While we had discussed getting engaged, I was shocked by the timing of it! We had gone on a trip to Ireland the month before and I was sort of expecting it to happen then, but Peter had other plans. Instead of proposing at the Cliffs of Moher, Peter decided to surprise me and propose our very first night in our new house! We had nothing moved in yet and had decided to camp out on an air mattress to enjoy our new space together. Long behold, I come home from work and Peter has the place covered in rose petals and candles. I walk into our living room, and he gets down on one knee in front of the fireplace (also covered in rose petals and candles) and asked me right there! It was a magical, romantic, total surprise, and he even had champagne to toast with afterwards!
