Miss to Mrs.

 

This summer was one I will remember forever. 

Every year my boyfriend's family goes on a beach vacation around mid-July to Oak Island, NC. This year was like any other year; until Tuesday July 14th. We spend the week playing games, soaking up sun and eating homemade meals. It is such a nice break from the real world and it's my week to destress. 

Then Tuesday night rolls around. Anthony's sister, Lea, asked me if I wanted to go to dinner with her and her friend. Of course, I say yes, and we head to the town over for dinner. While we're at dinner, we decide we are going to go to the new pier to take pictures during sunset. This whole time I thought we were just having a fun girl's night, but to my surprise it was actually a life changing night for Anthony and me. 

We walk out under the pier for pictures and there is no sign of Anthony or his family. As we walk further towards the water, Anthony walks out from behind a pillar, under the pier. I was so surprised, but I instantly knew what was happening. I have been waiting for this moment all summer long. Next thing I know, he is down on his knee asking "will you marry me?" Of course, I said yes! Suddenly his family surrounds us. They were hidden with random groups of people throughout the beach. 

I will remember July 14, 2020 forever, but our wedding is on June 5, 2020 and I already know it will be my favorite day. I cannot wait until I am Mrs. McFadden and get to spend the rest of my life with my best friend.

Snapchat

I remember when I first downloaded Snapchat. I remember thinking "I have to look presentable every day now because people will actually see what I look like every day." For everyone that doesn't know, Snapchat is a social media app that started at just a way to communicate by sending pictures back and forth. It has now advanced into a form of social media. You can share stories, which are pictures or videos that everyone you are friends with on snapchat can see, and you can see different magazine type subscription stories. Now that I have had Snapchat for multiple years, I don't know what I would do without it. I snap my friends on a daily basis and it's basically the root of all my laugher. Now you can make snap groups, which means you can have multiple people in a group and you can send pictures to the group like normal group message, and I have so many with my friends. We send anything from drama we want to spill to TikToks in these groups and it is so much f...

Birdin' Around Town

One of my new favorite activities is Birding. I found Bird's in Atlanta, Georgia two years ago and every time I go to any city that has Birds, it is a necessity. You're probably asking what Birds are. Bird is a company that has placed motor scooters around cities to help with transportation and help with the carbon footprint. Bird has created a fun yet helpful way to get around the city. It is super easy to use as well. All you do is download the Bird app, add a credit or debit card, then you're set. When it's time to bird, you pull up the app and scan the bird you are wanting to use. Once you scan it, it will begin your ride and you can ride for as long as you want. The more you use the app, the cheaper your rides become. When you're done, you select end ride and take a picture of your scooter to prove you didn't wreck it. This concept is so smart and a great way to show how technology and social media is growing everyday. Who knew you would be able to driv...

Dream Job Became Reality

When you hear someone is a model what do you picture? A beautiful girl with flawless hair, skin, makeup? Maybe someone that's really tall and slender.  Yeah, I did too, well until I had the chance to model myself. I never in a million years would have imagined that I could have the opportunity to model for anyone at all. I am 5 feet, 5 inches tall, I weigh way more than a typical model and I have more visible muscle than most girls do, but this didn't prevent me from booking my first modeling job in 2016. I was so excited because I had traveled to shows with my mom to buy dresses for her bridal and formal store for a few years already and every time I wanted to model so bad but never thought I would get the chance. Like I said before, I did my first show in March 2016 and I have continued modeling since. I have modeled for two dress designers; Rachel Allan and House of Wu . With a job this like comes traveling, but I can't complain. I have traveled to cities like Chica...
