our proposal

Thank you for stopping by to check out our website! We hope you find it helpful but if you have any questions please don’t hesitate to ask. Below is a quick highlighted version of our engagement day! Enjoy! - It was Mother's Day, 2018 & Mike assured me it would be the best Mother's Day yet! -We were going boating with my family to spend the day on the water. -Mike was a little 'tired' from the bachelor party he attended the night before. -I couldn't figure out why he was a little moody on the way to the boat ramp? It couldn't have been because: ~Emma & I threw him off being in the garage when he got home & he had to hide the ring, write in the card he got me, & act as if everything was normal. ~Jack, my step-dad, locked his keys in his car an hour away & wouldn't make it to the dock. ~My mom & sister now had to redirect plans to get to the dock. ~The 5 cars in front of us seemed to have never put a boat in the water. ~Or because unbeknownst to me he was about to be sick from nerves before proposing! -We left without Jack & decided we would go back to get him when he arrived. -We anchored at one of our favorite spots & my mom, sister & Emma got in the water. -Mike started asking me if I was sure I was up for what the future would hold for us & I told him 'yes', as I had done MANY times before. -I looked away to watch them swimming & then heard, "Well, if you are sure..." followed by, "IT'S HAPPENING! IT'S HAPPENING!" & water splashing as the 3 of them raced to get on the boat. -Mike proposed & it was by far the easiest 'yes' I will ever give with by far the most beautiful ring I have ever seen. -Now we both felt like we might be sick from nerves. -It started to rain & we made our way to the dock, where Jack arrived just in time to get soaked & help Mike pull the boat in. -We made our way back home & the rest of the night my eyes were glued to my ring & my mind was at ease thinking about the life we would have together! -The End.

For all the days along the way
