If you want to present the most unique marriage proposal to your future fiancée on Christmas, call on the adorable little creature named Santa Mouse!
If you have never had the pleasure of knowing Santa Mouse, then follow me and I will introduce you to the cute little fellow. He will be delighted to make this momentous occasion treasured forever!

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • Book - Santa Mouse by Michael Brown
  • Cube of cheese fitting for a mouse
  • Engagement ring, elegantly wrapped
  1. Step 1
     
    "Santa Mouse" by Micael Brown

    If you have never read the book "Santa Mouse" by Michael Brown, you need to do this first. Get a copy of the book from the library or buy a copy to give to your fiancée on Christmas Eve. It will be a perfect Christmas gift she won't expect.

  2. Step 2

    Assuming you are spending some time together on Christmas Eve at home, strike up a conversation about family traditions you loved as a child. Embellish the truth a bit if necessary but Santa Mouse has to be one of the favorites.

  3. Step 3

    Cuddle up, nice and cozy, while you read the book "Santa Mouse" aloud together.

  4. Step 4

    Creatively convince her to leave a piece of cheese in a conspicuous place in the Christmas tree for Santa Mouse. Perhaps you want to relive those fond childhood memories?

  5. Step 5

    If you will not be together all night, wait until it is almost time to depart and as quiet as a mouse, switch the cheese for the engagement ring. Otherwise, wait and switch them later to be found on Christmas morning. You know... after Santa and Santa mouse have delivered the Christmas presents.

  6. Step 6

    At the appropriate time, lead her to the tree to see if Santa Mouse has eaten his cheese. (Have a camera ready to capture the moment!)

Tips & Warnings
  • Add a note in with the ring from Santa Mouse that says something like "(her name), (your name) would love to marry you. Will you marry him? signed Santa Mouse"
  • If there are children, include them in a new Santa Mouse tradition. (See resources below)
