**BEFORE YOU GET EXCITED, NO I AM NOT PREGNANT** That reeeeeallllll awkward moment when we both thought I was pregnant because my tummy looked like it, I had Brett looking going “naaa you are 100% pregnant, that ain’t normal” then me looking being like “ahhh shit. It is quite round...... I haven’t been feeling the best” So we take the test and it may as well have said “not pregnant, just too much wiki wings” THANK GOODNESS. I have been eating so much cheeseburgers that we thought I was pregnant HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA fuck. We lost it laughing, MY GUNT HAD US FOOLED IM JUST EXTRA CHUB #NoBabyPratts #ThankGoodness #NowTimeForWine #nzinfluencer #nzinfluencers #nzblogger #blogger

Still falling asleep smiling. 😊 Here’s how my most favourite moment happened .. STORY TIME. He told a little white lie & said he had to go to invercargil to drop a car he had sold off, unbeknown to me, my sneaky mum was meeting Brett there & they went ring shopping together! While they were in the airport, a follower of mine saw mum & Brett & messaged me saying she saw them & wanted to say hi, I was like what... that’s not my mum silly that’s a client and she was like ohhhh ok. BUT IT WAS MY MUM!!!! Brett and mum were crapping themselves so Mum quickly posted an old photo of our home in chch & captioned it “cows fed. Lawns done. Housework done, Saturday’s” and I was like ohhhh lol lol silly me, she is home! SNEEKY SOD!! Then it came to Sunday. He just asked if I wanted to go on a picnic, pick up some KFC on the way HECK YES. I love KFC. And then he told me to look nice... which at the time I was like what a cheeky bugger I look mint all the time.. We pulled up to the most beautiful spot in front of the lake, old ed was cranking from someone’s car, and he was specific to which rock we sat on. I literally JUST sat down & he handed me a card and told me to read it (didn’t even get to start eating my KFC) the card read ‘how about this wicki ring’, he then dropped on one knee & asked me to marry him! I just started crying, obviously I said YES! Then.. he turned around & pulled the thumbs up to this couple who started cheering & I was like WHOS THAT, it was his friends who I hadn’t met, Brett had arranged them to take photos of the moment. It was absolutely perfect and my heart is so full!! I get to marry my soul mate 🙌🏼🧡💍, thank you all SO much for the insane amount of love we received from you all!! Any questions, holla at me!
