Welcome to our Forever

It was a rainy Saturday. AJ and I were celebrating three years as a couple. I insisted on going apple picking. Even though the forecast called for rain, I wanted to get those darn honeycrisps. So we set out to the orchard. It was great! It had stopped raining and we had the orchard to ourselves. We were directed to the honeycrisp section and started picking. As we finished stuffing our bags, it started to rain again, so we decided to head out of the orchard. AJ thought it was a great time to ask an orchard employee if she could take a picture of us with our prized apples. She agreed and took a few different shots. AJ said, “Those look great, but can we take a different angle?” My response was “Why, do I look fat?” I agreed to a few more photos. As I was posing, he tapped me on the arm. I looked and saw he was down on one knee. “Will you Marry me?” he said. Without hesitation, I said yes and started to cry. I was shocked and happy, simultaneously. It was the greatest feeling of my life.
