AS TOLD BY THE BRIDE

OUR FRIEND KYLEE messaged me during bend was the rest of my life… Christmas break and asked me if I wanted to As Kylee and I came around the bend in go snowshoeing up at Causey Reservoir. I’m the trail I saw balloons and lights and rose always down for an outdoor adventure so we petals on the ground. When I saw it the first made the plan. I ended up having to raincheck thing I said to myself was “that is adorable!!” the plans because I had guitar lessons that Chewy took off running towards Colton but got rescheduled to our previously planned it still took me a second to register that it day. So we planned for the next week on was Colton standing there in the roses and December 21st at Snowbasin. We had planned this was for me!! I was so surprised and on going around 11am but I figured Kylee blurted out “Really?!?!” He was supposed to would probably be late (sorry Kylee hahaha) be working. He worked every Saturday at so I made myself some macaroni and cheese Ogden Clinic and I was so sure in my mind while I waited. Kylee showed up in the middle that he was going to propose at his family’s of me making my noodles, and me, thinking cabin on Martin Luther King day. Then I we weren’t in a hurry for anything, just moseynoticed Cotlon’s sister, Gina, recording on the ed along making my food and gathering my other side of the trial. I’m sure I looked like a gear. Haha. complete dufus in my attempt Eventually, we got to Snowbasin around noon and got our gear on. My dog, Chewy, was with us and I had just got a new phone. If anybody knows me, they know that I am obsessed I HONESTLY CAN'T REMEMBER ALL OF IT BECAUSE I WAS SO GIDDY. haha- I’m not the most agile and coordinated person. I was shaking so bad by the time I got to him. He invited me to stand in the rose petal heart. He then gave with my dogs; so naturally, me the cutest spiel that I I wanted to try out the new honestly can’t remember all of camera/settings on my dog. So we started it because I was so giddy. He dropped down onto the trail and found a place where I on one knee and said “Melanie, will you marry thought it would be good to test out my me”. I think I ended up screaming “YES!!” camera. So I’m there turning our snowshoeing multiple times haha. adventure into a photoshoot, when unaware to me, Colton was around the bend in the trail After I gained my composure and we looking at me through the trees wondering celebrated our engagement for a few minutes, what the heck I was doing and what was Colton then said, “I have another important taking us so long! Hahaha. After getting ‘the question for you…. Can I go deer hunting perfect shot’ I got up and we continued down tonight?” the trail. Little did I know that around the to get to him in snowshoes,
