The story is at the bottom! :)
Matt took me snowshoeing yesterday up provo canyon by Vivian Park, it was snowing pretty much all day which was fine, because it was seriously so beautiful up there! The hike up was sooooo HARD!! I felt so bad haha, I had to stop so many times to catch my breath.. at one point when we were almost to the point where we were supposed to be Matt turned around and asked me if I wanted to turn around! I laughed at him and said "Heck no!! We've come this far, might as well go the whole way!!"
Good thing I didn't want to turn around because what Matt had waiting for me at the top was AMAZING! Talk about romantic! So we get to this spot where this picnic table is all set up for a little picnic! I was so surprised... and confused! I kept asking Matt when the heck he did it! And then when I figured out that it was impossible that Matt could've done it I kept asking him WHO did it! But he wouldn't tell me! So anyway, we sit down and (p.s. it's still snowing..) we start eating these yummy sandwiches that Matt prepared for us. Then he pulls out this card for me. I open it up and there is a piece of paper inside.. but I read the card first! It was a Barbie card that said on the front "For a Special Girl, A Valentine Charm to wear!" Then on the inside there is a piece of yarn and this charm that you rip off the card to make a necklace and the inside read, "This pretty charm is just for you to sparkle up your day! It's coming with a lot of love and then this wish to say- Hope every hour the whole day long will be a happy one, Just filled with sweet surprises and some Valentine-y fun!" So then Matt made the necklace and tied it around my neck!
Then he had me read the piece of paper inside.. He was going to show me this really cute slide show that he made for me on the lap top, but it was just snowing to much he didn't want to get it too wet, so I watched it in the car on the way home. Anyway, the piece of paper had a little poem on it that read:
Valentine's Day Poem
Before we go, There's one more thing
I really need to say.
Barbie's a babe, and so are you
That's why I brought you here today.
It's up to you to figure it out
There's not a thing that I can do,
But give you a hint that'll get you started,
And leave the finding up to you.
So go over the river and into the woods
And under a sheltered tree.
You'll find a special Valentine Bag,
For you, from Barbie, and me.
Happy Valentine's Day!
I love you!
So then we start our way to the the little bridge to cross the river, we didn't put our snowshoes back on so we were literally waste deep in the snow. It was really funny. So as I'm searching for a sheltered tree.. I see two little birds hiding in the trees! Lexi and Brett had come up before us and set everything up and they took a video and pictures of the whole thing! They did a great job!!! So anyway, I make it to the tree and pick up the bag. Opened up the ring, and Matt got down on his knee and popped the question! I obviously said YES!! :) It was seriously the best proposal ever! Matt is AMAZING! I am so lucky.. and my ring is so pretty and I love it! :) Hope you enjoyed this novel haha!
