It looks as if Carrie Underwood received her Christmas gift a bit early! The country singer accepted the proposal of Mike Fisher.

“I’m happy to confirm that Carrie Underwood is engaged to Mike Fisher, and the couple couldn’t be happier,” her publicist stated.

Carrie Underwood, 29, and Mike Fisher, 26, started dating over a year ago after being set up by friends after her concert in Toronto.

Carrie recently put a tribute to Mike in the liner notes for her latest disc, Play On, writing, “You are the most amazing addition to my life. I thank God for you every day…xoxo Carrie.”

The Ottawa Sun said Mike Fisher confirmed the engagement news during a press conference Monday. He said he popped the question Sunday, but declined to offer any other details.

“It’s true,” he said. “We’re both obviously excited and very happy.”
