Bryan and I have been switching off who plans our Friday date night every week and it just happened to be his week. Thursday night Bryan told me that we were going to do a scavenget hunt for our date and his sister Annie was planning it because he couldn't think of anything else to do. He told me that he had no idea what she was planning to do or what the end result would be. He's never done anything like this before so I thought it was a little fishy and I kind of hoped that he might be proposing but I wasn't sure because he was playing it off so much.
He came over to my house at around 5:30 on Friday night to pick me up. He told me to text either his sister Annie or his sister-in-law Melinda to find out what we were doing. We had to send a picture of us together to get the scavenger hunt started. Here is picture #1! We were super excited to get this going. Haha!
The text we got back from Melinda was "since Bryan couldn't think of a fun date, we decided to take it upon ourselves ti give you guys a fun date night...answer this riddle to get the scavenger hunt started." The riddle was-- The man who invented it doesn't want it. The man who bought it doesn't need it. The man who needs it doesn't know it. What is it? We couldn't figure it out so we cheated and Google searched it. The answer is a coffin.
Clue #1-- I represent those that bleed green and gold. Find me and take a picture with me to get your next clue. I immediately knew it was Willie the Wolverine (UVU's mascot).We met at school in our philosophy class where we got put in the same group project and hit it off from there. :) We drove over to the school and found the wolverine statue. oh and Bryan sat in snow while we were taking the picture...freakin funny!
Clue #2-- To renew your energy you can find me at the golden arches. Order 2 5 pieces, a large fry and a drink. Don't eat too much, its not dinner like you think. Snap a picture with me and your food to get your next clue. This was just because Bryan was hungry. Baha!
Clue #3--We have a team in Utah but we are not as popular here like in the rest of the world. Find me and snap a pic. For our first date we went up to a Real Salt Lake soccer game. So we wandered over to Wal-mart in search of something that represented RSL. This is where I was starting to realize the connection between the things we were taking pictures of and our dating life.
Clue #5-- I am the ice cream of the future. Find me and take a picture! Dippin' Dots!!!One of the only places they sell them down here that we knew of is at Trafalga...a mini golf/ arcade place that we go mini golfing at all the time. It's our favorite date place.
Clue #7-- This is the place where many "books have been read". Where am I? When we were first dating we would go to the park behind his house at night and read scriptures and kiss. One night when we went to the park his family was over and we told them we were going to read at the park and ever since then it's been an inside joke with the family that when we were making out they would call it "reading books". The whole time while we were driving to the park Bryan was playing it off and saying things like, I wonder what they are having us do at the park, I'm kinda nervous they are gonna scare us or something.... Maybe they will have dinner set up for us there. and lots of other things to make it seem like he had no idea what was going on. We got to the park and this is what was waiting for us when we got there.
Bryan got down on one knee and asked me to marry him. I totally thought I was gonna be the girl to cry when he asked me to marry him but no... I was so excited that I started jumping up and down and squeeling and freaking out! haha! Then I finally said yes. :) I am so happy I get to marry my best friend in the whole world! He is an absolutely amazing man and I can't wait to start our eternal family together. Oh and here's some pictures of the ring and us all engaged and everything! :) We're getting married May 26th, 2012 in the Draper Temple! :) :)
