N-gag-ed
Tyler proposed today. It was the most wonderful, creative proposal I have ever seen. It started off as a normal Saturday filled with geocaching. We went to the first cache, which was very normal. Then we went to the second cache. At first, I couldn't find the container. (The hint was small tupperware container.) So, I was standing exactly where the coordinates were. Then Tyler said that it was only 20 feet accuracy, so maybe I should walk around a bit. (The coordinates were right where a big old anti-aircraft gun, so there was a bit of space where the cache could possibly be.) So I went around to the other side, and I found a tupperware container wrapped in camoflauge tape. I opened up the container, and it was filled with rose petals and a small black box. It took me about a half second to realize, "wait a minute....this isn't a cache!" At which point Tyler took the box from me, got down on one knee, and asked me to marry him! Of course I said yes. So I am now engaged to be Mrs. Tyler Alan Hines! (Wow....I really am getting old, to be becoming a MRS!) I am SO excited. And the ring is BEAUTIFUL! Everything was perfect. My future husband is so amazing and creative! Anyways, here are some pictures that Tyler took last night when he was getting things ready. =)

Tristan! How romantic and perfect! It sounds like Tyler really did a good job! Props to Tyler. I am so excited for you guys. You are going to love married life! Just reading your blog made me all tingling inside and remember being engaged. I think it was my favorite time because when you are engaged you are filled with such love and yearning to be with that one person forever and hope for the future (not to say you don't have hope after marriage, but the kind of hope you have after marriage changes... children, eternity, the temple, success, etc.) Anyways, I'm trying to say that I am so excited! And I really hope that you two will eventually move to Nevada so we can all play all the time. Welcome to the Family! Love, Christina
So I am now engaged to be Mrs. Tyler Alan Hines! (Wow....I really am getting old, to be becoming a MRS!)
