Where was the proposal?

On the sidewalk outside of our home we bought last January! It was also the day we bought the house so it was an all around emotional day!

Ours took place in our dairy barn in front of my new calf. He said Parton (My new baby) had a present for me and I saw a bucket sitting in front of her and it didn't have anything in it besides a bag so I turned around to ask him what was going on and that is when he was down on one knee. We were in our chore clothes and it was like the cows knew something was going on as they were silent and the whole barn was quiet.

Wow, Anna! That is so sweet and sentimental! And what an adorable photo?!

Ours was in our apartment living room, I was in comfy clothes with my hair in a messy bun from work. But he just couldn't wait any longer after having the ring for 3 days. He got it Nov 1st proposed Nov 4th originally wanted to do it over Christmas which is at the end of December. He isn't good with secrets at all. The original proposal he wanted was to take me to the Christmas of Lights in a near by town and propose there. Which would have been so romantic but Im still happy anyways.

That is so sweet! I love an intimate proposal!

In a hotel room. We had a special date day where we went to the movies and then a fancy dress up dinner, he followed it up with a surprise stay-cation at the hotel with the even bigger surprise engagement in the room.

Wow, that sounds so intimate and memorable! Congratulations!

The weekend before Christmas is always super hectic for me, as I’m finishing all the baking and last minute gifts. Frank said 12/23 we were going away for the day to relax and unwind. He surprised me with a day trip to Salem, Mass, which has always been one of our favorite places. Everything was decorated so nicely for the holidays and towards the end of the night, we walked through the Commons and were serenaded by Christmas carolers and be got down on one knee.

Oh my goodness, how sweet! Thank you for sharing!

He proposed on a piece of land that my family owns, that we thought was going to be where we built our house, but because of family issues we didn’t.

My fiance made all of my Disney dreams come true by proposing at the firework show in front of Cinderella's Castle. I was like a little kid all day just loving Disney; it is my favorite place to go and I hadn't been in about 10 years. After he proposed, I found out that this was actually his fourth attempt to propose in 3 months! My dad carried the ring to 6 states and 2 countries! But I am glad the other times fell through because this was my dream ❤️

In our bedroom before heading out to Vday dinner. I knew he was going to propose but I swore it was going to be over dinner. So I was caught off guard just enough. We laughed a lot, I said are you sure a lot and then headed to dinner. Do I wish it was more special? Sometimes.. but we are not very flashy or spotlight people, so it was perfect for us.

Ours was in a secluded (well, as secluded as Chicago can be!) area near Butler Field (Think, "near the Bean") in downtown Chicago. He had a friend of his hiding behind some trees (sounds hilarious, I know) snapping pics of us with the Chicago skyline in the back. It wasn't really a sentimental location for us, but it was where two of my favorite teams held championship rallies

Reykjavik, Iceland! My most favorite place on the entire PLANET! It was an odd proposal because he was acting odd, and I was close to my period so we were walking back to the hotel from looking at the Sun voyager and I finally told him to just spill out what was bothering him and it happened to be in between two buildings and a park, that overlooked the water and mountains. Do I regret that? Yes. Would I change it though? Not at all.

At home !
