Inspiration

Song: Grace and Mercy by: Marvin Sapp

What an inspiration was it to look at the new President and First Lady of United States of America. What a proud day, and even the saddest heart had to smile yesterday. It was such an honor to witness history, I can’t wait to tell our children the day mommy and daddy watched an African American become the FIRST president. God is GOOD. I hope he inspires all to reach for the stars and seek all the education you can. The part that I take from his speech is to leave all CHILDISH things behind! I can not agree more. I am happy for the display of affection he shows for his wife and hope more see it is okay to love your wife or your husband.
I may go through many things but I must say I stand 100% behind my husband through thick and thin. I love him dearly and can not wait until you see the transformation and new beginnings we are able to share soon. Today I just want to say thank you for the support, from past and present associates and friends. May you all have a bless day and hope something inspires you to live right and seek better.

Until next time,
Queen Dallas (The First Lady of the Royal Douglas Family)

To My Emperor

Today was a day of reflections and memories. I have had the ultimate pleasure to be loved by such a caring man. As know people we have our moment when we just do not click but that is Leo’s. We are definitely a lion couple. I must say we may bump heads and about to bite each other head off, but I stand before the world, internet world and say I love this man. I love this man more than words can explain and if I have to loose it all, with materials things, friends, or family members that fight against our union. I will. Nothing and I mean absolutely nothing comes before my HUSBAND and OUR FAMILY. I have no tolerance for the rest and when the whole world gets the picture, the better off you will be. 2009 have started wonderful and we have had no PROBLEMS. I am so proud of that so let me repeat that again. WE HAVE NO PROBLEMS. I am back to feeling like we just met and fell in LOVE yesterday. I am so smitten by my King, the ruler of this palace; I quite do not know what do with myself. Love is hard but hell life is hard and it is a pleasure to know I have a BEST FRIEND above all others that have my back. It is amazing how mad we were at each other and when we were threaten, that all fell to the waist side and we ready to fight for US. Yes, US. I know at any day my husband will stand by me regardless if I am wrong or right and he is the only person that is allow to fuss and argue with me. This year is all about a REVOUTION. (*a sudden change*) We have dreams to chase and goals to reach and I thank god I don’t have to do this alone. I can do this with MY HUSBAND, MY BEST FRIEND, MY CLYDE, MY OTHER HALF OF THIS SOUL, and MY KING. As my cousin James say, “I am GROWN.” I am grown and I have grown to know that everyone do not celebrate happiness the same and everyone is not happy for you. This year I am taking to time to be HAPPY and CELEBRATE US. It has been a very long journey for us, from college to a long distance relationship for a couple years, to ending the relationship (several times), to starting all over, and to now MARRIED. We have been through it all and all I can say is GOD IS GOOD AND WATCH HIM WORK. We have a lot of things in the plans for this year. Stay tuned!

The Players Ball – Coming Soon!
Until next time,

2009 and rolling...

What a difference a day makes? It was 2008 on the last entry of this blog and now it is 2009 and with that said a lot of great things are int he works. I am so excited but I dare share any details right now. (Insert a huge smile) I can tell you this. The reason we haven’t updated this blog is because in August of this year, we are planning “The Players Ball”. All details will be announced once everything is planned. We are too excited. I can say it feels so good to be working together on something again. Since the wedding was huge hit, I feel this new event will be a huge blast as well. So keep praying for us and keep us in your prayers. I want to thank you all for the support new, old and past friends.

Until next time,
Queen Dallas, First Lady of the Douglas Royal Family

Reflective thoughts of 2008

For the past two days I have been wondering how I was going to start my blog, I been so excited I haven’t had time to figure out how I was going to start it. As I enter one of my final blogs for 2008. I must take the time out and say thank you Jesus. God is good. (All the time). I am so enjoying my new career and love my co-workers, it is so fun to sit back and have intelligent conversation. Today we went out to eat as a business lunch and I had a good time and enjoyed the warm response. We went out to Spring Creek BBQ on the company and now I am a stuffed bird. As I get more accainted with my new job responsibility, I contacted my glam squad that consists of Tonia and Tiffany and we hit the mall. Can I say how exciting; I haven’t been shopping like that in a long time. I have the official grown and sexy gear now, so picture me rolling. I got the nails and fly hair to match. It felt so good to finally be able to treat myself and also to have fun with my girls. Tonia and Tiffany I really don’t know what I will do without you all. You two really are some true blue friends, through thick and thin, we have prevailed and I pray that you both have a wonderful NEW YEAR and like my husband say NEW BEGINNING. I never knew growing up can be so much fun. I use to always wonder how my life would be and I can truly say I never imagine this. If it was up to me, I would have been still in the music industry and on a wrong path. I have worked for a major radio station, Bad Boy, Rap a lot and Def Jam, and life for me has been a blast. I have lived a dream that none of my recent peers can imagine. I have work with the who’s who and then some and in the same breathe; I was shown that, the life I dreamed was not for me. It is funny how God had it all planned for you. I have truly done a 360 and have a testimony that no one could believe. I lived the life before I was 21 and most of my peers are trying to live something I been there and done that on. The crazy thing I would not change a thing in my past because it has definetly prepared me for today. The fact that I am a private person some of you really don’t know me at all; you only know the transitional me. LOL and I love it that way. People these days are so judgmental and use you past to suppress you or use you and for me I don’t have time for that. All I can focus on is my husband and my family; my whole family. It has been a long time since I have been so happy; you can see my heart melt through my smile and I can not stop smiling. I have been so looking forward to Christmas; it has been insane; my tree really speaks for itself. It is on overload status.
As we go into the New Year with new experiences, drives and goals always remain prayer-filled. I just wanted to share how I loved going to my in-laws this past weekend to drop off gifts. I had a wonderful time and did not want to come back. My mother and father in law is the best in-laws I can ever ask for. My father keeps me cracking up and my mother in is sweet and warm as a fresh baked apple pie. We enjoyed our whole trip and didn’t want to come back , as a matter of fact we didn’t come back until Monday morning at 3am, now how you doing. All I can say is keep reading because you never know what future things the royal family have coming up. Also due to me just being unique the Royal Family will endure a title change for the New Year, coming soon.

