How he Proposed: Blake wanted both families to be involved in the proposal. It was Christmas morning and I was completely surprised! We were opening presents at his parents house and his mom asked us to hold up our stockings for a picture in front of the tree. This is something we do every year so I wasn't thinking anything of it. Blake said he saw another present under the tree and by the time I turned around he was on one knee. After he gave his proposal I barely remember saying yes.
