Our engagement day was the coolest thing I could have ever asked for. We always went snowboarding every Thursday and this particular Thursday was not really different, other than none of our friends could go with us this day and that when Ryan came to pick me up he gave me a beautiful red rose. Still, I was completely clueless.
So we get to the mountain gear up and get in line. I remember two of the park employees cutting us in line and I was thinking, "that's weird, why do they need to cut us? There is no one in line!". So we are on the lift on the way up to the top of the mountain. About halfway up Ryan asks to pray for us. So we pray.
As we reach the top of the mountain I saw some people at the top holding a sign, but couldn't make out what it said. I was thinking that it was something saying "Welcome" and that the mountain was just really excited that it had snowed so much the week before. As our chair lift got closer to the top, I could see that about 20 people were at the top holding a sign that said, "Will you marry me?". I just sat there, and said to myself, "don't do anything stupid, it's for the girl behind you."
As I stood up and rode toward the sign, I could start to make out the people holding the sign were my friends. As I turned to look at Ryan, he had unzipped his jacket to reveal his white shirt and tie, and there were rose petals all over the ground. He pulled out the beautiful ring and asked, "Will you marry me?" and i'm pretty sure he said some other things. I just stood there staring at him until a group of park employees yelled out, "Is that a yes?" I was crying yes, and so happy!
All of our friends crowded around us and hugged and congratulated us, and then we spend the day snowboarding with everyone we loved. It was the best proposal in the whole world.
