14 Groundhog Days ago I asked my beautiful wife to marry me as we were parked by a dumpster behind UVU's blackbox theatre. I didn't have an official ring to give her yet, so I gave her my glow-n-the-dark CTR ring to wear as an engagement ring until we could go pick out something better. Surprisingly enough she didn't run screaming from the car. She said yes and 14 years ago TODAY we were married in the Mt. Timpanogos Temple. I can't describe just how amazing that day was. That was the beginning of the best 14 years of my life.We were recently able to get away for a few days out toward St. George, in the lovely town of Hurricane, Utah. And, actually, the town IS quite lovely. I plan to purchase a vacation home out there some day. One of the highlights of the trip was definitely walking through Zion National Park with my sweetheart and talking together as we enjoyed the amazing beauty there. Anytime I get to forget about everything else and just be with Katie, is beyond the best. I married the most amazing woman that will ever live anywhere. She has made the past 14 years the beginning of my happily ever after. She is my once upon a time and my happily ever after.
Hooray for 14 years of Purdiedom!!!
ReplyDeleteP.S. The lower picture looks photoshopped. If you really didn't go there, it's okay, you can tell me. I can keep your secret.
I love you, Jason!!! Thank you for marrying ME! I am all kinds of crazy and you love me and put up with me. I'm glad I accepted your glow-in-the-dark CTR ring and tied the eternal knot with you. <3<3<3
ReplyDeleteAnd, Collin, that photo DOES look Photoshopped, huh? But I promise we were really there!
Happy Anniversary you two. Such a great read of your engagement. I knew you deserved each other, I just didn't realize how much I love both of you!!!!
ReplyDeleteI think it will be a forever battle deciding just who got the best Barkdull. They're all pretty great, but...
