I thought this was such a moving story… and so REAL, which I appreciate. The big elaborate thing isn’t for me, so I loved your intimate proposal. And sweet photos!

Oh! Thanks so much for that link. I am tearing up here at work. I think it’s so funny, I had the same experience at my proposal, like someone had turned the sound off. All I remember was a rushing sound in my head. Best of luck to you both!
