A is for Announcement

Happy Monday Budget Brides!!!   In this post I would like to take the time to announce my engagement. Yes, Mr, Budget asked me to marry him the day before Thanksgiving and of course I said yes. After five years and a beautiful son, I would love nothing better than to make it official so that we can become family by law.

All pictures in this post belong it The Budget Brides Handbook, please do not use them with out permission.  Announcing your engagement can be tricky in knowing who to tell first. So here is how I did it: * I text my brother a crazy guess what message and then followed it up with a picture of my ring. * I called my best friends and let them know the good news. *Since both of my parents are sickly and don't do well with phones I waited until I was in front of them to give them the news. * I tried to notify all the people that I could think of before I actually posted it on any social networks *About 2 or 3 days after the proposal, I decided to tell the world on social media. Boy Oh Boy was this a process. But now we are engaged and here comes the craziness. Hopefully, it won't be that bad. Remember to check in periodically as I start this new adventure to the altar on a $25k or less budget.
