Anxiously Engaged

The Best Night

                   Ever!!!
       
         



    A story. To fancify your life. So after Savanna and I had been dating for about three months, we started talking about getting married. After finding the perfect ring, I set about finding the perfect spot to pop the question.
        Luckily my mom and sister Tosha jumped on board and helped me to find a ridiculously romantic backdrop for our evening. Savanna and I were living at home in between school semesters and we were only able to see each other every once in a while.
      After Tosha threw out the great idea of doing penny wishes at a fountain I decided it would be a great idea and we set out to find us a fountain.
      I don't know how many people in Pocatello know about this Simplot fountain. But it was really hard to find online, it was also the perfect location!

























After figuring out where I was going to propose, I started sifting through the ideas of how to do it.
Here's what I came up with.
Savanna and I went to the YSA activity at Lava to float the river, obviously upon returning we would want to shower. Sooo, I wrote her a letter, slid it under her door and I booked it to Pocatello. I directed her on the note to open a secret file on my laptop. This special file contained several documents, each unlocked by some remembrance from our time together. After she finished this homemade puzzle, she was given directions to the Simplot fountain.
      Of course she got lost.
I had arrived with Tyler in our car so that he could drive it home after she arrived. We were worried for a long time because one, she wasn't showing up, and there were people playing in the fountain. Thankfully it all worked out and she showed up about the same time the people got done breaking the law.
     So I craftily pulled out the ring box (it had two), and she thought I was going to just propose right there! But no. It was filled with pennies that each had a question on it, and as soon as we answered the question we got to make a wish with the penny. We walked around and around the fountain doing the questions, and I made it work out so that on the last question (her turn) we ended up right on the little platform in front of the fountain.

Anyway, it worked out. She said yes, and then we went and ate Oreos with milk at a nearby park!
