Allie & Ivy
The FIRST Proposal
She showed up at my front door with the two cutest pups in September. She gave up a lot to take a gamble on us and it was worth it. So i knew i had to figure things out. She was worth fighting for, so i knew what i needed to do. She dreamed of a December proposal with snow and horse drawn carriages . . . but we were in Texas. So we did the next best thing . . . a surprise visit from best friends . . . and seeing Santa. That was more difficult than I had planned . . . Imagine 90 degree temps, sweaty children running and screaming and silly moms not making use of wine and getting angry at elves and Santa! But we finally got to see him and he agreed to help me with a little question I had. Mrs Clause didnt know what was coming. She says she said yes but i honestly dont remember that. She took the ring and we rode a horse drawn carriage as she waved her newly ringed finger around. The hallmark moment was when we went to leave and snow began to fall from the roof where we were standing.
For all the days along the way
