We were going back down to Cape Girardeau for the weekend to visit some friends from college. James was all jittery the whole ride down and would freak out any time Sarah would reach for his phone to change the song or check one of his messages for him. Once at Cape, James suggested that we all go take a walk by the Mississippi River. A few minutes in, our friend Jack called Sarah over to give her another hug, since he hadn't seen her in so long. Then he told her to turn around. James was kneeling, and asked Sarah to marry him. Of course, Sarah started crying and immediately said yes. As James tells it, his plan was to take Sarah to the overlook where he first told her that he loved her at sunrise the next day to pop the question, but he got too excited and couldn't wait! Either way, it was perfect!
