, which is a private island off of the main island, literally a 5 minute ferry ride. We went snorkeling, took pictures with flamingos, and relaxed. Although the beach there is very rocky, it’s a nice place to enjoy excursions, even for the kiddies, and just chill. We also seen people driving UTV’S around the island, which looked really cool, something I hope we can do next time we visit. Also, we heard great things about Arikok Park, something else to add list for our return trip.

If you haven’t visited Aruba put it on the list. I had it on my vision board for the past 2 years, I had to ask Sekou if he was peaking at my board, because literally checked 3 things that were on my board in 1 trip; Grateful, and thankful. Overall I’d definitely recommend!!! What vacations spots are on your list to visit?

Here is a photodump of pictures we took in Aruba.

If you haven’t already go purchase my mother in-law’s book ‘Meditation Madness‘
Look how cuteee they are!!!
Let’s talk about these braids I did. The black woman is so damn talented, if you didn’t know already!!!

Thank You

March 23, 2021 | 2 Comments

Sekou and I want to thank you all for the love, omg we can feel it all. So thankful for all of our family friends, and internet friends; sending their love, and best wishes. It means so much seeing our daughters, and family so happy that we’re taking this next big step. Friends that both Sekou and I have known since we were 9 were reminiscing on their memories of us; the sweetest. We just want to let y’all know that we are grateful.

Many of you were asking of the run down on how it went, and even the video of the proposal. Although the internet can’t get the video lol I will say that the moment was so beautiful. To give a brief synopsis, we were at dinner on the beach at “Flying Fish” in Aruba to be exact. We were surrounded by water lightened with blue LED lights. We were talking about family our future, what seemed to be our regular dinner conversations. Words of love, and appreciation were shared, and then boom there Sekou was on one knee with the most beautiful ring asking me to marry him; how romantic.

It’s so crazy that i’ve known Sekou since I was 9, and I knew this day would come, but after he popped the question I started getting butterflies, and I couldn’t even contain myself, I didn’t even eat my Lobster and Shrimp I ordered, still mad about that. You know that feeling you get in your stomach when you’re soooo excited about something, yea that feeling. I really didn’t think I’d react like that, but you know what It felt perfect it felt right. We are blessed to have crossed paths in this lifetime.

So thank you all for your well wishes. We Love You!

Love is Love

March 22, 2021 | 2 Comments

WOW!! This birthday was one for the books. I cannot even describe it into words. I’ve literally been trying to gather my thoughts, and my words, but sometimes the dictionary just doesn’t have words to match the internal feelings. However, I can see it feels so right, it feels so perfect.

I AM MARRYING MY CHILDHOOD SWEETHEART Y’ALL. It’s been a long time coming but the timing is so perfect, perfect for us. I knew this day would come, but for some reason I still have butterflies from the moment he asked for my hand in marriage. So grateful and thankful for the continued blessings; the blessing of love, and togetherness. I pray that we continue to build a bond so strong, of respect, love, communication, laughter, fun, and all things love. Thankful that we can share these moments of love with our daughters first hand, to show them what unity looks like, and means.

I’m just going to leave this right here, and bask in it all. Here’s to Eternal Love!!!!

Birthday Dinner

March 19, 2021 | Leave a Comment

Turning 30 has me feeling so renewed, so grown, so sexy, just all the good things. I am ready to take on this new chapter in life and so excited to see what’s to come, because everything just feels so right; right here, right now.

The other night I celebrated my birthday early with some of my sisterfriends. Let me tell you about my sisterfriends; growing up I always had a lot of friends, and throughout the years I’ve maintained just about all of my friendships; and the ladies you see in this picture are most of them, the ones I hold so close to my heart. These girls really bring out the best in me. They’re always there celebrating me, encouraging me, and praying for me. It’s so hard to find the words to explain the kind of bond I have with each and everyone of them, but I will say that every girl deserves true friendships like this; filled with love and loyalty, whether it be 2 girlfriends or a gang (gang gang lol).

The other night hearing all of my friends share their favorite memory of me, had me in tears, and laughter. You really never know how much you impact the people around you, just for being yourself, being a pure soul, being genuine, and giving love. I say all of this to say – Give Love y’all; always, it goes a long way.

A few pictures from dinner, I couldn’t pick which pictures I liked best, so y’all getting all of them!

Also dinner at Lamia’s Fish Market was such a vibe, y’all should definitely check out. Super cute for date night.

My Star Baby

March 3, 2021 | 1 Comment

Hey Fam,

What have yall been up to. I hope you all are hanging in there taking it one day at a time. We are excited about the warm weather approaching. We’ve been getting teased and i’m just ready for mother nature to buss out, so we can hang. I miss y’all, and can’t wait till we can have another mommy meet up, which will be sometime hopefully sooner than later. What would y’all want to do, let me know in the meantime.

Also, look at this cool hairstyle we did in Lala’s hair. Quick story time; I did bantu knots in my hair a few weeks ago, and everyone hated it LOL, but the one person who loved it was Lala, so she asked me to do it and it came out soooo bomb. I’m really a self taught beautician, well thanks to my sister Tricia for teaching me everything I know. How y’all think I did?

Its the precision for me!!!!
