I just love weekends. Last night Daniel and I went to one of our favorite spots, The 19th Hole, and had a great time. We stayed a little too long and I indulged in a couple too many Miller Lites, but it was fun all the same. We were supposed to go cut down our Christmas tree today, but we decided to go tomorrow instead. It has turned into a really great tradition for us. 2 years ago when we went to cut down our tree, Daniel proposed. That is still one of my most favorite moments. I had no idea that he was proposing on this day. I had a fleeting thought on our way up the mountain, but I dismissed it immediately. We were trying to get a good holiday picture when the following picture was taken. My camera was on the hood of Daniel's truck. The first 5 pictures didn't turn out so good, but this one is perfect. I hit the timer button and went running out to stand by Daniel and when I got there, he crouched down. I turned to him and said, "what are you doing?" and then I realized that he was down on one knee. He asked if I'd marry him and I said, "of course I'll marry you!" and I leaned down to kiss him. That's right when the camera clicked. I didn't think to look at it right away, but as we were driving down the mountain I looked and realized that we got a perfect shot. Absolutely perfect.
Last year we took my parents with us and had some bad luck. We got stuck. We laughed, after we knew we could get out!
Mom and Dad last year...
Now I'm anxious to get our tree tomorrow and see what kind of pictures we get. I'm hoping this will continue to be a great holiday tradition for our family.
