One of the reasons I have been to silent here at StandOutBlogger lately is because I have been spending quite a lot of time with Fiona. Which is why I am excited to announce that this afternoon I took her down to the local park near where I live which has been a place where we have been so many times and has so many memories.
Standing on the pier I gave her a copy of a novel that we both love with special parts highlighted and additional post-it notes with added thoughts – explaining how I felt.
I then proceeded to drop to my knee while asking for her hand in marriage.
She said yes, and has not stopped bouncing and smiling since!
I am so excited, and just wanted to share this amazing moment with you all!
To make the day even better I received a Sumo Beanbag at my doorstep today (thankyou Andrew) which will be our very first piece of furniture when we get married. It’s about 5 foot square and black and I love it! Over the next couple of days I will be testing it and taking pictures and writing a review of it within the next couple of days.
Congrats my friend, I wish you the best!
Congratulations dude, I’m sure you’re both very happy :)
