I blackmailed him… not really but I think he realized he wasn’t gonna get rid of me so he chose the easy path. Since our families are very sentimental, I thought professional pictures of us would make great Christmas gifts. I scheduled a couples session for the 13th of December and mentioned it to him, since we all know men just shower and show up to these things anyway. I proceeded to schedule all the appointments us women do before important events but Cody INSISTED I get my nails done too, he even paid for them. This should’ve tipped me off but he’s a sweetheart anyway so I thought nothing of it… Flash forward to the 13th, I’m all stressed about being on time and having our outfits ready to go while he’s cool as a cucumber. We started taking our pictures and once we had gotten enough in one outfit I suggested we change. We head back to the truck to do just that, and he’s all flustered about getting concert tickets for that night. His mind is on that while I swap boots, or so I thought. We finished up photos and when our photographer asks if we had anymore poses in mind, he says “Well I have one, are you ready?” I was crying before he even got the ring out of his shirt pocket. I think my emotions sparked his too, because he couldn’t finish asking the question without getting choked up. Seeing the love in his eyes and learning the thought that went into this easily made it the best day of my life.
