Just imagine. 

It’s been a long week. Your second graders were even more rambunctious than normal, and your boyfriend has been acting weird. You think you’ll get home to an empty house, prop up your feet, and pour a glass of wine before you go out to eat with your sister. You know, just a typical Friday afternoon.

Except….that’s not what’s going to happen at all. In fact, your boyfriend has something else planned altogether, and you haven’t the slightest inkling as to what’s in store… which may or may not involve a surprise home proposal at your house in Omaha! 

The Proposal
Alex contacted me a few weeks ago, already having a plan in place as to exactly how he would ask the love of his life to marry him. The plan was that he would sneak over to her house during the day and wait for Kinsey’s arrival after she got home from work. 

As we waited for Kinsey’s arrival, Alex and I got to talking quite a bit. We’d chat for a while and then completely freeze in fear that Kinsey somehow managed to creep inside the garage without us knowing. When we finally heard the garage door open, we got into position and waited. Kinsey entered the house, let her dog, Jamie, out, who instantly ran to where I was hiding upstairs (thanks, pup!), and within a split second after seeing that the foot stool was slightly out of place, Alex made his presence known to the love of his life. 

As soon as Kinsey was within an arm’s reach, Alex wrapped her into a huge hug and surprised the heck out of her as he got down on one knee. In absolute shock and shaking uncontrollably, she said “YES” to the start of their forever! 

To the Couple
Alex and Kinsey, I am SO excited for your upcoming wedding! I knew as soon as you whipped out those FRIENDS wine glasses, we instantly spoke the same language. You two have the cutest connection I’ve ever seen, and it was an absolute joy for me to be included in such a momentous occasion in your guys’ lives. I hope you enjoyed your night celebrating with your friends and family! Just make sure to truly relish this time of joyful anticipation; your July wedding will be here before you know it!

Congratulations!! I’m so glad we made this surprise home proposal one to remember!
