So, I have already told you about the way Mr Handy proposed… but I didn’t show you the pictures (so rude, I know!). That night was so amazing and such a whirlwind of emotions. Being with him for 4+ years and having just bought a house together, I was more then ready to be with him forever but our pockets were quite light at that time in our lives, so a ring was the last thing that I was thinking of. I remember sitting in the kitchen with his cousin when he asked Mr Handy the infamous questions: “So, when are you going to propose?” I remember looking at Mr Handy and seeing him get red in the face and say, “When you pay for it.” This was his same reply, as always. Little did I know, my precious was in the living room.

I also noticed that he had been drinking… and we don’t drink. Ever, really. He was drinking so much, I even had to tell him to relax because his mom was getting visibly upset. That should have been my second red flag, but again, it was the last thing on my mind.

Mr Handy watched as I opened my little box…

He slowly got on one knee and asked, “Will you marry me, beautiful?”

I cried and said, “Of course!”

Here I am admiring my new bling!!

Still in shock… (I know you LOVE my Christmas socks )

The happily engaged couple

It was the best Christmas of my life.

Ah, I love reminiscing about that night… it puts me right back on cloud 9 knowing that the man that I love and want to be with forever feels the same exact way as I do. It was pure bliss.

Does talking about your proposal give you the butterflies all over again too?
