Monday Memories: Engagement

A nice quick memory.. our engagement! On Friday, 26th June 2009, dearest Alfred let me have a sleep in (neither of us had work that day) and when I did eventually stir and come out to greet him, he decided he was going to make me some yummy delicious pancakes. This, so far, was not an abnormal morning in for us.. as Alfred is very loving often dotes on me (one of the many reasons as to why I love him so much!), and as I am such a poor cook, he does virtually all the cooking in our household.

So, back to the story! Whilst he was cooking the yummy pancakes, I went up to snuggle him from behind.. but as I started to hug him, he turned around and got down on one knee. He then proceeded to present me with a beautiful set of diamond earrings and asked me if I would do him the honour of marrying him. To be perfectly honest, I was so shocked at the timing (I had known it was coming, but didn't know where or when.. had figured he'd put it on the back burner) that it took me a while before actually said the word "yes", even though I'd been hugging him and what not.. it's the words that sealed the deal!

A couple of days later I went shopping and found my dream ring, I went home to wake Alfred and returned back to the shop, he loved as well so we bought it!

We then held our engagement party at our home one month later with a sexual cocktail theme. In other words, cocktail attire, sex themed games, all the cocktails were sex themed and some wii fun!




In September 2009, we had our photo shoot at our photographers home. They have a beautiful large property out at Eudlo. Photos below:
