What a year it’s been for Braves star Dansby Swanson.

Only   a few shorts weeks after winning a World Series championship, Atlanta Braves star shortstop Dansby Swanson got down on one knee to propose to USWNT player Mallory Pugh. The proposal took place last week and juding by the post, it came as a complete surprise to Pugh.

Following the proposal, the two appeared to take a vacation.

See Swanson’s proposal  below:

Nice little getaway for the newly engaged couple:

What a way to finish the year.

First a World Series then an engagement.

Follow that with a vacation and you have the perfect trifecta.
