“We actually both proposed! Kristy proposed in August at Fairy Creek Falls in Fernie, BC. We hiked to the beautiful waterfall and spent some time taking pictures there. I had the ring in my backpack and sneakily pulled it out and stuck the box inside the band of my sports bra on the side of my body. Kayla asked to take a picture together. After the picture, she looked at it and told me to tuck my arm in as it looked funny. Little did she know I couldn’t tuck my arm in as it kept hitting the ring box. I moved the box around to my back and she fixed the camera. She walked out onto a rock that was close to the falls. I stood behind her and when she turned around, I pulled out the ring, told her how she is the love of my life and I can’t imagine my days without her and proposed. It was quiet at the popular spot at the time, and we shared an intimate moment together after Kayla said yes! Kayla proposed two months later in October! Kristy was away coaching at a high school cross country running championship and wasn’t going to get home until after 8pm. I kept texting her to see how close she was. Kristy thought it was because I was going to order supper in for when she got home. She walked through the back door into our backyard when I met her with a magical outdoor picnic with lights, pillows and cozy blankets, all her favorites on a charcuterie board, and warm clothes so we could lay under the stary sky together. I walked to her as she walked down the walkway and we hugged while I told her I couldn’t imagine spending my life with anyone else. I proposed, she said yes, and we enjoyed the most beautiful evening picnic together. She is a hard person to surprise and this proposal totally surprised her!”
