To all who is reading this. I met my husband in school and we were definitely high school sweethearts. I call us Tarzan and Jane, because we are definitely the 2 bush veld lovers, and we kind of look like Tarzan and Jane 2. I have been dating him for 6 years before he finally asked the greatest question of all time. He woke me up on the 24th of December 2015, 3 o'clock in the morning!!!! We raced towards God's Window as he wanted to catch the sunrise that morning. When we finally got to the gates the security guard did not want to let us in as the gates were not open yet. As I know my husband he got us in some how. He raced up the stairs as he wanted to find the perfect spot, i was of course taking my time having no idea whats really going on because i was still very much asleep (not a very good morning person). When i got to him he had already set up the go pro and we took a few pictures and just stood there being amazed by the wonderful Nature and Sounds that God has created. As soon as the sun peeked over the horizon he went down on his one knee and finally asked the question i could not wait to hear. I was so shocked and happy and emotional at the same time that no words came out so i grabbed him and just gave him the tightest longest hug i have ever given him. He still asked me after that hug....soooo is that a YES? i replied with laughter and said the best yes i ever could.
About a year and a half after that the big day has arrived. On the 6th of April 2017 we got married in the heart of the Bush veld at Kuthaba Bush veld Lodge in Neilstroom, Limpopo. The morning was so beautiful as i woke up realizing this is everything I have ever wanted. I couldn't wait to see him walking down that isle and i did expect him to cry when he first saw me, but i had never expected me to also start crying. It was a moment of butterflies and happiness and endless love that just flowed through my heart and i knew when i saw my Husband that he felt exactly the same.
The day i got married was the best day of my life so far and i just can't wait to make so much more memories and create more of the best days of our lives.
I truly love you Eldred Coetser and thank you for being my Tarzan, my hero, happiness, and confidence!!!! you are the best man I know and I Thank God for blessing me with someone like you!!!

To Vincent Maqueen and Nicole Macqueen
So the Honeymoon was absolutely the funnest vacation ever.
It started off a bit shaky as we never got what we booked for but the next day we walked into the doors of Archipelago lodge in Mozambique.
This place is really amazing with the greatest people you will ever meet, the most delicious food you will ever eat and the most adventures you will ever encounter.
I never knew where we were going for our honey moon and it was really kept a secret pretty good, until the day of our wedding and my Husband accidentally let it slip. The moment I found out I laughed with joy and I found it very funny that he could keep the secret for so long and then whoops he lets its slip just as we were about to enter the reception area.
It was truly amazing to be there in the heart of Mozambique, the sun the sea the whole island feeling was absolutely breathtaking.
It was very sad to leave there as we just wanted to stay there forever and never look back.
It was truly the most amazing and breath taking holiday you could ever imagine.
