This is long, but read it. ⁣
⁣
Y’all remember our practice engagement shoot, I meant our family Christmas shoot? 😭😂🥰 When I posted these pictures last Christmas, everyone thought that I was announcing our proposal. In full transparency, I thought we would have been engaged by this time. Or at least, in my mind, that’s what I planned. And if you know me, then you know I don’t play about my plans!
⁣
I’m not an ultimatum kind of girl, but I definitely told Richard that we absolutely needed to be engaged by Dec 31... 𝐨𝐫 𝐞𝐥𝐬𝐞. Don’t ask me what “𝘰𝘳 𝘦𝘭𝘴𝘦” meant because I honestly didn’t think that far.⁣
⁣
I learned a couple weeks into December that we wouldn’t be engaged by timeline, and I was outright PISSED about it. Even though I knew it was coming, it wasn’t on my time and I couldn’t trust the process. ⁣
⁣
I prayed about it everyday and eventually decided that I would wait for God’s timing. I was very clear to God though, that Richard only had a couple months into the new year because he would be a fool not to make me his wife as quickly as he could. God agreed 😌 ⁣
⁣
Fast forward to Feb 10th, my life changed. Richard surprised me with the most perfect proposal I’ve ever witnessed and I’m still on a high. Every time I watch it, I tear up. Every single detail was thoughtfully planned and flawlessly executed. Hell, I almost thought I planned it myself lol. ⁣
⁣
I can’t help but think about how different that moment would have been if Richard rushed just to meet this silly deadline I had in my mind. I say all this to say... God be knowing! ⁣
⁣
Anyway, I wanted to flood y’all with these pictures because they are too bomb not to post! Oh, and if you’re ready for the “𝘩𝘰𝘸 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘩𝘦𝘭𝘭 𝘥𝘪𝘥 he 𝘱𝘶𝘭𝘭 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘱𝘳𝘰𝘱𝘰𝘴𝘢𝘭 𝘰𝘧𝘧” video, let me know in the comments! ⁣

From the wine I drink, to the products I use in my home- the little things in life have been bringing me all the joy! [AD]

I’m finally getting to a place where I feel it’s acceptable to reward myself for the hard work I do on everyday. Sometimes the reward is a nice luxury handbag. Sometimes the reward is a few products from @caldreaco, which offers indulgent, multidimensional fragrances that send me on a mental vacation with me never even leaving my home.

I’ve always been conscious about the foods I consume and the products I use on my skin. Now, I’m adding the @caldreaco home care products from @grovecollaborative to my routine. They are plant derived with effective formulas and thoughtful ingredients that are amazing to use in my home. #grovepartner

If you’ve been indulging and treating yourself, no matter how big or small, let me know how in the comments below!

If I was as prepared for the week as I was for thi

If I was as prepared for the week as I was for this photo shoot, I might actually be calm right now, instead of running around like a chicken with my head cut off 🤯

You know how you have a long checklist of things to do, a long week ahead, and lofty deadlines to meet, so you prepare yourself as best you can? Yeah, I did the opposite. For the first time in a long time, I did absolutely nothing. I had a dinner/ girls night with my friends on Friday, had my daughter and bonus niece all day Saturday, and literally slept most of the day away on Sunday.

I realized I’ve been on go mode for months, never really allowing myself the time to just breathe. Well for the first time, I did just that. And it felt great (in the moment, because I’m lowkey regretting it now 😅) Check my stories for more details lol.

Anyway, I feel a little off my square starting my week ill-prepared, but it’s never too late to start. So I’m locking in all day to make up for my lack of productivity this weekend.

Do y’all have those moments when you have so much to do and yet do absolutely nothing? How do you recover cuz I’m not used to this 🥴

Happy Monday, y’all 🖤

It’s a wife 💍

For everyone that wants Sanai’s reaction to momm

For everyone that wants Sanai’s reaction to mommy and daddy getting married. Here it is 😂 Just kidding! Lol

She might be more excited than I am. She kisses my ring and tells daddy “good job” about 5 times a day lol. Ironically enough, the week of the proposal, she kept saying “mommy you’re gonna get married and have a baby” 😳 No clue where she got that from and Richard swears he never mentioned it in front of her. Either she’s psychic or I need to officially ban her from YouTube Kids because how did she even know that?!

She was right on the marriage part- but we’re gonna hold off on the baby because what I will NOT be is a pregnant bride 🙅🏽‍♀️👰🏾 y’all know it’s the bourbon for me 😂

Yes, I’m still on cloud 9.
Yes, I look at my ring 1,652,928 times a day.
Yes, I’m gonna husband y’all to death.

Sn, this was the picture I had planned for Valentine’s Day. Clearly no match for my proposal video, but it’s still so damn cute, right?

Oh, and thank you all SO SO much for all of the love, support, and well wishes. My heart is so full 🖤

Me on the phone trying to pull together some last minute Valentine’s Day plans because Richard owes me nothing until at least my birthday 😭😂

Wanna see my reaction to the most perfect proposal

Wanna see my reaction to the most perfect proposal ever? ⁣
⁣
Y’all. 𝗪𝐀𝐓𝐄𝐑𝗪𝐎𝐑𝐊𝐒. But before you swipe- read this:⁣
⁣
Funny story: When I was younger, I would cry whenever my feelings were hurt. If my daddy screamed at me, I would cry. So much so, that my daddy used to always say “𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥, 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘫𝘶𝘴𝘵 𝘢 𝘣𝘪𝘨 𝘣𝘢𝘨 𝘰𝘧 𝘥𝘢𝘮𝘯 𝘸𝘢𝘵𝘦𝘳!” 😭😂 he scarred me lol. ⁣
⁣
So, as I got older- I turned into a G 😎 I tried to never cry because I foolishly thought it was a sign of weakness. If anything was wrong, I would cry on the inside and keep a straight face on the outside. ⁣
⁣
Since being with Richard, he’s softened my tough girl exterior and made me feel comfortable being vulnerable. And that’s the kind of security I never knew I needed. ⁣
⁣
I still don’t cry often, but when I do... I CRY. ⁣
⁣
Listen, 𝐈 𝐔𝐆𝐋𝐘 𝐂𝐑𝐈𝐄𝐃 from the time we walked up until the time I put on my ring. I saw those diamonds dancing and then I cried some more. Thank you @mrchrisdajeweler. Okay, now swipe to see for yourself. ⁣
⁣
Oh, and for those asking about the video.. you can go ahead and get ready to cry, too. Trust me, you’ll see 👀⁣ @alexanderaperture is stuck with me forever!
⁣
Lastly, if you’re tired of me posting about the proposal, please kindly unfollow me now lol.

When I say my future husband left NO detail unturn

When I say my future husband left NO detail unturned and spared NO expense... I mean it! Things he did: THAT! 🙌🏾🖤💍

I honestly am still processing how the hell he pulled this off. He’s not a huge planner, and I’m OCD and nosey as hell, so I’m still shook 😩 I literally cannot stop crying from how absolutely perfect it was. I mean legit... the best night of my life. @gracesingthecity girl I don’t deserve you. Friends like you are literally such a gift from God. @miked.shotme and @alexanderaperture I love y’all forever for making this night so special. Each of you played such a pivotal role in this night and there is no amount of money that can pay for the value you brought. To my friends, yall know I love yall for life. I’m so grateful for all of the love, support, and well wishes. I can never pay you all back for how y’all made me feel. Imagine praying for something and watching it manifest right before your eyes. Damn... It feels good to be God’s favorite. 🖤
