“5 years ago we went and got our first Christmas Tree 🎄together….at this same spot.. This year, I asked her if she’d like to get Christmas Trees 🎄 every year for the rest of our lives,” the singer wrote.

Jake added that a good friend came through to take priceless pics throughout the proposal and the couple had another special onlooker with them to commemorate the special occasion – his and Erica’s 1-year-old daughter!

“Our little Paris was there to witness the complete surprise. So much of a surprise, Erica didn’t have her nails done..(yes, I now know that’s big deal I guess 💅🏼),” he wrote.

Though Erica may not have been as prepared as she’d hoped, the bride-to-be couldn’t have looked more overjoyed to show off the gorgeous ring Jake gave her. In one shot, Erica held up to the camera a sparkling diamond that glowed almost as brightly as her and Jake’s megawatt smiles!

As for the post-engagement celebration, Jake teased that he and his new fiancée went all out to mark the start of the rest of their lives. The 39-year-old ended his Instagram slideshow with a peek at Erica digging into a Chick-fil-A bag.

“She was successful not getting Polynesian Sauce on that bling,” he joked.
