Man Carves Marriage Proposal in Cornfield

NAPOLEON, Ohio - Corey Cook didn't heed warnings from his girlfriend not to do anything corny if he proposed to her. In fact, he did just the opposite.
Cook paid a northwest Ohio farmer to carve the words, "Michelle, will you marry me?" into his cornfield. A heart surrounded the message, which covered about seven acres.
It was large enough for Michelle See to spot it from a small plane the couple took from Columbus to a family cabin in northeast Indiana.
She laughed after she said yes.
"She just started giggling like a little girl on Christmas morning," said Cook, who gave her a ring in the air above his cornfield message.
Cook hired Brad Leaders to put the message in his family's cornfield.
Leaders drew the message on graph paper and used it as a guide to hand-pull corn plants to make the design in the field.
Each letter was about 5 feet wide.
"We hoped it looked right," Leaders said. "You don't know until you see it from the air."
