Dalin asked me! We were in Provo Canyon and he did exactly what I had wanted; kept it sweet and private. I have known that we are getting married for a while now...but it was surreal when he got down on one knee and asked me. (It made me so happy that he did that by the way! I had almost forgotten that was a tradition.) As he was making his little speech before proposing, I thought, "Wow, this is it. This is real! This is the one time this will happen to me." It went by really fast in my mind.
After climbing down from our position, we called and told our moms right away, then walked back to the main park to grab our lunches and eat overlooking the waterfall that was nearby. I felt so happy! Honestly, it didn't feel all that different between us since I had known we were getting married, but it did feel nice for it to be official. And when I say nice I mean spectacular. This was especially because I did not know what to call Dalin beforehand! I hate saying "boyfriend"-- it sounds far too temporary. But now I can say fiance and not feel silly!
It was really a wonderful day overall. We saw three snakes and Dalin carved an arrowhead (the real way ;) which I am holding on to for display in our future home. We had a good conversation and I truly enjoyed our long walk. Dalin did just what I had requested. He is very sincere. I am so very lucky that he is mine!!!
