First comes love, then comes MARRAIGE!

I'm pretty sure everyone already knows this, but in case you haven't heard, Chris and I are officially engaged! Well, we've been planning on getting married since September, but he proposed on October 15. It was wonderful!!!! He took me to Island Park and we walked around and he showed me all the places he used to go as a kid growing up. As it got darker, we started to drive towards the peak of the highest mountian. I love star gazing, and from the top of that mountain you can see the Milky Way and on a clear night, the Northern lights too, so I was pretty excited. So, we're on our way up, and unfortunately we got stuck in the snow for about an hour trying to dig ourselves out!!! Needless to say, we decided not to go all the way to the peak, so we drove back down the mountain and found a little ranch to set up our little grill to roast hot dogs and marshmallows. Then, to my surprise he pulls out the Astronomy book he gave me on one of our first dates! He opens it to the page about my favorite constellation "cassiopea" (because it is shaped like a W) and to my even bigger surprise, there's a story written in it about how "Cassiopea," the most beautiful and lovely queen of the land met the great, and yet very normal "King Cepheus," and how they fell in love. He is so sweet!!

So now that you all know the story, I thought I would post some pictures of the ring he gave me!

So the official date is Dec 20 at 10:00 a.m. in the Logan Temple.....be there or be square! :D

Oh, and we took our engagement pictures, and the photographer posted them online if you want look at them. Her website is "jrandallportraits.com" and you click slideshows, and the password is "whitney"
