Our Wedding

Anyone who knows us, knows our story. Two friends, best friends, who refused to give up on one another. Time and distance made their mark on our history, but we've overcome it all. Through all of our personal ups and downs, we always turned to each other. Sixteen years later, we are still best friends. We continue to grow as individuals and as partners. We learn from each other every day, never forgetting who we are and what we mean to one another. It is such an amazing feeling to know that you are marrying your best friend. Through thick and thin, we are right where we are supposed to be, with the person we're meant to be with (and our little one along for the ride!) We want to thank everyone who is a part of our life, and those who have played an integral role in our relationship. Our wedding is to celebrate our love, but also to celebrate with those who have helped shape us. Cheers to a night we shall never forget!

Finally Saying I DO

New Years Eve, 2014As we lay in bed, we talk about the year behind us and the year ahead. We recognize how privileged we are to have one another- fourteen years and a child together can make you truly reflect. We haven't made that jump though, at least he hasn't. "What are you waiting for?" I always ask. Those who know Ricardo know that he is a man of will. He never halves anything. "Go hard or go home" is his motto. He has waited so long, too long in my opinion. He wants things to align just so, but life doesn't work that way. This is our talk. I tell him he has a year to propose. He knows I'm all talk. He knows how much I love him. He knows that we could never get married and that we would both still be committed to one another, blissfully happy. We know that trials can and will come, but we know the power we hold, the power to always see it through, with or without a marriage license. We're a team, and we always will be.New Years Eve, 2015It is one year later. He's been different. He's not staring at the mirror making sure his hair is perfect. He's staring at me tonight. He seems off. We had an argument earlier that day and now I feel our New Years is ruined. I tried holding his hand, he's sweaty and distant. I can see he's stuck in his head. I can't tell what he's thinking. My dad has everyone gather in a circle. It is five minutes 'til midnight. We are now all sharing what we enjoyed about 2015 and what we have to look forward to in 2016. My dad calls his name. Three minutes 'til midnight. He talks about our little family of three. How grateful he is for us. He is thankful for my family, how they have loved him as one of their own. He is thankful for how they have accepted him, and how he looks forward to being a part of that forever. His next three words are telling, I feel like I know what's coming next, but..really? No. Wait, he's reaching for my hand. He says my full name. He tells me how much I mean to him, how much he loves me. He calls me his best friend and he tells me that there is no one he would rather spend the rest of his life with. And then those four words come, the four words I had been waiting for, "Will you marry me?"

My little mermaid. My first best friend. This one here is the one that gets me through the good times and the bad. She keeps me sane and she keeps me grounded. She has a beautiful soul; she's smart, diligent, and kind. She's the yang to my yin. I love you sissy, thank you for helping make this journey lighter, memorable, and fun!

My life wouldn't be complete without this girl. My baby sister came into this world and made everything better. She was someone I took care of and looked out for and then she grew up and became this stunning woman who now looks out for me too. She is beautiful inside and out and I'd be so lost without her. Thanks for being a part of this journey with me baby girl :)

God granted me two sisters, and then He put a topping on my cake. White girl, you've been with me through some crazy times. I was never one for best friends because I sometimes felt I couldn't open up to people, but that's why God gave me you. You're the person I could always turn to, someone I could confide in with my darkest thoughts and my craziest schemes. You're my ride or die! I love you so much and I thank you for always being there for me, especially now. Thank you for being by my side as I stroll down this road. I love you!

I have the kindhearted one, the humanitarian, the confidant and then comes the life of the party! You have such an alluring and transparent soul. I admire your way of being - so open and unapologetic. You are confident in who you are and you'll never settle for anything less than what you deserve. I am so lucky to have found a friend in you. We'll be sisters by law but I think we made that choice for ourselves a long time ago. You complete this puzzle of women in my life, you bring a strength and resilience that no one else can. I love you so much Dulce Doe and I'm so thankful to have you as a sister :)
