Colton and Liv had planned to spend New Years Eve in Breckenridge, Colorado after a year & a half of dating. It was a special place to him as he’s spent most winter holidays in Breckenridge growing up, & special to Liv for her love of the mountains. It was a Friday when they arrived in Denver & drove to Breckenridge. Liv got altitude sickness that first night (not surprising) & was bedridden for the remainder of the night. Colton was slightly nervous as he had planned a BIG surprise that next morning. The next morning Colton got up early as he had told Liv that they needed to get to brunch early & get their name on the list due to it being a holiday and a ski town. Liv, naively, agreed & rushed out the door by 8am. Colton had told Liv he wanted to grab a quick picture for next year's Christmas card at one of his favorite spots on the way to brunch. Not one minute into the drive Liv shouted “I forgot my sunglasses”! However, Colton was adamant about not turning around... Liv was not pleased. If anyone has light-colored hair & light eyes, they can relate (and being upset without sunglasses). Colton was such a trooper that 20 minute ride. Bless men for putting up with dramatic women. They drove up to the side of a mountain & without hesitation Colton quickly got out of the car & hurried Liv down a path to an overlook spot. Liv pointed out it was -10 DEGREES outside and thought he was crazy for wanting a photo. Yes, 10 below zero. Colton walked Liv down to a spot where two branches laid (perfectly placed) in the middle of an overlook. Luckily for Colton, Liv still didn't know what was going on. Then instantly he grabbed her hands in his, and Liv knew. Colton said a beautiful, sweet speech and asked Liv to marry him! Liv said yes! Out of nowhere, champagne and bottles (frozen bottles might I add) appeared behind a rock (to this day Liv didn’t even notice). Then a few minutes later Colton pointed out a professional photographer behind the tree... who captured it all :)
