The Proposal...

5 months into dating both Kjell and I knew we wanted to get married. We went to Vegas over Valentines day weekend with my cheer squad. We stayed in a hotel with one of my best friends and her fiance Kirsten and Logan. We had the best weekend together it was so fun! After that it was all down hill!

I kept hinting to Kjell that I wanted to go ring shopping with him but he was determined to do it on his own. Well he didn't get his way, finally one day we went and found my ring now I just had to wait till he popped the question...

I waited 2 months (at least i didnt wait as long as Kirst... haha) It was Kjell's first trip to Lake Powell with me and my family. He had this idea he got from my grandparents, who take self portrats of themselves by setting up a tripod and using a remote to take the picture for them. He had mentioned to me that he wanted to do that at sunset one night so we got on one of the waverunners, and packed away his expensive camera and my ring inside the front compartment. I could tell how nervous he was about this little trip of ours, but I didn't put two and two together until I was standing there on the beach with a camera pointed at me the sun setting behind me and my cute boyfriend. As he got on one knee I couldn't contain how excited I was. He asked me if I would marry him and I don't think I even said yes I just took the ring slid it on my finger and leaned down and kissed him. It was perfect :)
