So I Gavin went and did it. I popped the question to my girl of two years, and she said yes. I knew she would because she made it very clear she wanted me to, but it was still fun.
I took Sondra out in the country for a photo session, and had the ring in my pocket. There are some photo’s I took below. Most are posed, but the first one is actually the moment I pulled out the ring. I set the timer, sat beside her, and pulled it out just as the camera fired. Notice the open mouthed look on her face. Pretty fun.
I’m excited, but also a little nervous. It’s a big step. Though I did take my own engagement photo’s, I don’t intend to take my own wedding photo’s. That would just not work very well lol.
Here’s the moment I gave it to her. Nope this is not a reenactment.
Congratulations! Those are some really special photos. I did the same thing a few years ago when I proposed to my wife, you can see them

Congratulations to both of you. I believe Jinny and I are probably a few that have seen this romance develop from just a square dancing partnership to a soon to be full blown “birth” of a family relationship. You are sincerely a one-of-a-kind couple and we are proud to know both of you.

Try this…. =/ not sure if it’ll work. You seem to have it working now, but I’m assuming floating is turned off right now.
Hi Gavin,
We knew you would do it some day. You picked a good one!! We are planning to be there for the wedding and will bring a salad.
