minted diaries: 5/26/13 ( Introducing The Future Mr. & Mrs. A!!!)

Hello everyone! We are officially home from our vacation to Florida. It was simply amazing. It really felt like a true vacation. But more on that later your ready for the juicy news right?

First off do you know how long I have waited to write this post? The tittle the words I am going to write.. these thoughts have been swirling through my head all this week. I am pleased to announce that..

On May 20th 2013 In Tampa, Florida........ WE GOT ENGAGED!

The Future Mr & Mrs. A!!!!!!

I decided to wait a week to post for the sake of Us announcing the wonderful news to close family & friends first & also taking the time to enjoy this wonderful time to ourselves & enjoy our vacation.

I knew this season was coming... I have been patiently waiting on it. I always admired my friends who entered the amazing seasons of Engagement, Marriage & Motherhood. When I was younger and all these years I dreamed and thought of the moment where the special guy would get down on his knee and ask me to be his wife. I always knew it would happen & at times it was hard to wait. Yet I just prayed and did my best to be patient and guess what? My beautiful season has arrived and it couldn't have come at a better time, it was the perfect time...

The time has come for me to become a Bride, who will then become a Wife to a truly amazing Man, I tear up as I write this because this man really has made my dreams come true. I have many and he is working on All of them. God has truly blessed me tremendously with Him & I see Gods love for me in this man everyday.

I will (Officially) be the Woman in charge of my own home & of my family. His helpmeet & the mother of his children that carry on his name. I will change my name starting with a V to a name starting with a A. I used to wish my name had an A when I was school when it came to going by the alphabet.. ( now look). To be a man's Wife is one of the greatest honors us Women have besides a Mother. God made it clear that its our season now..
