My Engagement Story

So many people have been wondering just when I would get engaged. This past week, Titus asked me to marry him. With tears in my eyes I said, "Of Course!" Here's how it happened...

Every year my sister and her husband and three girls come out for a week in CO. This year, it fell right after the big family reunion and Titus had his two kids out here as well. His two kids and my three nieces all hit it off great and were fast friends. On Monday Titus took my niece Aimee, and his daughter Madi (both age 10) to the mall to pick up my ring. That's when the planning started.

On Thursday we had our traditional day in the mountains. We went to the Alluvial Fan in RMNP like usual. Titus asked my mom if she could watch the kids while we went for a walk. We climbed up some rocks until we reached a large rock right next to the water fall. I looked down and saw my dad with the video camera. Titus tried to distract me by kissing me. It worked! When I looked back down this i what I saw:

Each of the five kids holding up a sign reading: Sarah Will You Marry Me?

I started crying. Titus got on one knee, took the ring box out of his pocket and asked me to marry him. My response was "Of Course!"

It was the most perfect proposal I could have imagined. Private and yet involving his kids and my family. I only wish my brother could have been there to celebrate with us!

We will be celebrating our the beginning of our marriage surrounded by our immediately family in a private wedding in September.

Thanks to all of you for your love and support!!!
