Since the first date Joseph and Hayley had together they both talked about how the 4th of July was their favorite holiday !! So July 4,2023 started out as any other day they went to the parade in Smyrna with Hayley’s family. They had plans to go to lunch right after but Joseph said he had to go home first to put ice in the cooler. I should have picked up on something here because we had no ice at home to put in the cooler lol. Little did Hayley know Joseph went home to grab the ring he had been hiding. Then they went to Sambo’s for lunch. Hayley could tell something was a little off with Joseph because he was very quiet! Little did she know he was trying to find the right moment to pop the question! On our way back to the house Joseph was messaging someone frantically. Joseph took Hayley’s hand and lead her to the front of the house and got down on one knee and said “I first met you at a bar, I told you I loved you at Collins beach, and this is where I want to spend forever with you” of course as you all know Hayley said yes to forever with Joseph. Then as we were celebrating the person who he was texting frantically popped out from behind the tree. He had his friend Harrison come to the house to catch it all on video!
