engaged...

We had a big snow storm this past weekend (and by big, I mean 2 inches)…so everything is beautiful and white. Luke, Payton and I went to Lake Boren (park near my old apartment Luke and I used to run in) so I could do a photoshoot of a family of 7 (that’s a whole other story-5 kids in the snow!)
So Luke wanted to go down to the dock that sits on the lake and take some pictures. He gave Payton the camera and started walking down to the end of the dock. Payton said he had to throw something away, so headed back up the hill. I followed Luke down to the end. As we approached the end of the dock, there written in the snow was “joy”. We stood, looking at the water and taking in the beauty. He turned me around, got down on one knee (in the snow!) and said, “I’ve been waiting a long time to do this…would you make me the happiest man in the world…and marry me?” Holding back frozen tears, I said yes. He put a ring on my finger while Payton took pictures from the bushes. They had it planned the whole time. It was completely perfect.
We don’t have a date yet, but it will most likely be sometime next year. The ring is beautiful-the diamond in a “presentation” (temporary) setting for now. We’re going to design one together.







An aspiring photographer-I'm training him well! Although the proposal photo was a "re-enactment", it turned out perfect...


I hope you all have a wonderful holidays and very merry christmas!
with love..