Be Blessed,
The one and only Royal Family, King TD and Queen Dallas, Princess Kam and Prince Jay

P.S. Merry Christmas from the Royal Family

Getting ready for the New Year and New Things.

So the holidays are near and the Douglas ROYAL Family is getting ready for the holidays and New Year. What a wonderful year, we have so much to be thankful for and it couldn’t have been possible with Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Terick and I were able to make our Royal Wedding dream come true and it is so refreshing to see a Bigger Dream unfolding before us. I must say it has been a long and tough road and by any means I do not want anyone to read my blogs and feel like it is a fairytale. Life is not a fairly tale and love is not a Cinderella story. It take work, love and communication, it is all about neutering the relationship. PERIOD. I am so thankful for my best friend Terick and extremely Happy on our First Christmas that we are about to spend together. I personally have matured in so many ways and also have had several life changes (thank God for my CAREER not JOB). I have learned that everyone is not the friend you think they are and have made some major changes in the circle line up. I am at the point in my life that childish things need to be left at the playground and if you are not on that level, your talk time is now limited (50 feet needed). My husband and I have truly discussed no tolerance on negativity or un-necessary drama and headache. We have our eye on a bigger prize. Especially our BIG ROYAL DREAM, which we are on the works of. No details will be said so don’t ask but maybe these pictures can be a hint.

Until Next Time,
The one and only “ROYAL QUEEN DALLAS”

Lessons Learned in November 2008

This thing we call project marriage. I must say it has definitely been a true work in progress I must say. Trying to get it all right and making sure it continues to work and still able to manage friendships especially the single friends. There is nothing wrong with having single friends while you are married but sometimes friends give married friends advice from a single prospective that is really not conclusive to a married person. Not saying that this is given intention but the single friend and family member have no idea the impact the advice does in that person household. We discover that past arguments after we got married came from a lot of single friends and family members in our business. No matter where the leak come from and let truth be told from both sides of the family and friends circle, it was out and causing conflict. Especially from folks we thought we could confine in. We made a pact to keep whatever in house and work it out together cause seeking outside help was definitely causes problems; HUGE PROBLEMS. Can I say things have been lovely seen the pact was made. No more issues. It also made us re-evaluate what is important and it is us communicating with us, and not “All of them”. Some lessons are felt more learned and guess what I learned on this one. Just wanted to share a lesson learned; hopefully others can learn on this lesson and not the hard way like we did.

Learning everyday,

Queen Dallas

The Royal Tree

So it is that time again this year when the family plays a lot in play. It is holiday time. We are so excited in the royal palace. So here is how the day went last week, I have been speaking of a Christmas tree since last year and Terick was like okay this year we getting one. Well a long thought process went into if we wanted a real tree or a fake tree. After days of debate on what kind of tree we wanted cause either of us didn’t know. A decision was made; in other words the king issues his ruling. Since the world knows I love themes, the Christmas theme is red and gold color theme. So Terick and I were in the store and he was like come on baby, lets go in the Christmas section. I was like a kid in a candy store; my eyes were bright and gleaming. My first Christmas tree with my husband. He was excited as I, as were browsing the selection and he trying to get me to down grade on the baller tree I had my eyes set on. I wanted this huge tree like we live in a house; a nice Douglas tree. As far as I can see it is the perfect tree for the perfect royal family. Terick and I decided on his cousin tree until we get a house. I was cool with that, just more motivation in my eyes. So the exciting part begin, picking out the decorations; as I am virtually drooling at the red and gold ornaments, I decided on a little of this and that; then Terick remind me of the $$$$$$, I begin to rest my nerves. As a proud kid walking out of the candy store, my husband remembers that I love candy canes on the tree and remind me to grab two boxes. Can I say my heart melt, he can be such a sweet heart. We made it home and instantly King Douglas began putting together the royal tree of 2008 and as the Queen; I finished it off. I am happy that we are so into the Christmas spirit and I truly have a lot to be thankful for this year. Words can not even explain my thankfulness.

Until next time,
The Royal Queen Dallas
